Pathological: Most Of Ben Carson’s Life Is A Lie

- Опубліковано 8 лис 2015
- Ben Carson is a guy who’s been getting a lot of media attention because he’s currently polling first among GOP primary candidates. Also, he has a long history of lying that is now coming back to haunt him. His main defense appears to be whining about “gotcha” questions. Cenk Uygur, host of the The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"The Wall Street Journal fact-checked another claim in the retired neurosurgeon's 1990 autobiography, "Gifted Hands," and found more evidence of a potentially fabricated story. The Journal's Reid Epstein reported:
"Mr. Carson writes of a Yale psychology professor who told Mr. Carson, then a junior, and the other students in the class-identified by Mr. Carson as Perceptions 301-that their final exam papers had “inadvertently burned,” requiring all 150 students to retake it. The new exam, Mr. Carson recalled in the book, was much tougher. All the students but Mr. Carson walked out.
The professor came toward me. With her was a photographer for the Yale Daily News who paused and snapped my picture,” Mr. Carson wrote. “‘A hoax,’ the teacher said. ‘We wanted to see who was the most honest student in the class.’” Mr. Carson wrote that the professor handed him a $10 bill."
However, The Journal spoke with Yale Librarian Claryn Spies, who said that there was never a class called Perceptions 301 at the school, and a search of YDN turned up no sign of such a picture.
It's another confounding instance of inaccuracies in anecdotes about the life and belief system of Carson.”*

I'm starting to wonder if he's even black.
+Ryan Swanson He is probably lying about it. LOL!
I read somewhere that he's 80% black and 20% white
+Caleb Paulsson I read somewhere he is not even human
+Faizan Malik I read somewhere that he's not even real 0_o
+Ryan Swanson Can anyone back up him being real? If not, you're probably right.
At this point how do we even know that he's actually running for president?
I'm pretty sure he's not lol
+John Nelson tbh I think this guy is an identity thief who just stole dr ben carson's identity at some point.
Ben Carson "dreamed one dream about a chemistry book" to the point where he passed an exam that qualified him to be a medical doctor? Rudy Giuliani can't remember a Senator from New York walking with him on 911, the most important day of his political career? Donald Trump claims to be a "brilliant businessman", but the only time he ever really made a lot of money was when Daddy handed him some or he filed for bankruptcy? Is there something somehow wrong about these people and their thinking?
He fits in very well with the Trump regime.
Did Ben Carson enter the race in May, 2015 to promote what I gather is his eleventh book because he could no longer work as a neurosurgeon? He resigned as neurosurgeon in March, 2013, prematurely, given his age. His slow blink, slow speech (in contrast to speeches given years ago) and often closed eyes are characteristic of various neurological disorders. He has bested carnival master Trump in getting into the news every day with truely outlandish statements. He is the first Presidential candidate in history to take 3 weeks off to do a book tour. I wonder if America has become a pawn to the ultimate retirement nest building plan and that Carson has no intention of becoming president.
+Mary G Win - win. He wins, he's President. He loses, he's rich!
wow....you sheep can be led anywhere to believe anything...you depend on the Pillsbury Dough Boy for accurate information? How sad!
+Mary G
Well, if what he wants most is to make a lot of money, it's working for him. There are plenty of morons helping him achieving his goal.
+Karen Robart hell yeah I trust the Pillsbury dough boy for accurate Intel!! he lets me know when my baked goods are "poppin' fresh!" and does so with an adorable chortle! Scam Carson on the other hand, I wouldn't trust that thing to point me in the right direction down a one way street.
+Karen Robart ......says the woman who subscribes to channels for clairvoyants, psychic mediums, and miracle healers. LOL
An angel came into his dream and gave him the chemistry test answer key.
Yeah! Ben is not smart, the damn angel took all his test for him.
+Teammm N even with that he only got 97% lolz.
the angel ate his homework
+meeg_2005 Like his wife Candy and ger gifted "Voice" !
grow some hair bitch
As an African-American woman AND a Christian, I say, "You nailed this". Totally. Thank you.
Carson is the worst liar I have ever seen or heard. His tough guy stories are absolutely unbelievable. He has to close his eyes to shut out the untruths he spurts. I have no doubt he was and remains a studious, quiet nerd, and introvert, a dork, a specialist in medicine, AND THAT'S ALL HE IS.
