It seems pretty obvious that the people of Arizona care nothing about education when they elected a person without even a bachelor's degree to the highest political office of the State.

Jan Brewer went to a community college and did not even get a degree from there. Arizona seems to be the State for Anti-intellectualism. I am not saying that having a degree makes a person more intelligent, but it certainly shows that they have acquired a little bit of knowledge. Based on Brewer's actions, it is obvious as to why she could not even get a degree from community college.

Her selection says a lot about the people of Arizona.

So you think a degree is the only way to acquire knowledge?

Evidence Democrats care more about qualifications, than they do abilities..

Michael Dell, Henry Ford, Bill Gates, Andrew Jackson, John Rockefeller, Mark Zuckerberg are some people who have never obtained college degrees.. I guess the OP considers them failures.

So, it would seem that there is no point for this thread.

So does a college degree now confer intelligence? I have known many intelligent people, my father being one, who had no college education.

What particularly, do you feel you learned in college that would prepare you to be governor? I have a BS and two advanced degrees. None of my degrees would offer any insight or guidance in being governor of my state. Again, tell me specifically which classes you took in college which would provide useful information or preparation for being a governor?

If Barack Hussein Obama is an example, he is proof positive that degrees from so-called good schools are no guarantee one is smart enough to come in out of the rain. Man, that man is one stupid sucker! The dumb bunny doesn't even know how many states are in the United States of America.

I had no idea she had accomplished anything other than being elected. Please do list some of her accomplishments.

Poor thing. Don't you know how to spell GOOGLE?

Do your own research.

I'll bet you a million bucks she can say, without thinking, how many states are in the United States of America. Who's the really dumb one?
