Ben Carson has an incredible riff to describe how the brain accomplishes even the simplest of tasks
In an incredible video unearthed by Mother Jones' David Corn last Friday, the Republican presidential candidate asked an audience if they would raise their hands if they could remember the date of their birthdays.
Naturally, everyone raised their hands.
To tout the complexity of the human brain, Carson launched into a one-minute, rapid-fire explanation of what occurred inside the audience members' bodies when they raised their hands.
"And that's the simplified version of what your brain had to do. See if you can get one of those rap singers to do that," he joked afterwards.
