Ben Carson: Names of some childhood victims are 'fictitious' [W:89]

Re: Ben Carson: Names of some childhood victims are 'fictitious'

I have a theory. Maybe the kid Ben Carson was trying to stab as a child was... himself. It was not a literal act of violence, but rather an introspective battle that took place in Carson's own mind. In trying to eliminate his dark side ("Bob"), his metaphorical knife broke. This taught Benny (his "good" self) that his dark side could not be overcome with force -- but must be incorporated into his greater self. Thus, Carson emerged from this inner battle with a new perspective and outlook on life.

Again, I am not deflecting onto Obama. I find no cause to be upset with either Carson's or Obama's telling of their life story. I am pointing out the bias in CNN coverage of the two candidates personal stories.

Of course you're not deflecting :lamo

Also, that really was a Nigerian Prince who e-mailed you about making your penis bigger.

Sounds like the book deal was more important than the presidency. He probably knows that he really has zero chance of winning. He has to know since he is playing second fiddle to someone like Trump. A Trump/Carson ticket would be entertaining to watch. The media would have a field day. A Trump/Carson ticket would promise that a Democrat would win, its the Democrats best hope for the presidency.

Yup.

And if dems were smart (they aren't though), they would register as republicans and vote for Trump in the primary.
