Ben Carson admits fabricating West Point scholarship


Quote:He was told by Westmoreland that he would get him in because he was brilliant, a highly regarded ROTC leader, an probably a little because of his race. Yes, that is the equivilant to a full scholarship offer to West Point.
 

No, it's more like someone telling me that if I tried out for the Gator football team, I would probably make it, and then me writing in my autobiography that I was offered a full athletic scholarship to UF.   It straddles the line between puffing up the facts and pure lying.
