So I thought I would do a little research. I am so sick and tired of celebrities pushing their liberal agenda on us, and using every opportunity to tell us how to vote. So I thought, what exactly qualifies these people to give us political advice? Well, it definitely isn't what they do for a living, so I figure maybe it was their education. So thanks to IMDB.com and Wikipedia, I found the following:

Actor George Clooney briefly attended NKU but did not graduate

Brad Pitt attended the University of Missouri, where he majored in journalism with a focus on advertising. He left college two credits short of graduating to move to California.

Sean Penn briefly attended Santa Monica College, but did not graduate

Susan Surandan Attended Catholic University of America Drama School, 1964-1968.

Ben Affleck Dropped out of the University of Vermont after 1 semester. He also dropped out of Occidental College after 1 year, where he had studied Middle Eastern studies.

Matt Dammon dropped out of Harvard 12 credits short of graduating to pursue his acting career.

Martin Sheen Purposely flunked his college entrance exam to the University of Dayton so that he could pursue an acting career instead.

Rosie Odonell dropped out of Boston University after 1 year. Also dropped out of Dickinson College, in Carlisle,PA.

Rosanne Barr dropped out of high school when she was 17 years old. After a car accident, she was admitted to a mental institution, claiming she was having nightmares and memory loss.

Kanye West attended Chicago State University/Columbia College, in Chicago. He dropped out to pursue music, hence the name of his 2004 debut album "The College Droput".

Barbara Streisand graduated from Erasmus Hall High School in Brooklyn. She did not go to college.

Tina Fey studied drama at the University of Virginia.

Michael Moore attended the University of Michigan-Flint in the 1970s. He studied journalism.

Now this isn't to say you need a college degree to have a political opinion. But you would think that people that esteem themselves as such experts, with such public and widely brodcasted opinions would at least have some knowledge or expertise on the subject. Anyway, I thought this was pretty interesting. I also thought it might be interesting to see about the education of some conservative actors, here is what I found:
