Dr. Ben Carson, a renowned neurosurgeon who grew up in poverty in Detroit and a possible candidate for president in 2016, will return to the city early next month to make an announcement, his campaign office confirmed today.

While the topic of the announcement was not revealed, it is likely linked to Carson's intentions regarding the Republican presidential nomination. Carson, 63, was the first high-profile Republican to formally enter the presidential process when he formed an exploratory committee in early March.

Carson will make his announcement at Detroit's Music Hall Center for the Performing Arts on May 4, his campaign told the Free Press this morning. . .

The GOP Clown Car is filling up rapidly. Get your popcorn ready, that first Iowa debate is going to be a show stopper. Can't wait for the hilarity and the insanity.

20. WRONG!!! You forget Lee Mercer Jr!

Wait a minute...isn't he running as a Democrat?

[MrScorpio]

4. He's probably going to have to bus in a gaggle of supporters from Oakland County...

I'm sure the folks in the city would get tired of his bullshit pretty quickly

[Vinca]

5. I love his latest "position." No selfie sticks!

Does he even know what a POTUS does?

[Paladin]

6. Kind of puts the whining about Hillary's logo in perpective, doesn't it? (nt)

[rurallib]

7. I am hoping he announces he's gay

just to see what the press does.

8. That he's stupid?

[HockeyMom]

9. No DOCTORS for President

Hello NO.

[brooklynite]

14. Just to be clear...that includes Howard Dean as well?

[HockeyMom]

16. Is Howard Dean for forced medical care too?

No informed consent for adults? For ALL medical care, which includes the preventive care of everything from vaccinations to pap tests? I believe in CHOICE, which goes far beyond reproduction.

Medicine, and big Pharams, have far too much power as it is.

18. "“The parents own the children"

creepy.

[krishnarama]

10. I thought he stumbled in already...

when he let us know he was brain-farting for 2016.

Saw Carson '16 bumper stickers soon after...

I guess the announcement is that he's endorsing $HOT_SEXY_GOP_OF_THE_DAY and dropping out to obscurity.

[KeepItReal]

11. That he's running with Herman Cain? Please please please!

it would be comedy GOLD!

[wysi]

12. Renowned?

I wouldn't let this clown slice a salami.

15. SAD. Great doctor but a NUTCASE as a politician.

[niyad]

17. yesterday in a parking lot, a car had a "carson/condi 2016 dream ticket" bumper sticker.

sadly, that wasn't the sickest or most offensive sticker on that car.

19. Is Carson the new Alan Keyes?
