Now Strong Enough for a december rate hike . A lot of things happening today, but first of all, a very Big Development in the president ial race. Eamon javers joins us in d. C. With more details. Eamon . Mandy, thats right. A blockbuster report here in politico. Com this morning. Politico reporting that ben carsons campaign is admitting that a central piece of his biography was not, in fact, correct as reported by him in his own books. Theyre saying ultimately ben carson was not ever an applicant to west point. In his books ben carson wrote he applied to west point and was offered a full scholarship after meeting with general william westmoreland. Politico reporting that the Carson Campaign is now saying that, no, in fact, he was never offered a full scholarship to west point. In fact, west point is tuitionfree for those offered admission. Theres no such thing as a full scholarship in any case to west point. This follows on a number of controversies for ben carson and his campaign whic
Are there people elsewhere who will come to the zone could you do have to ask yourself for whom would you be attracted to be in such a zone . And secondly who probably some of the folks in germany who wouldve rather stayed in their own country. If they wish to return to the part of the country for which, in which the zone is created. But again it would depend on where it was and would be contested let me ask you, barrel bombs, weve talked about this time after time. Why are we unwilling to send a message to assad that if he continues with mail bombing we will stop them and crater his runways . We have not undertaken to engage as they use military the syrian military. We have not taken a step. How do you ever stop the federal bombing . Beryl bombing. Just to go back to what weve been saying repeal it is for assad to depart and for the to be a political speech i would be depart at this point . Because the opposition to him is intense and strengthening. As far as i can see you said three
She actually shut down a press conference. Ben carson, some of these claims may prove to be true, but at least he is out there addressing these concerns, which he can honestly say we have not seen from Hillary Clinton. Camp Hillary Clintons said that the 11 hour grilli that happened before the House Committee do they say that has been enough to address some of these concerns . Guest that is certainly the way they would spin it. You also need to speak to members of the press. Hillary clinton has been one of the least willing candidates to. O so she has done a couple interviews over the summer, but most of them have been softball interviews.

Im really, really upset. I feel that there are candidates , when barack obama was coming up, i never saw them delve into his childhood friends, his mentor, who was a communist. This man is such a reputable, audible man. I cannot believe this is going on. Disagree with the last caller i feel that, given the chance to state his policies, not his childhood friends, on whether he did or did not do something, i feel that is totally wrong. Host do you want to jump in . Guest i will just briefly say, that is the leading criticism that we have heard from ben carsons campaign. That it is unfair to be asking him about childhood friends from 4050 years back that he claims to have trouble remembering. I will say that we did hear a , butbout Jeremiah Wright ben carson has raised these concerns, delivering the same messag

We turn to you this morning to tell us what its like in your community. If you live in the Eastern Central part of the country mountain pacific you can also join the conversation on twitter. Facebook. Com cspan. What is the condition of infrastructure in your community . Take a look at the debate on the house floor yesterday. The top democrat in the House Transportation Committee talks about how there is not Adequate Funding in this secure bill. The biggest and most glaring omission by the rules committee is any attempt of not allowing any attempt by this house to fund the bill. Thats pretty extraordinary. We probably dont have three years of pretend funding in the bill because of the offsets in the budget deal. I dont know what is lef
