Harry Truman didn't have a degree.now why do people think she is qualified to be president?????
wow, this thread blew up on the idea that an ivy league college education and law degree makes you less qualified to be president than a communications degree from public university?
im sure everyone strives to send their children to the University of Idaho instead of Columbia or Harvard.
I think most parents would be happy to get thier kids in and through college.
My daughter is planning on going to Penn State.
In your eyes, that makes her a lesser person, b/c someone else went to an Ivy league college.
And you don't see the arrogance in your fucked up way of thinking?
pfft
Heaven forbid a former enlisted man ran for Office! All that knowledge, training, and know how is meaningless b/c he lacks a degree.

it doesnt make her a lesser person in my eyes at all. Penn State is a good school. but when interviewing with a fortune 500 or similar company right out of college, they tend to look at the school you went to as one of the decision makers in the process. it is not the sole reason why someone does or doesnt get hired. but someone with a 4.0 from Harvard vs. a 4.0 Central Michigan doesnt necessitate the same education. the historic trend leans towards the harvard grad based on grades alone.
dont be mad at me. i didnt make the rules.
There you go Cali
But, he has a point. A degree is one part of education... it does not make one person better than or smarter than another. I view education as a life long process... I learn shit all the time. It didn't stop when I left University.
I am one of those cons that you constantly refer to. I am college educated, have a Masters, and still learning. You get your ass kicked because you constantly lie about 'cons'. Idiot. Go get one lie
And... for the record... I know many people who have not been to college. And they are pretty smart people... they just chose a different road. Why do you constantly have to dismiss anyone who chooses a different path? Perhaps if you showed a little less arrogance and stopped ridiculing anyone who doesn't fit within your world view, you would develop a better understanding of people. Or... you could just carry on lying and labeling everyone who disagrees with you as a 'liar'.
I never said what you claimed I said.
I did NOT say I dismiss anyone who was uneducated?
I didnt did I.
Now we have an example of ANOTHER lie by you.

George Washington, served as 1st President of the United States from 1789 to 1797
Andrew Jackson, served as 7th President of the United States from 1829 to 1837
Martin Van Buren, served as 8th President of the United States from 1837 to 1841
William Henry Harrison, served as 9th President of the United States in 1941*
Zachary Taylor, served as 12th President of the United States from 1849 to 1950*
Millard Fillmore, served as 13th President of the United States from 1850 to 1853
Abraham Lincoln, served as 16th President of the United States from 1861 to 1865*
Andrew Johnson, served as 17th President of the United States from 1865 to 1869
Grover Cleveland, served as 24th President of the United States from 1893 to 1897
Harry S. Truman, served as 33rd President of the United States from 1945 to 1953
The top 2 were Founders. Imagine a man being smart enough to be part of creating a country being considered to fucking unedjimuhkated to be President?
i found this really interesting:
here is Sarah Palin's education:
After graduating from high school, Palin enrolled at the University of Hawaii in Hilo. Shortly after arriving in Hawaii, Palin switched to Hawaii Pacific University for a semester in the fall of 1982 and then North Idaho College in the spring and fall of 1983. She attended the University of Idaho in the fall of 1984 and spring of 1985, and attended Matanuska-Susitna College in the fall of 1985. Palin returned to the University of Idaho in the spring of 1986, receiving her bachelor's degree in communications with an emphasis in journalism in 1987.
After graduating, she worked as a sportscaster for KTUU-TV and KTVA-TV in Anchorage, and as a sports reporter for the Mat-Su Valley Frontiersman, fulfilling an early ambition.
so to sum it up, she attended 5 (one of them twice) different colleges before getting a Communications degree.
Obama's Education:
Following high school, Obama moved to Los Angeles in 1979 to attend Occidental College.
Later in 1981 he transferred to Columbia University in New York City, where he majored in political science with a specialty in international relations and graduated with a B.A. in 1983. In late 1988, Obama entered Harvard Law School. He was selected as an editor of the Harvard Law Review at the end of his first year, and president of the journal in his second year. He graduated with a Juris Doctor (J.D.) magna cum laude from Harvard in 1991
so to sum this one up, starts at Occidental, finishes at Columbia with a degree in political science then graduates magna cum laude with a law degree (J.D.) from harvard.
not to knock the University of Idaho, but it sure as hell isnt Occidental, Columbia or Harvard.
now why do people think she is qualified to be president?????

Your annoying, I'm not angry, just annoyed. That you discredit or don't consider life being a part of learning.
What did Obama do that made him so qualified?

What do you think qualifies a person to bve President? I'm no Palin fan, hope she doesn't run and if she does, hope she loses. But to say she's not qualified is moronic...
US Constitution, Article II, Section 1:
No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the age of thirty-five years, and been fourteen years a resident within the United States.
Christ, that makes millions of Americans qualified. Fuckwit.

really you just posted 9 guys who lived prior to 1900. when many people didnt even get a primary school education, let alone a high school one or college one. seeing how the world has changed in the last 150-200 years, you might want to rethink your statement.
The OBVIOUS point - to anyone with any degree of common sense - is that college education, regardless of source, does not qualify/disqualify you to be President, and so try to arge that The Obama's education automatically makes Him incomparably superior to Palin, in terms of qualification to be President, is, at best, laughable.hes is the only pres since 1897 to not have a college degree. since this thread is not about truman and how qualified he was to be president, i fail to see your point.
Obama went to college, but he is clearly not educated.

The Obama is no better-educated than I am; despite His access to information I don't have, His grasp of the world is inferior to mine, and He's one of the most uncreative and unimaginative people I can think of. His education, as lordly as YOU may think it is, hasn't helped Him any of of this - one might even say it was lost on Him..

no it makes them eligible, not necessarily qualified.
Didn't read the OP
Plenty of people never go to college and have a better grasp of things than many people with plenty of degrees from expensive schools
Hell, dubbya bought an ivy-league diploma
Irrelevant to the point that the the specifics one someone's education in no way inherently qualifies/disqualifies someone to be President.ohhh so the education during the 1930's is the exact same as in 1980? because the majority of people went to college in the 30's.
I am indeed better educated in that I have both, and more.M14, so you have a undergrad and a law degree? so you can practice law? if you answer no to these two questions, that you are not better educated than the president.
Which, as you apparently simply refuse to believe, is meaningless.and yes Obama is more educated than Palin.
