QOTD: The Ben Carson campaign

When asked how they expected to win the race:
“Well, we clearly don’t know. We don’t have a well defined path to victory,” Carson campaign chairman Bob Dees told the Washington Examiner Tuesday in an interview. “But we think the opportunity still exists for people to wake up and that’s what we’re hoping.”
“Thomas Jefferson talked about that. He said that democracy depends on well-informed voters,” Dees continued. “He also said that he thought America would go down this path and the people would be manipulated [but] just before it was too late, people would wake up and regain their senses and start doing the right thing. We are hopeful that that occurs, and that along the way, people start doing the right thing.”
Just don’t wake up before you send the last few dollars in your savings account to Ben Carson’s magical presidential campaign headquarters. Somebody’s going to need a fancy vacation this summer.
