Bush was a “C” student at Yale. He received his MBA from Harvard.
You’re corrwect- it was awhile GO I had read that and forgot- thanks for the correction- I remember the BUIG deal that the MSM was makign over the fact that he ‘only’ got ‘C’s’, and I thought- Hmmm- Not bad for beign a party boy and STILL gettign a C in a very hard college-
Kerry's grades were about the same as Bush's (he's older so wasn't in the same class year at Yale) but the media never used that against Kerry.
Gore, at Harvard, had some A's as I recall, but also had some D's...overall record not much different from Bush's.
None of them were upwardly-mobile first-generation college students from middle-class or poor families...so their attitude towards grades may have reflected their social background.
