Carson Inexplicably Considers Trip To Australia To Help Him Win Iowa
[su_center_b]
Ben Carson has to burnish his foreign policy credentials, but why a trip to Australia is being considered makes no sense.
Asia and Africa have been mentioned in internal discussions, as has Australia, where he worked as a neurosurgeon in 1983, a campaign official told CBS News.
The official said Carson and his advisers are looking at ways to own news cycles, acknowledging that the recent focus on national security has hurt him in the polls. An overseas trip could burnish his foreign policy credentials, the official said. It would also be “eye opening” and “attention getting” and a way to command coverage leading up to the first voting contest.
The official said nothing has been set, but because Carson now has a Secret Service detail, they have reached out to government agencies to explore what would be needed as they contemplate a trip.
