Amen.
Great article that addresses that topic here: Even a Yale Pedigree Could Leave One Unemployed. Neal Boortz's commentary on this story, that I posted on the thread, is a classic.
Teddy Roosevelt went to Harvard, so I can't quite agree (perhaps he was an exception). But generally my favorite Presidents were NOT Ivy Leaguers. Woodrow Wilson was President of Princeton, and as U.S. President, he demonstrated the same pathetic naivete (eg. "14 Points", League of Nations "world peace" fantasies) that we have come to expect from "elites" today in Europe and the U.S...feckless appeasers and cowards all.
Bush is president SOLELY because of his father and paternal grandfather ? What about the fact that his maternal great + granfather was also a president of the USA ? Perhaps it is because he is by nature and nurture predisposed to be an able, capable president .
How many millions of Ivy League grads have NOT been president ? Is that the failure of those schools ?
Reagan's father was a nasty , mean drunk and an abect failure. Bush's father was born into priviledge. All this means, is that America is a wonderful nation, where everyone has a chance to become anything ; still.
