I’m trying to use bootstrap carousel with using only text. I need to get the text to be aligned in the middle. However, the text tend to be on left instead aligned in the middle as it should be. I’m trying to get this fix.

.carousel{
   display:table;
   width:100%;
}
.carousel-content {
    color:black;
    position:flex;
	width:inherit;
	text-align:center;  
    height:200px;
    display:table-cell;
    vertical-align:middle;
}

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="carousel-example" class="carousel slide" data-ride="carousel">
    <!-- Wrapper for slides -->
    <div class="row">
        <div class="col-xs-offset-3 col-xs-6">
            <div class="carousel-inner">
                <div class="item active">
                    <div class="carousel-content">
                        <div>
                            <h3>#1</h3>
                            <p>This is a twitter bootstrap carousel that only uses text. There are no images in the carousel slides.</p>
                        </div>
                    </div>
                </div>
                <div class="item">
                    <div class="carousel-content">
                        <div>
                            <h3>#2</h3>
                            <p>This is another much longer item. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit.
