I would think that further proof that he is clearly suffering from dementia would be quite enough for it to matter. But, I am sure that some of his supporters will disagree with your diagnoses. Assuming Carson is not suffering from any cognitive disorders, this sheds light on his supposed intellect and his ability to process information.

Given your brilliance, why haven't you accomplished even one tenth of what Ben Carson has done? Instead you sit around blogging stupid shit all day to bash anyone that doesn't think or believe exactly as you do. [/quote]

Are you defending Carson's theories about the pyramids? Do you also believe they were used to store grain? This is not about me, but if I were running for President, I would certainly not expect to get a pass for all the stupid things that I've said. Do you believe that anything stupid that Carson says should be ignored?

Not defending or refuting. I really do t care what Carson, you or anyone thinks of the ancient Egyptians. I'm simply amused that someone e who has accomplished little in comparison would be so zealous to discredit his intellect.[/quote]

Carson just rode the coattails of a lot of eminent surgeons at JH who, unlike him, weren't crazy egomaniacs who thought of themselves as God's gift to humanity and were happy to let him have the spotlight. He is a case of affirmative action gone very wrong.[/quote]
Please share specifically whose coattails he rode. I worked at Hopkins in the PICU and cared for many of his patients over several years and I would be fascinated to hear you back this up.[/quote]

Here you go.

Note specifically hemispherectomies, that Freeman revived, but that Carson says Freeman "helped work out."

And now CNN has come out with a report suggesting that Carson is a compulsive liar who fabricated his story of redemption from a violent youth. The National Review has called him a "bald-faced liar" for his statements regarding his association with Mannatech. He plagiarized portions of a book in which he even admits to college plagiarism. Perhaps it's time to ask what he's truthful about?
