Ben Carson on Being Trump’s VP: ‘All Things Are Possible’

ACOSTA: “Let's turn now to the Republican race for the White House, where there's another potential ticket being buzzed about. A Trump ally told Politico this weekend the front-runner is eying fellow outsider candidates Ben Carson or Carly Fiorina as running mates. With us now to talk about this is the Republican presidential candidate Dr. Ben Carson. Dr. Carson, good morning. Thanks for joining us.”

CARSON: “Good morning.”

ACOSTA: “Does the prospect of a Biden/Warren ticket worry you very much?”

CARSON: “No, it doesn't. You know, I am very happy with whatever they come up with, because I think this election will be a very excellent opportunity for the American people to make a clear choice. I don't think it will to be muddied.”

ACOSTA: “And, Dr. Carson, would you be willing to serve as Donald Trump's vice president? This is something that was sort of bandied about in the media this week. It is summer of the outsider. In just about all the polls, the top two Republicans are yourself and Donald Trump. Would you serve as his running mate? Would you want him to serve as your running mate?”

CARSON: “All things are possible, but it is much too early to begin such conversations.”

ACOSTA: “All things are possible. OK.”
