The "BS" to which i was referring was your statement that because he received a full scholarship to Yale he "certainly" qualified for West Point.

And you have yet to provide evidence that he wasn't.

I already told you that I did not say Ben Carson was unqualified for West Point. That being the case, I am under no obligation to provide evidence that he was not qualified.

The only thing I take issue with is your asinine claim that being offered a scholarship to Yale "certainly" qualifies a person for West Point. That is not true and it has never been true. It is also incredibly insulting to anyone who has ever received an appointment to West Point. It is more difficult to get in to the USMA than it is to get a scholarship to Yale.

Maybe you should provide some evidence to support your claim that an offer of a scholarship to Yale automatically qualifies a person for an appointment to West Point.
