===> "You are making the assumption (wrongly IMO) that people with degrees are smarter than those without." <=== Do you think that a high school diploma is the same thing as a degree? I want the best candidates and the most qualified leaders for our country. In all trades, whether it be medicine, or science, or education, or transportation, we should all want the best qualified, best trained, most competent people. Do you really want people who cannot show even the basics of learning, a high school diploma, or worse to select the leaders for our country? If so, don't complain if we get leaders who make stupid decisions, because you have already gotten your wish. We already have some leaders who are incompetent, who are bad at management, who are bad at leadership, who are bad analysts, who are bad at planning; the result of which is mistakes all over our system. You've gotten your wish, and you didn't even know it! Today's voters don't have to even prove that they aren't brain dead to vote.