Ben Carson is just another person who tries desperately to seek attention by making up stories.
+DeagleBeagle to be fair though when you consider the kinds of people he's trying to appeal to it makes sense.
+DeagleBeagle really,as a dr i find your comments really laughable.why not go to John Hopkins,spend a day in Paediatric neurosurgery,see the little children with brain tumours and follow them to theatre and see how the operation goes.Then come back and comment.
A single day in Ben's life in last 50 years recounted would be a best seller
He doesnt need to embellish any story and certainly not a stupid one.
Wake up.think big and see the big picture.
this guys want to destroy America and Ben is too sharp for them and a threat to their progress.They just gave you a muslim president in Hussein Obama,they use the press to destroy your psychology to believe theirs lies.
terence Che The guy who claims Obama is a muslim is then going to lecture us about believing lies.......the irony is ironic.
nah, he is trying to divert attention.......who will think im gay if I pretend to be violent, gays being weak and all.
+SLRok He lost me at 'Paediatric', following comments about how Ben's 'too sharp for them' and the ridiculous claims that Obama is a muslim (anytime anyone says that despite all evidence to the contrary you know you might have a racist right wing nut on your hands). Carson's just another demagogue who appeals to the Republican ideals even though it really seems as though he had a completely different upbringing.
I don't care if he lies, cheats, stabs, what say you. I absolutely do not want a 7th day Adventist in the office or any hardcore Religious affiliation for that matter.
I've dated 4 doctors in a row, unintentionally. I guess I just have a knack for attracting arrogant overachievers. The point is, not that it has anything to do with them being docs/med students, they all turned out to be psychos. One after the other was emotionally unstable, needy, stalker, liars. I'm not saying these cases had anything to do with them being doctors. The point is, being a doctor has nothing to do with being superior in any way. Doctors can be crazy losers too. I would go so far as to say that perhaps there is something to do with the aspiration to be a godlike savior of lives which depends on a fractious ego.
I am the last guy to defend this man, but just after I got out of basic training in 1977, not more than a couple months after I landed in my permanent duty station, my squad leader came to me and told me that I had been given a "full scholarship to West Point". Those are exactly the words he used. If there was something else he should've called it, I do not believe he knew what that more appropriate or more accurate term would have been. He said I was receiving this "college scholarship to West Point" due to my high scores on my military entrance exams.
I was asked to come down to the company command's HQ to discuss the matter with my CO. After his pitch designed to convince me to except this honor, I was given a few days to make my decision.
I had just gotten out of basic training, and the only thing I felt in my heart about the military at that point was that I wanted to do my time and get the hell out. If they're going to offer you West Point and they should give you a few months to decompress from basic training before they throw a nine year commitment at you. That is four years Of West Point and then a five year commitment to the military after graduation as a sort of reciprocation for the free college.
They should also not allow this great honor to be offered by a socially retarded line Captain, who otherwise would never think of speaking to anyone in his command other than his subordinate officers or the senior CEOs in his command. Captain Smith awkwardly attempted to explain to me, an 18-year-old green private, why I should accept this "Scholarship to West Point" and give the next nine years of my life to the military.
His clearly uncomfortable inept explanation was literally the most awkward moments of my entire military experience. Neither one of us wanted that meeting to last any longer than necessary.
My point is, that ever since I turned it down, I have always called it the time I was offered a "West Point scholarship". To be perfectly candid, I did not know enough about it to call it anything else. I did not come from a family that discussed college in anyway and the only way I had heard that anything like free college was referred to, was as a "scholarship".
Of course Ben Carson was surely more sophisticated than I was and he should probably have known the proper terminology. He probably at the very least knows better by now than to call it a "scholarship". But, maybe, like me, that is how he is always refer to it. To change the specificity or accuracy of his reference may have seemed as inconsequential and unnecessary to him, as it does to me even after watching your story.
So we're perfectly clear, this is the only time I will ever be found discussing any point where I am taking the side of Ben Carson. His views In regards to the American people, our country, and the world in general is completely skewed and dangerously warped.
actually, the correct term is an "appointment" at West Point.
