not a prerequisite to be president especially if your comments imply it was your own half a brain removed.    http://www.nationaljournal.com/2016-elections/ben-carson-2016-controversial-quotes-20150504

UPDATE; those links below seem to have disappeared they were there before he moved up in the polls makes you go hmmmmmmmmmmm??????

It was only a matter of time until a physician caught Dr. Ben Carson out as a hypocrite.

Dr. Carson, like everyone, is entitled to an opinion no matter how wrong, What he says doesn’t change the fact that fetal tissue  plays a vital role in medical research. For example it is being used to develop a vaccine against Ebola. 

Many researchers depend on fetal tissue to understand and hopefully develop treatment for a myriad of conditions from blindness to HIV. Without fetal tissue neurosciences research, something essential for the development of neurosurgical techniques, would be far less developed. Dr. Carson should be intimately aware of this fact.

Dr. Ben Carson, a neurosurgeon who is seeking the GOP nomination for President, is opposed to foetal tissue research. He claims nothing can be learned from it that cannot be learned in another way. He has flogged this position on FOX News Channel and on Breitbart.

Unsurprisingly, he is a hypocrite. While giving that opinion repeatedly, during campaign events and the FOX News Channel Presidential debates, he neglected to mention his own paper, where he used foetal tissue for research.

(The second link goes to the Pubmed abstract, the first link has photographs of the original article published in a journal. He used nine- and seventeen-week foetal tissue in his research.)

He falls into the same camp as certain pro-lifers who argue “my abortion is okay but yours is immoral.” In Dr. Carson’s case, that would be, “My foetal tissue research is okay but yours is immoral.” (Doubly for his position on defunding Planned Parenthood, where he likely got his foetal tissue for his moral research.)

it takes a lot of education and training for certain specialty jobs but like some who attain that status they have very little common sense or pretty much any other kind of sense, understandable it takes years of study to be a neurosurgeon which leave little time to develop socially or personally but the statements he has made just don't fit even a socially challenged person, they are designed to denigrate his own race and promote the obnoxious despicable agenda of soulless beings not presidents but those they want to get rid of in other countries like Bin Laden, Saddam, Assad and the like.
