BTW, Mike, the mainstream media would be *thrilled* to be able to document a genuine Clinton scandal with actual facts. If they haven't done so this time around, it's because the facts just ain't there. BTW 2, the mainstream media isn't all that "librul." They're centrist. And the Republican

Yes, I found the Shapiro article earlier. Thing is, in all Carson's retellings of the West Point story, he *implies* that he applied, was accepted, and was granted a full scholarship, but decided not to go. What he said was distinctly misleading, and it appears Politico was misled. CNN talked

ROTC was not in a position to "offer to send him to West Point," nor to "offer" him a "scholarship." There are no "scholarships" to West Point anyway; once you've been accepted, it's free. ROTC was only in a position to recommend him if he wanted to go, which he didn't. There's a big difference
