(8,200 posts)What it appeared to me was that he was able to bamboozle less discerning people and thought that he could do the same with everyone. He would change the story as suited him, thinking that no one would recall his previous account. He was very much in need of acceptance and admiration and concocted these tales to impress others of his superiority. He was academically outstanding, yet strived for greater acceptance and admiration. Carson reminds me of this person in nearly every way.
Carson claims to have been in direct connection to God who is providing him with divine guidance. He is clearly delusional. For any sane person it would seem to me that this claim would be enough to disqualify him to lead our nation. I wouldn't want him any where near the switch that could bring about a nuclear holocaust. His throng of supporters only demonstrates that our educational system has failed to take precedence over mythological nonsense with a substantial share of our fellow citizens who are willing to swallow his delusions without question.
