Scott Walker has come from out of nowhere (if you weren’t paying attention), survived three elections in four years as a Republican in a blue state, and is making waves with statements and policies that drive the Left insane. However, there is one thing that makes Walker different from other potential presidential candidates – he never finished college. And, the college life of a presidential candidate didn’t seem to concern the media in 2008 when no one decided to vet Obama’s collegiate career or figure out what the hell he might have done (aside from drugs!) in college. In 2016, it suddenly matters.

It’s funny. Barack Obama had absolutely no accomplishments prior to running for office, and we were told nothing of his educated life by a media whose job is supposed to be informing the public. Scott Walker, meanwhile, dropped out of college, gave a reason as to why, and it warrants a full investigation by the very same media that protected Obama’s past. The media, once again is showing a distinct bias, and will make no change no matter who calls it out or how loudly it is called out.

I fully understand and even approve of the need to vet candidates who are running for the highest office in the land, or any office for that matter. The public needs to know the character of the person who will represent their will. But, the media chose not to do that for Barack Obama, and they are maliciously slinging mud against a man who hasn’t officially announced it yet. The bias is plain as day and, sadly, it’s unsurprising.

You see FRiend, this is why we need to keep electing Democrats for office. Because it can’t be a coincidence that anytime a Democrat is elected anywhere, the homeless problem disappears from the media. And if it disappears from the media, that means it CAN’T exist. Because the media would cover the problem regardless. It’s not like they are biased or anything.
They are the Liberal Democrat Propaganda Machine.
Agree 10,000%. Lots of poor, unemployment and malaise, meanwhile tons of media lying and disingenous confetti-throwing about The Jobs Miracle.
Ridiculous.
Well, we weren't suckered......the obamaniacs and fainters were suckered. We knew exactly who and what he was. We just couldn't stop it.
Wasn’t Wright an architect? How could he design buildings without a ticket?
At the moment, we are living in a fool's paradise, but that will not last.
I don’t recall reading anything in the Constitution about a college degree being required for qualification to be POTUS. I’ll have to go back and look again.
I don’t think that Arthur Jones, the multimillionaire inventor of Nautilus exercise equipment, finished college.
Lying agenda driven media still own the future.
And they will continue to do so right up until the point that Corruption they are lying to hide EXPLODES and is thus undeniable.
We are not far from that point. In fact, IMHO we are at it.
Neither did Bill Gates...and many others.
Exactly, if they ask the question, then the media opens itself up to criticism in that very area. Turn it right back at them.
My dad, Donald E. Kovacs.
Oh good. Let’s start by first looking at 0bama’s status as a foreign student.
Mike Schaffer in LA City Council race boasts on a campaign sign that he’s “Best Educated”.
To my mind, that’s reason enough not to vote for this elitist right there.
Thank you for the sarcasm this morning; gave me a chuckle and a smile.
Oh, wait a minute. The media are already after Cruz chasing that red herring. Never mind.
They should stick with the lack of college education and then go dig up some old girlfriends said he jilted them, maybe also see if they can find some dirt on his mother...
Haha you’re welcome. I prefer to laugh instead of cry (or shout obscenities at my computer haha)
