The chart indicates a difference between “finished college’ and bachelor’s degree. Those who went to military academies show ‘finished college,’ but not bachelor’s degree.

Given some recent Ivy League grads who’ve sat in that Oval Office, I’m more than willing to give a non-grad a shot.

There’s a difference between “affirmative action” and “legacy” Ivy League graduates and individuals that actually earned their way into such a school. Do I have to spell out who I’m talking about or do you get it?

John Adams graduated from Harvard College and James Madison from Princeton, so they could be called Ivy League grads. James Monroe attended the College of William and Mary but was a college dropout--because he left to fight in the American Revolution. William and Mary is not one of the Ivy League schools but has been called a "public ivy."

The chart shows John Adams and John Quincy Adams as having earned master's degrees, which is not so.
