I read his story to my sons and it left an impression on them. They sometimes say when discouraged with school, "Well, if Ben Carson could do it, so can I."
I don't have many heroes, but he's on the list.
It sounds like he isn't rejecting the idea of politics outright. Will be interesting to see where he goes after retirement as a surgeon.
