“She subsequently graduated from Yale University and from Harvard Law School. In 1993, at age 23, she became a U.S. citizen.”
This is so typical. First, the Ivy colleges prefer to take people like her, for the same reason that the pseudo-intellectual cocktail crowd wouldn’t be caught dead serving cheddar from Wisconsin. They preferentially want people who are anything but ‘middle America’ or traditional America (unless of course they have rich families, or some form of fame).
For totally unwarranted and demonstrably destructive reasons, those who wind up with Ivy/’name university’ credentials are given much easier access to influence. It’s a ‘club’, and it has a fairly impressive track record of handicapping and hurting American society. Why should this woman’s opinion matter more, and why should she have more influence on American society than a plumber from Oshkosh?
It’s long past time that “club” has its meetings at the end of a rope.
