Fact is many young voters want an well-educated person for president.

I disagree.

Reagan was not "well educated", as the term is used in politics. (Harvard/Yale, law degree, etc.) It's a well-worn Liberal talking point that a candidate must be "well educated" in the formal sense of the word.

And Obama is not really well educated, but well indoctrinated. He's an affirmative action sock puppet. He had a speech writer who was able to create stirring prose, but the man himself is average at best.

I would bet on Sarah Palin in a fair test of intellect and real education (minus the speech writers and handlers) against Mr. Obama any day of the week.

but reagan had a very well developed world view. He was a philosopher.

On the other hand if we were doing reagan again, he wouldn’t win because he would be too old for this generation.

Let me clarify: today's young prefer someone more educated.
