He has been dismissed as a neophyte, a political simpleton, and a joke. But new polling suggests that this political outsider is a serious threat to Hillary Clinton. As Breitbart notes:
Two weeks ago the DC media launched a coordinated 10 day racist hate campaign against Dr. Ben Carson. A new CNN poll shows that this campaign backfired spectacularly. A new polls shows that Carson’s support leapt +7 points to 22%. He is now in second place behind Donald Trump, who is up +3 at 27%. In the general election, Carson also beats Hillary 48% – 47%.
The broader efforts to label Carson a dangerous extremist are part of a broader media narrative that says the popularity of Trump and Carson is due to an extreme shift in the GOP. But the fact that the two men are running campaigns that are totally opposite, paired with democratic enthusiasm for Bernie Sanders, suggests that this is more about cynicism with the professional political class. Perhaps no candidate embodies that more than Hillary Clinton. So it’s no surprise that Carson absolutely obliterates her in the polls.
