Did being a Rhodes scholar ever give a candidate a leg up in an American election?

'But he was a Rhodes Scholar!'
"Good point. He can count on my vote!"

Fat Billyboy Clinton was a "Rhodes Scholar" too, an appointment which means nothing to anyone outside the east coast bell jar. It is an appointment based on connections, not scholarship, and should carry zero weight in any election, especially in the Real America.
