This morning, Dr. Ben Carson announced that he would be in the running for the GOP nomination in 2016.
How long do you think David Axelrod had been waiting to unleash this one?
I suspect Dr. Ben Carson is about to learn that running for President of the United States is not brain surgery.

He’s ready to hit the stage at the Improv!

It was actually kind of a compliment to Carson, wasn’t it?
I think this is meant to be a slight, but brain surgery seems a more noble act than running for president, no? https://t.co/nskZWXX4S0

#BadJoke: does this former @WhiteHouse POTUS #Obama advisor know it's "not brain surgery" = it's not complicated? https://t.co/M9HzSOmKDm

@davidaxelrod Running the government is better done by those who have a brain than by brain-dead liberals. @RealBenCarson

@davidaxelrod @DavidMDrucker just like it's not community organizing.

@davidaxelrod this might be the most "dad joke" of all dad jokes I've ever heard.

An accomplished brain surgeon can do your job with a hand tied behind his back and you can't do his job at all. Got it. Thanks @davidaxelrod

If a community organizer can do it… @davidaxelrod: I suspect Dr. Carson is about to learn that running for President is not brain surgery.

@davidaxelrod so you're saying… It will be easy for him?

@davidaxelrod I suspect an accomplished brain surgeon already knows that. He's smart enough not to set up a private email server too.

But maybe Axelrod’s right, and “brain surgeon” isn’t the most appropriate medical background:
