Scott Walker has come from out of nowhere (if you weren’t paying attention), survived three elections in four years as a Republican in a blue state, and is making waves with statements and policies that drive the Left insane. However, there is one thing that makes Walker different from other potential presidential candidates – he never finished college. And, the college life of a presidential candidate didn’t seem to concern the media in 2008 when no one decided to vet Obama’s collegiate career or figure out what the hell he might have done (aside from drugs!) in college. In 2016, it suddenly matters.

It’s funny. Barack Obama had absolutely no accomplishments prior to running for office, and we were told nothing of his educated life by a media whose job is supposed to be informing the public. Scott Walker, meanwhile, dropped out of college, gave a reason as to why, and it warrants a full investigation by the very same media that protected Obama’s past. The media, once again is showing a distinct bias, and will make no change no matter who calls it out or how loudly it is called out.

I fully understand and even approve of the need to vet candidates who are running for the highest office in the land, or any office for that matter. The public needs to know the character of the person who will represent their will. But, the media chose not to do that for Barack Obama, and they are maliciously slinging mud against a man who hasn’t officially announced it yet. The bias is plain as day and, sadly, it’s unsurprising.

The media’s favorite Starbucks coffee flavor: Obies@ss.
You have to present press credentials to get it.
I think this is a great idea!
Let’s compare them all to Obama’s
(Oh wait......)
He just needs to seal his records, just like Obama. Then challenge the president. Unseal yours and I will unseal mine.
This is a problem for Walker only if he pursues his plan to dumb down the Wisconsin university system.
.
Don’t forget Harry Truman, the last Democrat President to possess any modicum of common sense.
Funny, ain’t it?
As a homeschooling mom, I embrace a NO-college degree candidate. The ‘well-educated’ spew smelly non-thinking.
Uh, Bowbama's college years/transcripts? They'll have a ball with Hitlery!
Conspicuously missing on your list: Rush Limbaugh
> Remember, most liberal “intellectuals” are simply educated beyond their intelligence.
Educated might be a misnomer. There’s a reason for the term, “educated idiots”. They can teach you all about the hidden culture of transgenderism down through the ages but they can’t change a tire...
The anti-war movement will come back from hiatus as well.
I think this is entirely fair. After all, we all know Obama went to college so it only stands to reason anyone else needs to have gone also. In addition, Sen Cruz needs to release his transcripts from Harvard to prove he got all “A”s (it doesn’t matter that he never claimed he did). If he got one A minus, he’s obviously not qualified to be President either.
Obama doesn’t need to do any of this because he’s black. That’s what qualifies him.
Again, all of this is perfectly fair and if you disagree you’re a racist.
“Frank Lloyd Wright”
He certainly didn’t have an engineering degree.
> and Nobama’s college years?
You mean the college coirses that he yook to meet the requirements of becoming a lawyer so he could be maneuvered ino position to run for president all according the The Plan. The college education that Communist, Tom Ayers (Bill’s father), and the rich prince of Saudi Arabia paid for with no strings attached? Yeah folks we were suckered by one of the biggest con games to ever hit the planet. One that took 4 decades to achieve. And here we are and a huge percentage don’t even realize WTH is going on...
I have noticed that they dont exist now. We have the worst economy since Carter and lie about it. Record amount of people out of jobs and collecting food stamps and other welfare. One can clearly see the number of homeless increase right here in DC. Yet not a peep out of the media.
I mean as far as the media is concerned.
You could be an Eagle Scout Son of a Preacher turned Successful Governor, but if the media decides to portray you as a toothless woman hating neanderthal...well guess what people will think of you.
On the other hand, you could be a subversive, racist, pathologically lying narcissistic America Hating Mulatto, but the media decides you are the 2nd coming of JC...Guess what the low info crowd believe.
The Brian Williams thing brought this into focus. Lying agenda driven media still own the future.
For the record: I like both Walker and Cruz. I think Cruz is crazy smart and would be fun to watch in a debate against Hillary! I think Walker has experience running a state.
I'm so tired of FReepers that feel the need to bash one or the other of these candidates. These are both good men and would do us proud!
