Ben Carson: the most misunderstood candidate?
“Businessman Donald Trump and neurosurgeon Ben Carson lead on the outsider track, and Sens”.
“A set-up clip from NBC’s Katy Tur exclaims, “[Donald Trump] said that although he doesn’t remember where he saw that video, he does know he saw it, because he has quote “the world’s greatest memory”.
