Republican presidential contender Ben Carson “will have to explain a lot of things away” given questions about whether parts of his life story have been exaggerated or fabricated, rival White House hopeful Donald Trump said Sunday.
Carson, a retired neurosurgeon leading some polls for the 2016 Republican nomination, has been under scrutiny after media outlets including CNN and the Wall Street Journal were unable to verify anecdotes in his widely read autobiography, “Gifted Hands,” including that he was offered a scholarship to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point.
