What a snob! On today's Morning Joe, Howard Dean, a product of fancy prep schools and Yale, suggested that Scott Walker was unfit to be president because his lack of a college degree rendered him "unknowledgeable."
Dean's disdain for the un-diplomaed came during a discussion of Walker having declined, during his recent trip to the UK, to state whether he believes in evolution. Joe Scarborough was incredulous at Dean's diss, pointing out that people such as Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg never finished college. To which list could be added super-successful and knowledgeable people from Rush Limbaugh to Steve Jobs, among many others.

Typical eliteist.
god thing it was on pmsnbc, only 8 people heard it.
Right. Bill gates did ok without a degree
If Republicans were savvy, which they aren’t, they would hit the Dems over the head with insulting comments such as these by leading Democrats.
Snobby Howard Dean disses Scott Walker for lack of college degree. Ping to Today show list.
I know a couple of UofM professors who are less than thrilled with the quality of students getting degrees these days.
You can tell when the libs are scared and buggin’ out about a Conservative, they attack every chance they get. Just like Sarah P.
“unfit to be president because his lack of a college degree rendered him “unknowledgeable.”
We got one in the WH now. There are no records, right?
Howard Dean might be a doctor but he’s as stupid as the year is long.

I see he was asked if he believed in evolution the other day.
We’ve had a ton of Ivy League Democrats screw up this country royally, so what’s your point Howie? This fool needs to realize that many Americans who are successful don’t have a degree, and really college doesn’t teach you how to get a job or how to deal with real life situations. Real reach there Howie.
Harry Truman didn’t have a college degree either.
sometimes a person has learned something more valuable, like common sense. And besides, Obama and Dean has degrees and they are as dumb as a bag of wet mice.
But if Walker is the nominee it will be a constant drumbeat from The Left. Sorry to say. Of course the idea that a Community Organizer can attend a Univerty where nobody can remember seeing him and then be promoted to President of the United States in a few short years is not an issue.
What a country. More proof of the power of the MSM.
Howard is the dean of stupidity.
Funny that Dean would say this since the last president without a degree was a democrat, Harry Truman, who was without doubt, “knowledgeable.”
Gov. Sarah Palin has a bachelors degree in communications (journalism) yet I’m sure that Gov. Howard Dean has bashed her and called her stupid in the past. Senator Ted Cruz graduated with highest honors from Harvard Law School and Princeton, and yet I imagine that Dean and many others will call him stupid. Ignore these fools.
Mark Finkelstein has degrees from Cornell, SUNY Buffalo, and Harvard Law.
