I wonder what SAT scores are for the CEO of Lehman bros. or AIG or for that matter Paulson.

I'll take common sense over SAT think anyday. There are too many stupid genius' out there.

Just wondering, would you rather have a Doctor that was the top of their class with stellar grades or would you rather take the guy with average grades but with a lot of "common sense"? Yeah I'm pretty sure you'd want the best doctor to be in charge of your health, so why would you want the average person to be running the country?

Oh well, I mean Zack Morris got 1500 on his SAT's on Saved By The Bell. Does that mean he'd be better at the job?

Because we are told how smart this woman is, even though all of her educational achievements belie this fact. I am not sure how she got into college at all without taking them again? Maybe pageant money helped grease the skids. SATs really give you a good snapshot as to your thinking abilities. Sen McCain's POW and military service was almost 40 years ago, but we hear about that ad nauseum.

I cannot be a member of the ruling class - even if I were capable and/or had the persuasion. I am happy pursuing my third degree. We all have a right to read and react on this forum.

Additionally, why are you even worried about what Democrats did? You need to be more worried about why your candidate is at his lowest point in the polls yet.
How do I know???? Obama ADMITTED he had poor grades at OCCIDENTAL COLLEGE. Now, what could possibly propel one from being a poor student at Occidental to COLUMBIA? Would a white student who had poor grades be able to make that leap?

And do you know that Hillary didn't get into Harvard Law? Uh, hello, she got into Yale Law. Perhaps that's what she WANTED?! Or maybe there weren't any spots left at Harvard Law for white people. Yes, indeed, Obama is the AFFIRMATIVE ACTION candidate.

I'm not "worried" about what the Dems did -- they made their choice. But I was a Hillary supporter and I still can't believe they passed her over for "that one."

Amazing, I'm not voting for Obama because I don't think he's qualified and I'm called a racist.

But yet you people have no problem throwing the word retarded arounded and that's ok.
