Someone did even if it were just Carson and his political allies. What do you think energized Carson to get into the race for POTUSA?
83 days til the Iowa Caucus. Time for Trump to smother Carson in his crib. Carson has got to go. An unpleasant but necessary task. Trump needs to wrap up the nomination and move on to Hillary.
Trump better do that sooner than later.
Politico now finds that Dr. Carson never was given a slot at West Point and never even applied! Of course, Dr. Carson never said he either applied or was admitted - just that someone said they could get him in.
Where are the lies?
It was in August 2014 that Dr. Carson approved the formation of a political action committee, and by September 2014 Carson is quoted as saying it was likely he’d run. He terminated his relationship with FoxNews in November of that same year.
On May 3, 2015, Dr. Carson announced he was running. Mr. Trump announced his candidacy on June 16, 2015.
It’s your contention, then, that more than a month before Mr. Trump announced his bid, Carson entered the race to take away from Trump’s support?
“From Robostop10, not Trump.”
Exactly. However the hypocrites in this thread pushing their lie are as bad as Political.
Yep.
CBS now concerned that Carson may not have been truthful is his autobiography. Now isn’t that sweet, since there were no similar concerns regarding Obie’s...
LOL, love it. A memo must have gone out, time to take Carson down.
Seems so. Not a Carson supporter by any stretch, but this mess really ticks me off.
No kidding. I heard Carson talking to Hannity today, and when Sean asked him whether or not he actually spoke with Gen. Westmoreland, he replied, "I may have."
Holy moly.....even in the midst of all this controversy, he lets a detail that important just dangle in limbo. Crickey....
Judging from the traffic I saw on earlier threads, it appeared to me that most Freepers were buying into the Politico spin. Your mileage may vary.
I really dislike Carson for a variety of reasons but it seems there is a coordinated effort to destroy him. Haven’t figured out why yet, seems it only benefits Rubio and Cruz.
The lion’s share of the Carson support will fall to Trump and he knows it. He wants to get this nomination wrapped up. Its time for Carson to go so he can really concentrate on finishing off Rubio. Iowa is coming right up. Then NH.
Personally I get the feeling Ben Carson does not know what he thinks from one day to the next. He appears to be drugged up. I don’t mean he’s a drug addict I mean meds.
I don’t know about that. I don’t believe that Trump is behind all of this but I do believe someone is. If Carson falls, Rubio and Cruz move up in the polls.
THAT is a very interesting hypothesis.
Carson will be on the Factor tonight walking back his original version of the story. Politico already changed their headline.
It's pretty mysterious. I heard Carson being interviewed by Sean Hannity yesterday, and he sounded like he was talking from some parallel dimension. I mean, the guy doesn't sound anything like a presidential candidate. More like someone just woke him up from a dream or something.
I'm not quite sure what to make of the way he speaks, but it's a distraction, that's for sure.
I’ll be glad to see Carson call it a day and go back to his private life.
