I have read that Wikipedia post too. Do not believe it. It is wrong. It is propaganda to make he appear more intelligent than she actually is. According to Boston University she has a BA in International Relations. This is a degree along the line of basket weaving, woman's studies, etc. These are degrees given to people who were not smart enough to pass higher math, science, or language classes. Do a little research on the internet and you will come across articles like the following: "She took 12 credit hours in economics, in classes like "Economics of Less-Developed Regions," as part of her international relations degree. "I have a degree in economics" is another example of AOC's pattern of compulsive lying. https://t.co/MKDGqnwYz1 — Donny Ferguson 🗽 (@DonnyFerguson) April 1, 2019 Well, that bears a little snooping. So I hopped over to Boston University’s website. A BA in Economics at BU requires 32 credit hours in the core curriculum which is standard for most majors. There is no offering in the department for a dual degree in Economics and International Relations. The only one offered is in Economics and Math. There is an option for a minor in Economics with seven additional classes. Keep in mind that Wikipedia is a VERY LIBERAL information organization. Do not believe everything you read.

I actually wrote to BU and told them that, if AOC did get a degree in economics, they should ask for their degree back. I have a Ph.D. in economics and taught university econ for years and would have flunked any student who made economic statements as dumb as she has.

Imagine: BU never wrote back.
