Did you expect the doctor to endorse Ted Cruz?

Yes he could, but why? He has to be pissed off at Ted Cruz for the dirty tricks a few weeks ago right? And after the gang of eight it's tough to work up support for Marco Rubio.
I kind of suspect my boy John Kasich doesn't have much Nationwide appeal.
Perhaps all of the above would be a better route for a Republican.

Trump doesn't seem to match with Carson's public persona. I can understand his beef with Cruz. Rubio and Kasich are dead in the water.

I wouldn't have expected him to go with Cruz either but the same goes with Carson endorsing Trump. At this point in the race with the odds heavily in Trump's favor to win the nomination I have to believe jumping on the winning bandwagon is driving some of the endorsements for Trump. I kind of thought Carson would go with Kasich or Rubio or as Logic posted none of the above.

I hope that is the case.

Carson is anti establishment like Trump, really isn't that surprising.
-
But wait, isn't Cruz as well?!
-
-
What I read, was more hesitation on completing supporting either Trump or Carson.
Nobody should be in this presidential race that is in it, still.
For either party, ...but maybe I'll make an exception to Kasich...
-
Ben Carson not only gave Trump his endorsement, but also some of his Ambien before last night's debate.

I hope that is the case.
Do you want Hillary to be the president? Because a brokered convention where Trump is not the candidate is how Hillary wins in a landslide.

trump IS hillary. a manipulating, opportunistic, flippity-floppity, friend of prominent rabid dems...
donater to dem campaigns......
of course the dems frantically want him to run.
Kinda like rob portman of Ohio. all for Real Marriage..... until his son came out
as gay, so he reversed his stand on that.
We'll have to hope his son doesn't want to ban all guns...eh?

If it helps, I don't want him to win the nomination. If he does, you'll get people voting for Hillary just because she's not Trump, or you'll get people voting for Trump because he's the drunk uncle, and the biggest losers will be democracy and America. I would much rather the republicans put up a capable candidate such that the presidential race focuses on issues.
You talk about a 'divider in chief' - one of your many catchphrases - but Trump would be that in spades.

Building a wall would be an example of democracy in action, seeing as it's mostly the uneducated voters in the south who want it. As far as being a divider, it doesn't matter who wins the election, half the country will be upset with it, and it's been like that forever.
The TPP is an example of the failure of democracy. The will of the people was ignored to satisfy the desires of the fatcats in Congress.

I was disappointed in Carson at first about this but I really can't fault him too much for endorsing Trump. He is right Kasich is already mathematically eliminated from the race. Rubio is now out of the race. I hoped he might support Cruz but after what happened in Iowa with the Cruz campaign saying prematurely that Carson was getting out of the race I can understand why he wouldn't want to support Cruz. In the end Trump was all that was left and if he is being honest about working in a Trump administration I give him credit for being up front about it (even though Trump himself was hinting when Carson endorsed him that he might find a spot for Carson in his administration).
-
It's a position working for the campaign, not the administration.
I suspect that everybody would have offered Carson something for his endorsement. Cruz would have probably given his left nut except he doesn't have any.
