never to trust anyone who thinks that he exclusively has God on his side, especially when he's the President of the United States."
(here's what he thought, but didn't say) Because I'm the only one that has God on his side. I'm a STAR. Lo and Behold, bow before GERE!
Maitre D at a nice upscale restaurant before he became a pretender,...ahhh...., actor?
Or unlike the long, long, very long list of other prior waiters/waitresses and unskilled laborers turned pretenders, does he have some form of education that is at least somewhat indicative that he understands economics, political science, world history, current events, etc., etc., etc.?
Here it is, ...decided to find out myself:
Education: University of Massachusetts Amherst (two years)
So he did a couple of years of underclass work at one of the finest liberal institutions in the nation for cheap, naturally, and then apparently dropped out to go "pretend."

What a fulfilling existence! If people didn't go see his films where he plays "make believe", his entire existence would be a footnote!
Education: University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Massachusetts; studied philosophy and drama; attended on gymnastics scholarship; left after two years
Gymnastics! Impressive! I think we should line him up with Condi Rice in a debate! Clearly the lad has earned it! :rolleyes:

Could have been that philosophy and drama, ....excuse me...."pretending" background that he had. Almost forgot my manners there! :D
What a dope Gere is!
It's still funny though.
Thought that Gere's choices for influence were a little at odds with his 'other life'; his shadow presence with the Dalai Lama.
Guess he never reconciled the dualties of being a genuine hypocrit.
