“As a teenager, I would go after people with rocks, and bricks, and baseball bats, and hammers. And, of course, many people know the story when I was 14 and I tried to stab someone.”
— Ben Carson, quoted by CNN, adding “I’m a very different person now.”
Sounds like a nice guy! And some Right Wingers trashed Obama because he smoked weed!

At this early stage of the GOP Primary, my view is that Marco Rubio will eventually end up the GOP Nominee. It's not that I have faith in Republican Voters, it's that the GOP will come to make some pragmatic decisions and bounce the more crazy candidates out of the running.
So, looking to the future of the 2016 contest... a comment on Rubio:
Quoted Text
When pressed during a CNN interview about why he thinks federal workers should be fired for not doing their jobs while he has missed the most votes in the Senate, Sen. Marco Rubio put his foot in his mouth and said that voting in the Senate is not important for a Senator.
In Rubio's own words:

“A lot of these votes don’t mean anything. They’re not going to pass, and even if they did, the President would veto them.”
(Question)“Someone might say you’re not showing up. You’re not doing your job by voting.”
“Not true. Because voting is not the most important part of the job. The most important thing that a Senator does is constituent services. ”

Ben Carson “told graduates during a commencement address in the late ’90s that he believed the pyramids in Egypt were built by the biblical figure Joseph to store grain, and not, as most archeologists contend, as tombs for pharaohs,” BuzzFeed reports.
Said Carson: “My own personal theory is that Joseph built the pyramids to store grain. Now all the archeologists think that they were made for the pharaohs’ graves. But, you know, it would have to be something awfully big if you stop and think about it. And I don’t think it’d just disappear over the course of time to store that much grain.”
Any one else think that Joseph built the pyramids or that they were built for grain storage???

James Carville told Bloomberg that Sen. Marco Rubio is the GOP’s best possible nominee for president. (I agree with James. He's the best GOP choice and the most electable of the group.)
Said Carville: “He is the only hope that they have that they don’t get 45% of the vote, and they know it… I don’t think he can win, but he can get over 45%."

Carson Plummets in Polls Amid Reports He Did Not Stab Anyone
Quoted Text
DES MOINES (The Borowitz Report)—New reports indicating that Ben Carson might not have actually stabbed anyone during his youth have sent the retired neurosurgeon plummeting in the latest Republican Presidential polls.
Carson supporters, reeling from the news that their candidate’s past might have been devoid of stabbing, have deserted his candidacy in droves, suggesting that Republican voters viewed Carson’s stabbing as a key part of his résumé.

WASHINGTON - Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson's campaign on Friday acknowledged he never applied nor was accepted to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point - a tale he included in his autobiography and that he has repeated since then, POLITICO reported on Friday.
Carson's campaign said the account of receiving a scholarship offer from the prestigious military school was a fabrication.
