The National Draft Ben Carson for President Committee is a political action committee formed to draft Dr. Ben Carson into the race for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination. It was founded in August 2013 by John Philip Sousa IV and Vernon Robinson, and works to raise awareness of Dr. Carson’s qualifications and to engage grassroots conservative activists in clamoring for Dr. Carson to run for president.
With over 20,000 volunteers nationwide, the committee has been able to raise more than $11 million dollars. The committee also has a goal of collecting 1 million petition signatures by January 1, 2015.
Tonight John Philip Sousa IV, the great-grandson of the great march composer, joins us.
