Ben Carson denies having any significant involvement with Manatech despite evidence of paid speeches and website promotion.

There's a company called Manatech, a maker of nutritional supplements with which you had a 10-year relationship. They offered claims that they could cure autism, cancer. They paid $7 million to settle a deceptive marketing lawsuit in Texas, and yet your involvement continued. Why? Well, that's easy to answer. I didn't have an involvement with them. That is total propaganda. And this is what happens in our society. Total propaganda. I did a couple of speeches for them. I did speeches for other people. They were pretty much. So yes, I did have involvement. It is absolutely absurd to say that I had any kind of a relationship with them. Do I take the product? Yes. I think it's a good product. You're advertising the homepage of their website with the logo over your shoulder. If somebody put me on their homepage, they did it without. How dare you be involved in something? Doesn't that speak to your vetting process or judgment in any way? No, it speaks to the fact that I don't know those stories.
