No. This is NOT the same thing at all.
They didn’t take him out of context at all. The media followed up with the man and gave him an opportunity to clarify.
He doubled down all on his own.
This is not cut-and-paste journalism here.
Ben Carson is a tin foiler.
He will not be the nominee.
The video of the man in his own words:

What’s funny is that Donald Trump questioned the legitimacy of 0bama’s birth certificate and still does.
I mean, that’s crazy, right?
There is a hierarchy of tin-foilers.
While we are supposed to use the scientific method to evaluate evidence that is based on a foundation of free inquiry, debate, and access to data.
When governments around the world hide key data in the name of national security then scientists in the “open world” can only evaluate the data available to them. That leads to a variety of false and stupid conclusions and discredits science as a discipline. If that was not bad enough government grants tend to warp science in “politically correct” directions and discredit it further.
Bottom line—when we can’t trust the integrity of science then the “tin foilers” have as good a claim on truth as anyone else.
“Ben Carson is a tin foiler.”
Which makes him like about 90% of FReepers. . .
(see any thread related to airline mishaps, disasters, any event where there is loss of life. . .)
