--Dr. Ben Carson endorsed Donald Trump’s presidential candidacy after Trump promised him an "advisory" role in the administration,
(

which is a clear, undeniable, intentional violation of campaign law, even if the 'promise' is indirect.
(18 U.S. Code § 599 - Promise of appointment by candidate
Whoever, being a candidate, directly or indirectly promises or pledges the appointment, or the use of his influence or support for the appointment of any person to any public or private position or employment, for the purpose of procuring support in his candidacy shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both; and if the violation was willful, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years, or both.)
Petition the Attorney General to investigate and prosecute ANY clear violation of this law.
