Lucky for him...finding England and Russia on a map would have been
difficult for him otherwise. ;-)



Once again, d.f., Clinton was a Rhodes Scholar.



And Bush was a Yale grad with an MBA.


Bush got into Yale as a "legacy admission": his daddy went there. It
was a form of affirmative action.

Not sure how he managed to get a Harvard MBA, but I suspect some of

Bush
I's money had a lot to do with it.


Bush was referred to as a "legacy" by many while he was an undergrad at
Yale.


You guys are funny. If you think that a dummy could get a BA at Yale, an
MBA at Harvard, own a professional baseball team, get elected and

re-elected
as governor of Texas and then elected as POTUS, then you are obviously the
fools.



You should try and get a college admissions counselor to sit down and talk
to you sometime. Get him/her a little bit drunk. You'd be amazed at what
goes on in the name of "legacy admissions", or when a wealthy potential
donor is lurking behind the student under consideration. Or, even worse, to
quote a counselor I speak to daily, "His grades were marginal, but the
marching band needs brass and the kid's been playing trombone since he was
11."