Wayment, didn't he say that even if he did get and A he wouldn't have passed anyway?
+lola bigcups Quite.
+lola bigcups I like the verbal spelling, it is charming.
meaturama I was repeating what he said.
+lola bigcups Quite.
+meaturama I don't know what university you went to, but 90% and above is an A. He clearly said even if he aced it, he would fail. Did you have a dream where an angel taught you how to be poorly condescending?
Pretty sure Carson would be diagnosed as a sociopath.
Doesn't surprise me that Rump would appoint someone like himself a boastful liar.
One my best friends in Baltimore years ago was a nurse at Johns Hopkins Hospital, and she held Dr. Carson in the highest esteem. I'll take her word over the word of people with political and religious biases. He is a great man who will do an excellent job as Director of Housing and Urban Development. He is excellent proof that living in projects/public housing is no excuse for hatred and violence or for not taking responsibility for improving your place in life. Oh, THAT'S why liberals hate him.
annlynn9 mr carson didn't grow up in the projects/ghetto,but he is smart at neurosurgery , but thats his only realm of intelligence,like a savant,in everything else he is utterly moronic it's scary
Cenk...... it's belt buckle. A buckle belt would be a belt made of buckles
hahah.... I thought I might be the only one... he says it 4 times too! amazing! I only laugh because this is the type of thing cenk picks on people for.
+Deondre Clark thank you so much for saying something...that's been driving me crazy!
He only said it like that 'cause Ben Carson said it that way when he told the story.
+Deondre Clark I've already patented it. I'm gonna be rich!
+dry bones fan 93 yoshi Long live Spock!
uncle Ben ruckus
yup!
+Marco Antônio No relation.
At least uncle ruckus dosnt lie
stanley oleyte
I apologize to ruckus, then
I went to Loma Linda University, an Adventist med school. Carson's reputation has gone much, much farther than his career as a surgeon ever could have. He was in charge of a very famous surgery to separate a set of Egyptian twin sisters conjoined at the head. Once the surgery began, it was blatantly obvious to everyone in attendance that he had not prepared any sort of strategy or plan ahead of time. Shortly into the surgery, they both died. There is a documentary about the sisters, the failed surgery, and their deaths on the internet. He is only shown and mentioned briefly. The documentary is more about the life experiences of the sisters, their hopes for a normal life, and their ultimate demise. But, within the circles of the medical community, he has zero credibility, skills, or even competence.
You will rot Cenk. This man understood the anatomy and physiology of the human brain to such an extent that he devised a plan to remove half a pediatric patient's brain, and due to it's elasticity, the child could grow up and lead a normal life.
All the more sad that he willingly sacrificed his rational mind to stagnant far-right orthodoxy. Now he's just a chattering Trump parrot.
To any conservatives that says this is unfair. Let me refresh your memory real quick. Remember when another person who was black was running for president and he received criticism for the stuff that he wrote in his biography and his stuff was actually true. Yea, pay back is a bitch ain't it.
He's the black version of trump, except he is self-made, not born to money.
Has anyone ever accused "The Young Turks" of being honest?
+Tom Vyse - Ben Carson, like most bigots, tried to tell us that there were no gays in the military. He later tried to claim that there were no gays in professional sports. He later tried to claim that there were no gay black racial minorities. He's the welfare baby who fights welfare? A bigot and a hypocrite?
Has anyone ever accused Ben Carson of telling the truth about anything?
Just another pathological liar. He fits right in with Trump.
He said:
" Even if I got an "A" I would not pass.... an angel came to me in my sleep and I Aced the Test... and passed Chemistry...?? HOW???
Exactly!
He's a public official. Ben, like the apprentice potus, is open to scrutiny, every aspect of his life.That is undebatable. And if he created an autobiography that is now found to be more fanciful than factual that must be exposed. Autobiography is the least truthful of all narrative forms.
you all probably dont give a shit but does anybody know of a trick to log back into an instagram account??
I was dumb lost the password. I would love any tricks you can give me!
@Remington Harlan Instablaster ;)
@Toby Ezra Thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm in the hacking process now.
Takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Toby Ezra it did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thank you so much you saved my account !
