Carson's comments read like a seventeen year old not really understanding the conversation he had with someone very important who knew nothing about a teenage kid he just met and fifty years later believing that conversation was somehow notable or relevant to his life. The conversation with General Westmoreland sounds like the conversation Dustin Hoffman had in The Graduate. The guy simply suggested plastics (West Point) was a good move, not roll out the welcome mat. I know one has to have an enormous ego to run for president, but Carson's seems bigger than most.
