Citation of his withdrawal?
great Christian man
He's headed home to Florida. Gonna take time off. Not hitting any other states. May go to National Prayer Breakfast.
Candidates continuing their runs don't do that.
Ok, you lost me there.
Didn't see a citation of anything there. I've googled but haven't come up with a withdrawal statement yet.
Oxymoron.
I didn't say he withdrew. I didn't say it was official.
I said he's done.
And I'm right.![]()
Ok, you lost me there.
I meant the relationship between zika and carson.i checked the news.
Ben Carson Tells Caucus Supporters, ‘People Have Asked, “Is It Worth It?”‘
CLIVE, Iowa — The call for more candidates to speak had come about a half-hour before Ben Carson strolled into the caucus site here. He quickly took the stage.
“People have asked, ‘Is it worth it?’” Mr. Carson said with a smile. “No.”
He waited a beat. There was quick laughter, and then slightly awkward applause. He continued.
“Not if you’re doing it for yourself,” he said. “But the answer is yes if you’re doing it for others.”
Mr. Carson sounded relaxed and spoke candidly. He detailed his reluctance to enter the campaign, saying he was looking forward to retiring, but he could not completely ignore the groundswell around.
“But then along came the ‘run Ben run’ people, and the ‘draft Ben’ group and hundreds of thousands of petitions, and I said maybe it will go away if I ignore it,” he said. “But it didn’t, it kept growing. And I finally said, ‘Lord, you know this is not on my bucket list.’”
He paused. “But if you open the doors, I’ll walk through them.”
He spoke of his faith and of his time in the medical field, joked about never having seen the “Rocky” films, and thanked Iowans for the trust they had placed in him by caucusing for him.
Mike Nason, the director of advance for the Carson campaign, confirmed a shift in travel plans: first reported by CNN Mr. Carson will not go straight to New Hampshire after the caucuses but will be going to Florida instead.
“It’s not like he’s going home, he’s stopping back for 12 hours,” Mr. Nason said. Then, Mr. Carson will go to Washington for the National Prayer Breakfast, then to North Carolina, and then to New Hampshire.
“He’s getting a change of clothes,” Mr. Nason said.
O'Malley is done.
I am officially suspending my campaign. Thank you for all your loyal support. #ImWithHucK
I've always thought Cruz's potential was being underrated.
