Scott Walker is a college dropout. Should that count against him?

[Meathead]

Yes, I assumed everyone knew we were talking about adults. I guess that was an erroneous assumption.

so only those between 25 and 64 are adults?

Idiot!

 

[2aguy]

Actually, it is probably a great benefit....

Lincoln was our greatest president and he had a first grade education, Washington did not go to college, and FDR had a law degree from Columbia, I believe.

I don't think the American voter will hold being a college drop out against Walker.

 

[Meathead]

Truman never graduated from college.

Obozo's affirmative action degrees didn't count against him.

Scott Walker politician - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

In 1986, Walker worked as a volunteer for Tommy Thompson's gubernatorial campaign,[9] and in the fall of that year, enrolled at Marquette University.[10] In 1988, he ran for student government president, losing 1,245 to 927,[9] following an alleged infringement of campaign guidelines.[4] Walker dropped out of Marquette in the spring of 1990, in good standing with a 2.59/4.0 GPA[11] but without attaining a degree.[9][12] During college Walker worked part-time for IBM selling warranties on mainframe computers. His IBM job led to a full-time position in marketing and fundraising at the American Red Cross from 1990 to 1994.[4][13]

I think it shows he's a quitter. The fact he can't balance a state budget will be worse though. Give that guy military spending and the debt will continue to grow.

Well, the fact that he lied about how close he was to getting his degree is not helpful either.

The guy is a dishonest creep, that's what counts.

Really, how so?

Obama's college records?
.

We all have Henry- we just aren't sharing them with you.

You can tell how good a President someone will be, by measuring:

1.) How loudly and hysterically liberals scream at him;
2.) How many lies they gin up about him;
3.) and how little evidence they present to back up what they say about him.

By the Lib-o-meter of this thread, it looks like Scott Walker is the best candidate Republicans have fielded in a long time.

LOL....wow- that is great- works as a Con-0-Meter too

Thanks for posting that.

a) I think anyone who bases their vote for a President on how well he or she did in college- or whether he or she finished college is an idiot- so no- Walker's lack of a college degree should not matter- though certainly it will come up.

b) There never was any reason why Barack Obama's undergrad degree from Columbia or law degree from Harvard Law should be counted against him. Or Bush's degree from Yale or Masters from Harvard.

I don't think Walker's lack of a college degree should be held against him. I think that his record as Governor (pro or con) and his other stances should be considered instead.

I actually agree with this. A college degree is so overrated anyway, especially in the last 10 years or so with grade inflation. Unfortunately it won't be the case and for national office it's certain to come up.

BS. He got those degrees thru affirmative action and that makes them honorary. The schools lowered their standards to let him in and to keep him there.

 

[ShootSpeeders]

What I would count against him is if he lacks commitment to making sure as many kids as possible have the opportunity to get a degree without taking on more debt than a Mercedes costs.

You seem to think all degrees are the same and that's nonsense.. A PHD in sociology isn't worth 1/10th of a bachelors in math or physics. Colleges should only teach STEM.

THINK

 

[ShootSpeeders]

They were as big of idiots as the idiots who attack Obama for his college records.

What college records? They'be been classified by obozo. Bush tried the same stunt but the press did it's job and exposed his college records. With O they haven't even tried.

but at least he has a valid birth certificate, he didnt have to photo shop one two years after becoming governor.

 

[blackhawk]

The majority of if not all of the members of Congress have college degrees as did those who came before them same with the current and past Presidents how good of a job do you think all those college grads did?

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

The majority of Americans do not have a college degree, so every time the Democrats demean Scott Walker about his lack of a college education they are insulting the majority of the electorate. Considering that most of these people are also the very same blue collar or lower income workers the Dems claim to be fighting for this may not be the smartest strategy on their part.
