ORIGINAL: slvemike4u Please produce saod poll/s which purport to show her winning a general election........please? Mike, have you seen her opponent? A "bearded marxist" by his own description! And,.....he went to,......"Amherst"...... so he may let you in the house to clean his carpets. And then,.....to "YALE" "divinity school. I didn't think men went there since the Vietnam war. ("2-S?") Which Amherst? UMass Amherst? What's so weird about going to Yale Divinity school? That's a top one in the country. Oh yeah, Popeye, the Ivys offer financial aid, doncha know? Thorn, "Amherst College" not "Zoo Mass." During Vietnam you couldn't get into most divinity schools, you couldn't get into most schools period because they were all full. Hell, you couldn't get into the National Guard unless your father was a wealthy doctor, businessman, lawyer etc. National Guard units didn't go to Vietnam in those days, if they needed 100,000 guys they just drafted them! And noone wanted to get drafted so those N.G. spots were much coveted and many a state rep or senator got calls from,..."the beautiful people" inquiring about young Arther's chances of serving his country, ...in the National Guard of course. And yes, I'm aware that ivy league schools offer financial aid but you'd always be "the bus driver's kid." They have "trust funds" from their grandfathers and great grandfathers and many of them could probably "buy" the schools they attend. Ah. You mean like Bush 43. You know, pops, you sound like a heathen that would advocate income redistribution. My beef with the Ivys is the whole legacy admission process, where you get a lot of consideration if one of your parents are an alumni.
