It does seem to me that Carson has *enhanced* events to make a better story about himself. To me ... it’s looking like a Brian William’s sort of deal ... where you exaggerate for the sake of a story. That’s fine for you and me around the water cooler at work. But *enhancing* as a tv news person or a politician running for office ... not particularly a smart move.
I have other concerns about Carson ... mainly where he stands on issues important to me. The latest drip, drip, drip of Carson’s stories not quite adding up ... yeah, they’re not exactly improving my opinion of Dr. Carson.
Like Shakespeare's "recalling with advantages" in his "St Crispin's Day" Speech? Horrors. Willie would be shocked. St. Crispin Crispian would be shocked.
Horridity runs riot, its name is Dr. Carson.
Meh.
I don’t know why, but it does seem to me too that Carson has *enhanced* events to make himself look better. That can turn dangerous.
It’s not all that uncommon for people in the private sector to “pad” their resume with either fictitious or enhanced activities and/or accomplishments. And, many employers sort of expect resumes to be a bit enhanced, and will just accept that unless it is really bad.
But, when you are a Republican running for POTUS, you better believe you are going to get a thorough anal exam, especially if you are a non politician, and every discrepancy is going to be checked. It seems non politicians are held to a higher standard than politicians, possibly because lying and conniving have come to be accepted as OK and part of the game of politics. This is why I feel, contrary to the prevailing current sentiment, that we’d be better off with the most conservative politician we can get, and that is my man, Ted Cruz.
