No politician left behind
Considering how obsessed our country is with standardized tests these days, you'd think we'd demand elected officials who did a little better in the college classroom:
- President Bush was notorious for striving for a "gentleman's C" during his Yale University days.
- U.S. Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., whose GPA also hovered in the C zone, joked to his father that "D stood for distinction."
- U.S. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., finished fifth from the bottom of his Naval Academy class.
