Wish I could rep you for this. Ignorance of basic facts like what the pyramids were used for is NOT the same as a misspeak which clearly---if you view the video---is what Obama did.
Yup sure.. 57 states. lolololol Swifty Obama probably thought each Hawaiian Island was a state.. lololol
No embellishment... fact is he was top in his ROTC class and was looked at as a prospect for West Point. Not bad... not bad at all. Carson was known for his talents.
Not a fact. Even the top ROTC cadet still has to APPLY to WP before being offered a "scholarship".
His class honesty award can not be backed up even though he claims that there was a pic of him receiving a monetary award for being "most honest student".
His childhood friends claim that he was a sweet, smart, quiet kid, nit a violent thug who tried to stab a kid, or hit his mother with a hammer.
And the pyramids were not built by Joseph nor were they grain silos.
Carson is being tripped up by his own words. And when asked to explain the very large discrepancies in what he has written, he cannot do it, because he can't defend or explain away so many lies. So instead he goes off on Obama.
The total spin here is all yours. And who it is over for is Dr. Carson. He's destroyed his reputation and will be heretofore remembered as a pathological liar. I wonder how smart he really is if he never considered that his lies would be exposed by running for president. Did he think everyone would simply believe his self-aggrandizing without question? Apparently so.
I find it funny how the Dems are digging into the past of GOP members to find stuff to use against them. Meanwhile Clinton should be in jail and they see nothing wrong with her running for president. I don't support Carson, and yes some stuff is a little off, but compared the Clinton its minor. This is the problem with politics...
You realize of course that this "digging" just involves reading Carson's autobiography that he has released in the middle of campaigning. He can't have both ways - running on his backstory yet saying his past and claims are off limits to scrutiny.
Ben Carson is just too wonderful ... they have to call him a liar because Hillary is such a liar and lies and lies and lies.. now the media lies as usual... they embellish Carson's words with spin.. the usual.. any one with half a brain can see through the manipulation of the left leaning media.. it no longer passes because the truth is known that Ben Carson is super smart and the left will hopefully try to get something to stick even if it is total spin. It is over for the liberal media.
No, the media did not embellish Carson's words. Look up the page in his book where he wrote about his so-called full scholarship offer from West Point. He tripled down on that statement. In writing. Ben is the one spinning the facts, not the media.

After seeing the shrine to himself that he has turned his house into I think he actually has come to believe his own self-aggrandizing fabrications about himself. Maybe Trump wasn't far off saying Carson suffered from a pathological disease.

And very believable..they would have loved to have Ben Carson at West Point.

I am far from a fan of Carson's but on the topic of the "shrine to himself" I honestly don't see that as anything that should set off alarm bells. Lots of people who have achievements in their career fields have a room full of trophies and awards. Trump has a room full of magazines that features him on the covers, so he should be the last person to call another kettle black. No pun intended.
