re: #417 Targetpractice, Worst of Both Worlds

Clinton at least got in by being, as Obi pointed out, a Rhodes scholar. And even he had to rely upon scholarships to get the money to attend college, unlike Dubya, Gore, or the Kennedys, who just had daddy’s money/influence do all the talking for them.

I don’t want to diminish the accomplishments of any of those guys. Even Dubbya, who had a reputation for being kinda dumb. I think he is probably smarter than people give him credit for.