@Remington Harlan you are welcome xD
Jesus Christ I sure hope this guy didn't con and lie his way through med school the same way he has apparently conned and lied his way through his entire life... 😨🙏
All I'm saying is, not so sure I'd want this guy operating on _my_ brain...!!
Carson never claimed he was violent. He said he had a bad temper and had one violent incident.
How could you accuse him of lying? He was the most honest student at Yale. He'll tell you so himself.
+D Mc I think you meant West Point.
*****
Nope. Yale.
He will say and do anything for money and fame , he obviously failed the recognised way so now he has sold his soul to the devil .
As a medical doctor, I'm having a hard time believing that man is a neurologist, pediatric neuro surgeon. Scary stuff
Dr. K I absolutely concur!
Agreed. His claimed professional credentials and past don't jibe with the person we see publicly today. No way he's a neurosurgeon.
I do and don't understand your confusion. On one hand we expect neurosurgeons to be 'smart.' But on the other surgeons can be: liars, narcissistic and phonies. So in that way it makes sense to me. He is not the only surgeon with a self proclaimed onus of 'gifted hands.'
Patricia Duffy I totally agree with you. I'll just add that I seriously believe that theirs something mentally wrong with Dr C and it has been for a very long time!!!
@@sapphirestrm A neurosurgeon may have to be "skillful and smart" in his/her field, but not necessarily "intelligent" which is a much more the more dimensional and complex concept. Carson is a case in point.
This is so sinister holy shit
That level of betrayal tho, he's capitalizing on black stereotypes, pandering to those supposedly his and his race's enemies, and selling out people of his skin colour.
The man is unbalanced. That has been obvious for some time.
Okay, but...WHAT ABOUT BEN GHAZI?!!
+Andre B What does Carson have to do with ben ghazi? You know something we don't know???
+JBrumley32771 You know that was a joke-comment, right?
+Andre B Yes, of course Andre. It was so funny that I couldn't resist adding to it! :)
JBrumley32771 Oh, okay. Just wanted to be sure. Ya never know with the internet and everything. :P
Also, FRICKING BEN GHAZI!! HE'S ALWAYS MAKING STUFF UP!! TnT
I'm...... really..... offended.... by..... these..... accusations...... against..... me. - Ben Carson
I feel bad for Ben Carson , he has saved alot of people's lives . I know two people personally that he saved. I wish he never got into politics.
Billy Sherman
I'm sure there are a lot of pedophile doctors out there. I bet they saved a lot of peoples lives. Then went out and molested children. Wrong is wrong. You trying to give him a pass for his current transgressions isn't going to work.
ro he huh...........he's not a pedo, so terrible example. Not in the same league.
He could have made a great career in politics if he wasn’t such a bad liar.
Like who lies about such nonsenses? 🤔
Yes, it really is a poetic example of the seduction of fame.
I feel bad for people who believed in him and bought his books. Clearly he has a tenuous relationship with the truth.
To be fair to Ben, when Cenk says "who calls their book _Gifted Hands_?" Maybe the first person to ever... *ever* successfully separate conjoined twins that were connected at the heads.
I in no way want Ben to be the next President but unprecedented feats in surgery are worthy of boastful behaviors. It's in no way comparative to Cenk calling a book about himself _Gifted Mouth_. Yes, Cenk is the owner of the largest online news site so one could argue "unprecedented" but I beg to differ. Apples and Oranges.
Ben is a liar though which isn't cool... his voice bothers me too.
I'm not even sure if i can believe carson's twin story now...
+Ryan Swanson Ryan, why do you just take Ben at his word that the twins were "successfully" separated? They are both brain damaged from the surgery, according to several reports. One is completely incapacitated. The parents are reportedly very unhappy with the outcome of the surgery. Ryan, I would just say, don't believe anything you see on tv (especially in the political realm) until you verify it.
+Lisa Murphy damn sweetie, haha you completely shutdown that comment.
+Lisa Murphy What she said.
+Lisa Murphy I've since done a bit of research and yes, both are brain damaged (hardly the fault of Ben and his 70 assistants). My point remains valid although admittedly under researched. Ben led a team of surgeons on the first documented head to head conjoined twins separation where both lived. It wasn't the greatest outcome but an impressive feat none the less considering his use slowing the blood flow in order to minimize them bleeding to death during the operation. A smart move considering an almost impossible procedure. They couldn't reconstruct the skulls sadly.
Do you have a better idea?
Ben and his team tried their hardest, used the best methods and came up short. The parents' unhappiness matters in no way to the attempt and process used.
Ben later tried this on adult conjoined twins and both died. It's a very difficult and almost impossible surgery.
the chemistry exam story was the funniest part
right?
+dry bones fan 93 yoshi woooooooooooooooooooooooo
Yep. Because who cares if you have a great understanding of science as long as you pass the final.
Am I the only person who thinks that Carson is incredibly creepy?
Johnny Paulson nope, you're not.
Yes, like "tie you up in his basement and talk to you in that voice" creepy.
678 sherell EXACTLY
"There no school records"???? Why would you expect a school to keep disciplinary records for 50 years?
+mim brhan TYT news has evolved into a horses A$$. They constatly use bravado and ad hominems as PROOF of their position. Dirty Laundry Journalism.
+t88taco88 Is it really a bad idea to use an ad hominem attack when the point is to attack Carson. I mean, they are evaluating his authenticity. Please show me how to attack someone without attacking them Mr. Taco.
I think he is a legit psychopath.
& he's leading in some places right? Wtf.
look up facts for your self this video is all wrong
+yoloamigolol provide for us the article in the Daily News about him and that Yale experiment
+yoloamigolol I look it up and cenk is right
+yoloamigolol Everything this guy reports is either flat-out wrong, a blatant lie, or so twisted in his communist mentality, I wouldn't order a pizza from this Turkey!
+Karen Robart He's not communist though?
Ben is a bit of a scary psycho. Not necessarily violent but scary none the less
The fact that this lying narcissist has no feelings or empathy for those who have truly suffered and the fact that he is responsible for a department which would surely have to have empathy and consideration for some of the most needy in society is extremely frightening. Apart from his medical education, he has no intelligence or common sense at all.
Trump called him an idiot when they were debating and when asked about it, he said that's just politics.
So many lies... is he even black..i mean hell that could be a lie too
+James Franklin (MadSaintJames) .................Racist
STEPHANIE ELLIS Do you know what a joke is? Or is it a foreign concept to you?
Ben Carson: Memoirs or a Lying Surgeon
So he is a pathological liar . That is a necessary qualification if you aim to be President of the United States of America.
The only reason he's where he is is because this administration needs minorities who will publicly work against their community's best interests.
How many surgeries did he perform? Any survivors? Creepy, creepy liar.
No. His nerd story of childhood and college is exposing his narcissistic need to please one of his probably narcissistic parents. Was he the Golden Child? Children of narcissistic abuse take their 'imaginary' friend into adulthood. Their superhero.
He raises his eyebrows every time he lies.
Amit Walekar I peeped that as well
It makes him sound like a wannabe former thug!!!
Damn, Cuba Gooding should even be ashamed of his portrayal of Carson. That's how embarrassing Dr. Ben is to black people...
In his own way, Carson is even more entertaining than Trump
+Colonel Hart Media is Loving this right now!
"One of Carson’s disastrous operations involved a 9-year-old girl who was undergoing surgery to remove a brain tumor. Instead of only removing part of the tumor, as he was authorized to do by the girl’s parents, Carson allegedly removed the entire mass, which had been deemed too risky. After the surgery, the girl was left permanently paralyzed on her right side. The parents sued Carson and Johns Hopkins Hospital for medical malpractice in 2010.
Carson allegedly caused a man irreversible brain damage during a procedure to remove a malignant tumor. The man now suffers from deafness, slurred speech and dizziness. According to the man’s attorney, he appears drunk to strangers and cannot carry on a normal life.
Carson has been sued twice for leaving equipment and objects inside of patients. During the surgery of a young girl, Carson allegedly implanted a shunt upside down. In another case, Carson allegedly left a sponge in the brain of a 69-year-old woman, which caused her constant nerve pain."
carson's trump's kind of surgeon....a fake
@Fake President These mistakes happen more often than you'll ever know...this is not a surprise in the medical field...
