Obama

Harvard was already going downhill in the 1950s.

These days, grade inflation there makes State Universities look tame in comparison.

The Ivy League is not what it once was and Yale Law blows away Harvard Law any day of the week. Even Stanford Law beats it.

BTW, Magna Cum Laude does not mean "top of the class". That would be maxima cum laude. At Harvard, "Magna Cum Laude" means a 3.3 GPA. Top of the class? Not even close.

We are in complete agreement. Like I said, the Idaho scool sports journalism is today's gold standard.

How do we know? We can see how thousands of foreigners, Chinese, Indians, are waiting in line to register there.

Actually, not. Affirmative Action taints the whole process. We don't know if Obama actually qualified to get into Harvard or not. Also, Affirmative Action works its way into the grading process at Harvard so we also don't know if that had anything to do with his GPA or not.

A 3.3 GPA doesn't impress me. Heck, it doesn't even beat ME, so by that standard, Obama isn't brighter than I am.

If Obama had real management or executive experience, I'd be impressed. He has none. Zip, zero, nada, none.

Sarah Palin has more executive experience than Obama and Biden combined and therefore is more qualified for President than Obama is, if you want to go down that road.

Heck, I'm more qualified than Obama based on a resume' of management and executive experience and I'm a decade younger than he is.

USNA is also harder just to get into than Harvard is since each graduating class is only 1000 persons.

McCain only got into USNA because his father and grandfather were admirals.

Just like Obama only got into Harvard Law school thanks to affirmative action, and Dumbya got into Yale and Harvard business school thanks to his father and grandfather's wealth, power, and connections.

None of these guys are exactly great talents who made it in life through merit or personal achievement.

Did Sarah Palin pull favors to get into an ivy league school? No she is regular folk and that is refreshing.

This choice says much more about McCain than it does about Palin, What it says about McCain is that he is more interested in politics than policy, more interested in campaigning than governing, tactical when he should be strategic, and reckless when he should be considered.

He is as big a gamble as president as Palin is as vice-president. This decision was about gut, about politics, about cynicism, and about vanity. It's just like something Bush would do.

Based on the concept of who of the four would best be able to run a government not that I think any of the them could I must say Palin is proberly the most qualified
