As Matt Dallek, a professor of political science at George Washington Universitys graduate school, explained to the Washington Post, Voters want some sense that our leaders are particularly gifted, smart, accomplished, extraordinary but at the same time ordinary.
As it plays out, the debate over Walkers education could answer the question: do voters really want a candidate from the same educational mold as most of the country? Or will the scrappy governor from Wisconsin be penalized for being too ordinary?"
Liberal elitism at its best!
It's past time to take some of these dems, especially ones like Howard Dean, to the same gym where Harry Reid "exercises" and treat them to an extended "workout"!
It doesn’t matter anymore. So long as you are productive and maintain your existance to an aduquate degree, specialized training can always be picked up later as needed, as wanted.
At least we have Scott Walker’s college records.
Which is far more than we can say for the cluster foxtrot who currently occupies 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
The Democrats claim Bill Gates III, Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg as their own. Yet, all three are college dropouts that created companies that have changed the world.
And yet watch how the low information voters without degrees go right along with them.
Obama didn’t finish childhood.
Say it with me, loudly:
NO LAWYERS
NO IVY LEAGUERS
Those voters want gravy.
They could care less if the candidate is a 3rd world native with a Muslim name...or a high school dropout...LOL
Add to the list: Community Agitators.
I see that as a big PLUS! A free thinker, not indoctrinated with communistic/socialistic/progressive BS.
After high school (Brian) Williams attended Brookdale Community College, after which he transferred to The Catholic University of America, and then The George Washington University.[12] He did not graduate, and instead interned with the administration of President Jimmy Carter. He now calls leaving college one of his “great regrets”.[13] Williams completed a total of 18 college credits.[14]

When I started college I chose a couple in California. One was Santa Cruz. They literally sit you in a room and bash you as a white male. You are the most evil privileged scum on the planet and their goal is to make you feel guilty and destroy your self esteem. I didn’t fall for that nonsense. Luckily I didn’t go straight in to college after high school. I ended up at Fresno State (industrial technology). From which I dropped out when I ran out of money. There wasn’t much of that PC feminist bull crap. AND I had the pleasure of studying courses by Victor Davis Hansen. Anyway, I dropped out and now have my own manufacturing shop.
The country is awash in debt, misery, racism, sexism, and run by the ‘smartest’ most educated dunces in all of history.
The non-STEM college value-proposition has declined over the past few decades.
It needs to be completely restructured by free-market forces, with a complete absence of government funding, regulation or other involvement.
That is the only way to restore its value.
There is not, and has not been for a long time, a question of the existence of overwhelming liberal bias at institutions of higher education. The inquiries into the phenomenon focus on why that structural bias exists and persists. Whatever the reasons, its easy to understand why the liberal establishment wants to protect the biased architecture of American education......"
This attack might not play well with the union rank and file....MANY of whom don’t have college degrees
Someone needs to pressure Dean - on tape - so that the whole country can experience Liberal elitism.
Anyone who opposes the candidacy of Scott Walker as "anti working man." How many members of a union when to college. Can you imagine a reporter sticking a microphone in the face of a union worker and say "Howard Dean doesn't think your kind belong in a halls of power. Get back to the ditches!"
Wisdom is most important and I know plenty of wise people that never went to college. Some, didn’t graduate high school.