The sad thing is: It is possible he has actually come to believe his own bullshit. There is a place in his mind into which he inputs facts and out comes whatever he wants to believe. All religious folks and nationalists have this, but Carson has obviously developed this ability to an extraordinary degree.
I thought he said even if he got an A he still wouldn't pass the course. Did his angel make his teacher lose his previous grades or forget how to calculate grades?
Sandra Molnar yeah, I noticed that too.
It is not a surprise that this Carson made lies about himself, what is really surprising is that he has followers who believe what he say.
Same ones who believe the mango Mussolini's whoopers 😂😂
To be fair, as a former Seventh-day Adventist, I can tell you from experience that Ben Carson is in no way representative of SDAs--especially the way he has acted during this campaign. Honestly, they are as delusional as all religious people, but not like Ben Carson.
Now we know why he is part of trump's team, cut from the same cloth. He is a brother from another mother.
wait wait wait? I thought he said he couldn't pass the class even if he got an A??? am I missing something
Jukelo o wow, thats a whopper
Whoever is careless with the truth in small matters cannot be trusted with important matters - Albert Einstein
Who lies about being violent. Most would hide that The violent acts, if they are true, did not happen in college. They happened when he was pre-teen or teen. Also, the title, "Gifted Hands" was probably chosen by the publisher. If you ever wrote a book, you would know that.
Iwant to see some proof this guy was even a doctor. I just don't buy it. I have seen none yet.
I wondered about this myself and came to similar conclusions, but this solidified my suspicions about Dr. Carson. Its a shame because the true narrative of his life is in itself very interesting and commendable, but this is what the GOP has come to. Kudos to TYT for calling it like it is.
Umm. He just said that even if he got an A he would fail the class. So what's the point of him getting an A in the test with divine intervention?
Entropyms 001 yes I wondered if anyone caught that too lol 😂
Wait... This guy got up at 4 AM and studied, every morning, & he still needed god's help to pass a chemistry test?
Ben Carson was sued for malpractice at least eight times. Look it up.
What doctor hasn't been sued for malpractice in America. He could be a great neurosurgeon but useless at anything else. There's lots of 'one trick ponies' but a lot more 'no trick ponies'. Becoming a surgeon takes single-minded, focused, dedication for at least 10 years, most people couln't cut it, let alone also be multi-talented.
I think when you become the Chief of Pediatric Neurosurgery for Johns Hopkins at age 33 you can go ahead and say you've got gifted hands.
I think this guy is gifted in some areas
Is his name even ben? he could be Carl from Alabama
I just refer to him as Sleepy Hollow.
Man watching democracy crumble is exhausting.
tick tock...tick....tock....
I would like this guy to look into Obama's past....
He's not a liar, he's delusional, which is even more dangerous.
Ben Carson is one weird dude.
Ben jammin ya think????? LOL
Politicians throughout history have embellished their lives to create a desired image.
embellished, but not made up an entire history
Ben Carson should use those "gifted hands" and pen some Hollywood scripts; put to use that wild imagination he apparently possesses.
ben carsen is more suitable for selling chocolate.
Poor, Poor Ben Carson, living in an alternative universe with his Jesus picture.
He seriously reminds me of someone who is just gonna snap one day... And either could be a serial killer or just shoots up a mall or something. Something just isn't right about him.... the way he talks. That softness. It's forced and that is very apparent to me.
Suppose they'll be moving his autobiography to the Fiction section in libraries and bookstores?
If there is any example of an 'Uncle Tom,' it's Ben Carson...
Another bottom feeder since Trump drain the swamp they're everywhere
“Black Klingon Jesus” I haven’t laughed this hard in a while 😂
The even crazier thing is I think carson really believes these things.
He does .
What is it with these People? Even Republicans can't stand them. What can be done to get rid of them?. Why isn't someone doing Something? Impeach everyone.
Theresa Carmen 100% LOL
TYT - THIS IS GREAT. EXPOSURE OF THE NARCISSISTIC PERSONALITY DISORDER. SO COOL.
Trump is a genius in one thing: Picking other liers like himself.
An angel taught Ben Carson chemistry, the pyramids was for storing grain, a belt bucket saved him from being a murderer etc etc..and you tell me that this guy is the one who should be responsible for 5000 nukes...nah, don't think so.
