Is the mainstream media going after Ben Carson unlike any other Democratic opponent? I think we all honestly know the answer to this question. Yet when someone opens themselves up as a candidate of true character the media will scrutinize their record with a toothbrush. Ben Carson has every right to challenge the media loudly/ publicly on their double standard and why they are making a minor story in his life a major headline but he also must consider the bio he presents as well. This shouldn’t be enough to stop his rise to the top but at the same time it shouldn’t be the reason he continues such a rise. Ben Carson is a wonderful talented man who’s experiences lead him to the race to the White House. Yet along that path his life record and political solutions will be more scrutinized then many others because he is a novice in the political sphere and how he deals with it will decide if he continues along that path or gets off and enjoys the view instead.
