He made it official, telling a crowd in his hometown of Detroit that he’s running for president.
“I’m Ben Carson, and I’m a candidate for president of the United States,”
Carson, an African American who grew up poor in Detroit rose to become a chief pediatric neurosurgery at the prestigious Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, added his name to the widening field.
He joins Senators Ted Cruz, Rand Paul and Marco Rubio, who are already seeking to take the party’s standard in the 2016 election.
Also seen as likely to run are former Florida governor Jeb Bush and Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker.
