Don't you think a presidential qualification should be at least a C?

Question

Bush was drunk for 4 years and earned a C- from yale. In addition, he has a hard time with English. He also isn't very bright! You know, the lights on nobody home.

There is no question Bush was drunk almost all of his 4 years.

A C- is 62 and Kerry had a 77 or B+ average at Yale..

Besides' the question wasn't about Kerry!!

And Nush is damn sure no Thodes scolar like Clinton.

Answer 2

Gore and Kerry are out then.

Did you go to college? You ever have a beer in college? Maybe go to a party or two? I'd rather a leader who is real than one who "didn't inhale" so to speak.

He has a hard time with English? Guessing you've never heard him speak live, in fact I'm guessing the only real evidence you have are the one line soundbites. If someone would record your every word for eight years then go through and only pick out the dumb things you said how would others judge you?

I don't like the man because of his policy and the fact that in spite of controlling both houses the GOP has failed to curb the massive government growth and excessive spending.

Answer 3

It won't fly! You would eliminate most of the front runner in both parties. anyone with a "C average" has enough sense not to want the job. I think the President of the United States should be interviewed and tested by Qualified Human Resource personel/ A back ground check both criminal and financial. If they pass then they should be allowed to run for the office. During campaigns, No notes or written answers to questions will be allowed. All answers will be answered without prior knowlege and without notes or advice. Cameras will show body language and a close up to show them sweat. Only then will debates begin and the same rules apply. One debate per week , without more than 4 hours notice from Sept to Election day.

Answer 4

Dear cantcu or whatever you call yourself. President Bush made better grades than Kerry. Only two intellectuals were ever in the Whitehouse Kennedy and Roosevelt. The President is not stupid at all, you and other liberals just want to make him out to be.

Answer 5

Actually, as much as I think Bush is an imbecile, I'd have to say no. I myself went to an ivy league school and I have to say, its not easy. If you went to the University of Wyoming like Cheney and get a C-, well then something's definitely wrong. However, I seriously doubt that Bush got that C- on his own. Just as I believe in President Rove.

Answer 6

At least his GPA was higher than Kerry....and Gore dropped out of some backwoods college....

Lincoln never went to college, Truman stuttered and was a horrible speaker. Then there was Carter.....nuclear physics for his degree and an absolute failure in all categories, including selling out Israel so he could get a legacy.

btw......georgie has a masters from harvard as well, and got a decent gpa in that pursuit.

Answer 7

Well by that Al Gore and Kerry would have need kick out before Bush. There grades were lower than bushes. Look it up.

Answer 8

EXACTLY!

I really wish we had someone that was well spoken and more intelligent for our president. I hate it that the rest of the world is laughing every time Bush is on TV. He is a puppet.

I didn't mind Clinton.. I don't care who he is screwing.. that was totally Hillary's issue and none of my business.

On the other side (party)of things I'd have voted for Colin Powell, I think he is a very common sense guy.. and we need more of that.

Answer 9

I think the basic qualification should be that the brat should be a human being;which I am sure lot of polititions are not..including son of dady bush.

Answer 10

no,
education doesn't necessarily reflect one's ability
and andrew johnson never went to school, and was illiterate until his wife taught him
