Former Republican hopeful Ben Carson has confirmed his support for his
former rival and front-runner Donald Trump in the US
The winner of the Republican nomination will face Hillary Clinton or
Bernie Sanders for the Democrats, in November.
Mr Carson is the second former candidate to endorse Mr Trump after New
Jersey Governor Chris Christie.
A retired neurosurgeon, Mr Carson was an early favourite but dropped out
last week after failing to gain significant popular support.
"I have found in talking with him, that there's a lot more
alignment, philosophically and spiritually, than I ever thought that there
was," Mr Carson said of his former rival.
"Donald Trump talks a lot about making America
Asked about insults that the two candidates had thrown at each other in
the early stages of the campaign, Mr Carson said they had "buried the
hatchet".
"That was political stuff," he said. "That happens in
American politics."
