Lol. Jindal managed to somehow wreck Louisiana even more than Fiorina mauled HP.

My opinion: I don't know about his tax plan. My take is, if you don't have a good plan don't release a plan.

"Trump's plan eliminates any federal income tax on individuals who earn less than $25,000 a year or on a married couple earning less than $50,000 per year, a potential tax break for 31 million households, according to the plan."

"Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump's tax plan would cost an eye-popping $12 trillion over 10 years, according a new estimate that runs directly counter to the billionaire's pledge not to increase the deficit with the proposal."

I'd say Carson is definitely gaining interest all across the US as CNN is truly devoting a lot of their resources to making a big deal out of something insignificant. Who cares if Carson didn't receive the West Point appointment. We all know with his achievements at 17 that it would have happened. Instead he had to settle for Yale.
Can't wait to hear Hillary call him out over this.
The interesting demotion of Huckabee and Christie in next week's debate may look different, but it will give both of them much needed air time. While they won't have much of a live audience they will definitely have their comments recycled by the media. That can only happen when given time to talk. I don't think I'd benefit, but the Fair Tax would simplify so many lives too and Huckabee will definitely talk about it.

Here's my understanding...
He would have been accepted had he applied. He was probably informally accepted if he met the requirements to get accepted. I was pre-accepted to 3 colleges I didn't apply to... Does that count?
Then again, Carson could be lying. I think it depends on whether he was being intentionally dishonest or not...
Per the scholarship argument.
West point is Free. When you group it with other colleges, it's like getting a scholarship. So any article that says he's dishonest about a scholarship because none exists is semantic trolling. I would question the credibility and bias of any article that brings this up.

Carson's issue is that he has based his campaign entirely upon his bio..he has no political or leadership experience to speak of. So, he uses his narrative and biography as selling points. I see him as a total lightweight who has tapped into a minority sentiment. If he or Trump gets nominated, it will be a cakewalk for HRC in the general election.
"Fair" Tax would simplify a lot of things but it would be an economic disaster...just look at Kansas. Trickle down economic has never worked IMO but it certainly won't work now in an age of globalization.

That's the last thing Trump will make America. He's going to run it to the ground and become outraged when he can't declare BK.
