To give a serious answer he's a very intelligent man with experience in politics and management. Urban Development isn't really about city planning as much as working with banks making all the little parts of HUD work together. Obama's push to break up the ghettos by the use of HUD grants (which, by the way, I couldn't support more strongly) is a keystone to his plan to lowering crime and fixing the nigger problem. While I doubt Trump will follow the same strategy someone who has fought in the trenches in the battle between local and federal regulation should be qualified to take on Carson's new position.
And by "nigger problem", for you pearl clutchers, I mean the inner city culture that sees hard work and self improvement as selling out.

My guess is, it's probably a position of simply reviewing ideas others have drafted, then approving good ones and cancelling dumbass/corrupt ones.

The guy is a brain surgeon. Probably much better equipped for it than most.

He's actually been a section 8 tenant and he has lived that life; he knows the effects of not having housing on a persons health, especially neurological and mental.. If anyone knows what needs fixed, its him.

True. Besides the administration there of is highly dependent upon execution of existing law. Not like Carson has to reinvent anything to make it not work any more than it does now

It's been fucked up since the new deal. Ie, when the feds started getting involved in urban planning.
