What Ben Carson’s Mannatech Answer Tells Us | National Review Online
Both Williams and Carson insist there was “no compensated relationship” because the money for Carson’s speeches and appearances went through a Speaker’s Bureau. This is sophistry. The Speaker’s Bureau just transfers the money from the group to the speaker; Carson spoke to the group four times and talked about the company’s “glyconutrient” products in a PBS special as recently as last year. The company stated, “a group of Mannatech independent distributors, not Mannatech Incorporated, sponsored Dr. Carson to be the sole speaker on a PBS special.” Williams (and presumably Carson) contend that Carson never endorsed Mannatech’s products, even though he appeared in company videos saying things like, “The wonderful thing about a company like Mannatech is that they recognize that when God made us, He gave us the right fuel.” That’s a semantic argument about what constitutes an endorsement.
