What about Chelsea Clinton?
She's gotten a pile of degrees from major univs, however to when one hears her speak, she does not come across as at all scholarly or "bookish" or at all a person of letters.
One would wager that if some TAs who graded some of Chelsea's essays were to come forward, some heavy influence in her favor might be exposed to daylight.
One doubts seriously that she earned her way into these institutions, and even more so that she earned the degrees conferred upon her.

I’m sure she got in and received her degrees under the Clinton “or else” plan. I have no doubt.
