Major Dirt Surfaces About Ben Carsons Past Hes In Deep Trouble Politico just posted an article stating that Ben Carson completely fabricated his story of getting a scholarship from West Point. Carsons story hasnt been adding up, and the media is having a feast over it. Liberals are going crazy over this, yet they refuse to acknowledge that Obama and Hillary have been lying for years. Politico states that Ben Carsons campaign on Friday admitted, in a response to an inquiry from POLITICO, that a central point in his inspirational personal story was fabricated. The weird thing is, Ben Carsons campaign never admitted that. How can Politico be taken seriously if the facts in the article dont even add up? Do you think Politico is trying to create a story out of thin air?