He said he still would've failed the class even if he aced his Chem final... so even if angels came and told him all the answers how could he have passed that class to become a doctor? even some of his individual stories have inconsistencies
How the hell did this guy get through med school!?!
Leucotomy
Tell me who your friends are and I'll tell you who you are!!! look what he's doing now and his BOSS!!!!
Has Dr Ben Carson been taking lessons in tall tales and talking absolute bullshit by Hulk Hogan!?
+Gertrude Perkins I doubt Hogan would teach him... given what he got ousted for.
Abstruse Decapod True! Although Hogan is a master of bullshit and tall tales!
+Gertrude Perkins He actually sounds a lot like certain evangelical preachers or creationists. There seems to be this trend where they take other peoples anecdotes and cast themselves as the protagonist or even make up stories out of whole-cloth without a hint of irony. Read any book by Josh McDowell's, Ray Comfort, Rice Broocks, etc., and you'll find these smug little stories about them challenging and outsmarting liberal, atheist professors from undisclosed universities for instance.
One man's plagiarism is another man's parable I guess...
The answer is yes
+TheMusesOrg Look at the way that all Republican politicians frame their stories when they delve into anecdotes. McMorris-Rogers and "Betty from Spokane" whose health premiums had gone up 7000% because of ObamaCare, Paul Ryan and the kid who came up to him and said that he didn't want a school lunch because bringing his own lunch gave him dignity, Scott Walker and the people at the Reagan library who let only him touch the Reagan bible because of his policies as Wisconsin governor. They're all total lies. They just know that the Republican base is criminally stupid and will believe ANYTHING if it bashes Liberalism or praises Conservatism.
carson just said if he got an A he would off still failed
+baronhoban Well as a someone who took college Organic Chemistry a long time ago, I remember they graded on a curve and on one test I made an A with a 49 test score- so I suppose you could have an A on a particular test but still not have enough total points to pass but if you killed the curve with a 97 you might have an overall B+ , it all depends on the grading scheme and I saw some pretty bizarre ones college. On the other hand it could all be bullshit, anyways IMO Ben Carson has a very fluid relation with the truth- I think it is a lesson he has learned from religion, and before now his target audience were those who learned to turn off critical thinking and just let beautiful empowering stories flow over them like water over stones. Now he's engaged a different audience and seems outraged that bullshit detectors are going off all over the country.
One day, Ben may meet Jesus, who will say, "Hey! Why did you drag me into your crappy stories?"
LOL.
Getting 97 percent on the exam could have been part of the dream. Some people have difficulty distinguishing reality, and dreams can be impressively vivid.
This is exactly what I was saying to somebody the other day. Carson lies about things that it simply isn't necessary to lie about. He lies about things that aren't really important in the scheme of things. He lies gratuitously.Which exactly describes a pathological liar.

Hillary isn't crazy and isn't a delusional fantasist who's so out of touch with reality she thinks pyramids were used to store grain and affordable health care is the worst thing to happen to America since slavery.
All politicians lie. Some more than others.
But the really dangerous ones are the ones that believe their own lies. Like Carson.
Nice bit of projection there.
The only thing more incredible than watching thr "post-truth" idiocy of the Republican candidates is the sheer craziness of their follower.
Its just mental illnes. Very disturbing.

The reality is that the GOP has become a cult, catering to nutcases like you.
+GeorgeJr Washington You don't seem to have critical thinking when you call Hillary Clinton a child molester.
She lies and flip flops because everything she does is calculated and planned out for political and financial gain that is very bad but that's very different from Carson he just makes up random stuff that nobody even cares about he is incapable of being a president let alone holding any political office.
If you're a Republican at least vote for someone that is sane like Rand Paul that actually knows something about politics and doesn't live in a magical world.

If its been proven, why haven't both Hillary and her husband been arrested and charged?
Oh, I'm sure you'll think of some conspiracy to explain it away. Nutcase.
Some craziness
There is definitely something wrong with the guy - he seems like he is in a haze when he speaks like he's high but I guess he has some mental impairment.
With his 97% chemistry mark, he is right up there with Kim Jong Un! He shot a hole in one in his first ever golf game 😂
