-------------------------------------------------------------


 
Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson's own advisers have
acknowledged he is struggling to comprehend foreign policy. Carson, who
is the leading Republican candidate in some polls, has blundered on the
topic of foreign policy, including wrongly claiming China is involved
militarily in Syria. Speaking to The New York Times, a top Carson
adviser said, "Nobody has been able to sit down with [Carson] and have
him get one iota of intelligent information about the Middle East."
