Did Lincoln need a college degree?

[Sicon]

As if a college education is some indication of one's ability, intelligence, or integrity?

Ha ha ha ha ha!

Lots of progressive gods never earned a degree. Ted Turner, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and Mark Zuckerberg just to name a few. Oh and let’s don’t forget most of their Hollywood gods.

Ted Cruz has Princeton and Harvard education.

I promise not to hold against him his association with those leftist hellholes.

The president needs to understand the office. Comrade obama has repeated the oath four times and still doesn’t get it. If he really does understand the oath of office and has been deliberately disregarding it, he should be removed from office immediately.

"Truman didn’t."

I don't think Truman even had a middle name. I think I remember from somewhere that he only had a middle initial: "S".

[Political Junkie Too]

Sarah Palin has a college degree, but it was in journalism from Idaho, and so was rejected by the MSM as not worthy.

So it doesn't really matter if Walker has one or not, because the MSM will rig the argument either way.

That sounds about right to me. And if anything they are looking for ways to sell off chunks of the country to the highest bidder.

"Lots of progressive gods never earned a degree. Ted Turner, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and Mark Zuckerberg just to name a few. Oh and let’s don’t forget most of their Hollywood gods."

Also Walter Cronkite.

Only if he was (to be) a Master Degree

You remember from somewhere? It’s been a known fact since the 40s.

Truman didn’t go to college, and he was waaaay better than his predecessor, IMO.

Walker is going to be GREAT..!

[Steve_Seattle]

"You remember from somewhere? It’s been a known fact since the 40s."

I bet that a large majority of people don't know it, especially among people under the age of 50.

You’re right-—a lot of them probably don’t even know who he is. :-)

[JohnBrowdie]

yes, how foolish of him to jump out to the front of the pack so quickly and easily. the man should be disqualified immediately.

[2ndDivisionVet]

Oh, is that what you took from that?

Mitt Romney was an attorney at one time, he did pass the bar, and was licensed in Michigan.

MITT “enrolled in Brigham Young University. He graduated in 1971 with a Degree in English, with a 3.97GPA. His young family then moved to Boston, and Mitt enrolled in both Harvard Law (HLS) and Harvard Business School (HBS). He obtained his MBA from HBS in 1975 and graduated cum laude from HLS with his Juris Doctor the same year, finishing in the top 5% of his class.”

[Texas Songwriter]

Yea. The Harvard, Yale, and Princeton types have really gotten us in a great position.

Do you know there is no requirement to be a lawyer to sit on the Supreme Court, as I understand it?

Probably not, my step dad became the County judge a few years after he retired from his job, and he had never attended college.

[Carry_Okie]

They left out Abraham Lincoln.

No, they didn't.
