The reason I say intellectual property was a dead end, do no harm role is because the US Patent & Trademark Office requires that persons coming before it must have passed the Patent Bar exam and the only way to take the Patent Bar is to have an approved technical degree. Neither Michelle nor Barack had anything close to a technical degree.

You are an idiot. Most IP work is trademark, copyright, or transactional. You don't need a technical degree for any of that. You don't even need a technical degree for patent litigation, I've done it myself and I'm an econ guy. You only need a technical degree if you want to do patent prosecution (i.e. register and defend new patents). Very few people in intellectual property groups do that.

Michelle Obama had a prestigious well-paying job at Sidley. There is no story here.
