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.

Howard Dean has been a practicing physician, so I am willing to stipulate that he has college degrees.
However, I have seen no evidence whatsoever that Barack Obama has a college degree.
Then how does he explain Obama? He went to college.
After graduating from Princeton, Cruz attended Harvard Law School, graduating magna cum laude in 1995 with a Juris Doctor degree.[7][40] While at Harvard Law, Cruz was a primary editor of the Harvard Law Review, and executive editor of the Harvard Journal of Law and Public Policy, and a founding editor of the Harvard Latino Law Review.[6] Referring to Cruz’s time as a student at Harvard Law, Professor Alan Dershowitz said, “Cruz was off-the-charts brilliant.”[19][41] At Harvard Law, Cruz was a John M. Olin Fellow in Law and Economics.[42]

Such a shame that his mouth kept him from showing us all how knowledgeable he really is.
Perhaps Mr. Walker should just put “Reverend” in front of his name like a couple of current Democratic hucksters have done and then no one will question him...
Most of the people in this country with degrees got them from “lowly public colleges” I would imagine.
Hey Howey!
What is your excuse for your ignorance?
I’ve got only one thing to say to this elitist, liberal, gasbag; “corpse-man”.
Twice Obama has declared that George Washington brewed beer in a White House that Washington never lived in.
Well, ‘mister dean’, I guess i don’t fit your mold, either, and I am most happy for that!
I am something this great Howard Dean never was ... a military veteran!
You forgot FDR, Calvin Coolidge, William Howard Taft, Rutherford B. Hayes and many others.
I was an A$$hat at 18, I hated school... I got a job taking care of airplanes and eventually “ran the line” and that led me to want more in life.
At 52, I have a gorgeous wife, who loves God and is the mother of my 5 beautiful kids, kicks a$$ at golf (a 9) and is a knockout. I have multiple business that are doing well and I am an IFR rated pilot... In other words, I’ve lived, loved, and been successful in my life(thank you Lord), but I always feel uneasy when the college subject comes up.
This Punk, and that is what he is and has always been, was spoon fed from the time he was slapped on the ass and couldn’t lead a fly to a picnic.
I can’t tell you how offended I am by pricks like this. In my experience, the smartest guys in the room, and I’m not taking about me here, are the ones with little or no parchment on the wall.
F this Jackass!
I’m sending Walker a check the moment he announces.
I know I did!
Howard Dean is a doctor and a certifiable moron.
Basically, Joe Biden with less gaffes.
College degrees from Yale and Harvard have been the source of more harm to America than any other external enemy, in my opinion.
Most entrepreneurs don’t have a college degree, Howard! Only idiot politicians like you would (who have a degree...I’m not sure in what) have the GAUL to ridicule the success the likes of Scott Walker. You, Howard, are a pathetic excuse of humanity.
BTW, Mr. elitist, your boy in the WH has a PHD in LAW (laughable) and is by far the worst leader this country has ever had.
Some quotes from the highly knowledgable Sheila Jackson Lee........
1. “I stand here as a freed slave because this Congress came together.”
2. "I am a queen, and I demand to be treated like a queen."
3. "Today, we have two Vietnams, side by side, North and South, exchanging and working. We may not agree with all that North Vietnam is doing, but they are living in peace. I would look for a better human rights record for North Vietnam, but they are living side by side."
4. "All those who wore sheets a long time ago have now lifted them off and started wearing, uh, clothing, uh, with a name, say, I am part of the tea party."
5. "Dont let anybody tell you that those who spit on us as we were walking to vote on a health care bill for all of America or those who said Congresswoman Jackson-Lees braids were too tight in her hair had anything to do with justice and equality and empowerment of the American people. Dont let them fool you on that."
6. "A historical fact: President Bush pushed this nation into a war that had little to do with apprehending terrorists. We did not seek an impeachment of President Bush, because as an executive, he had his authority. President Obama has the authority.”
7. “Maybe I should offer a good thanks to the distinguished members of the majority, the Republicans, my chairman and others, for giving us an opportunity to have a deliberative constitutional discussion that reinforces the sanctity of this nation and how well it is that we have lasted some 400 years, operating under a constitution that clearly defines what is constitutional and what is not.”
8. “We have martial law. What that means – and my colleagues know what it means – is that you can put a bill on in just minutes.”
9. “Don't you know who I am? I'm Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee. Where is my seafood meal? I know it was ordered.”
10. "Will the Mars Rover be able to show the flag the astronauts planted there before?"
I would not be the least surprised that Obama conflates himself with Washington. Much like Brian Williams, he is. Always wants the center of attention, he does.
