The fact of the matter is you are assuming Obama worked as an undergrad. We don't know that. It is, IMHO, unfair of you to castigate Hillary for being a "silver spoon" because she didn't have to work while in school and not look at Obama with the same rigor. I am holding your polemical feet to the fire here a bit only since you were so vociferous about Hillary in this regard. If it turns out Obama didn't work as undergrad do you concede the point that there really isn't a whole lot of difference in their educational experiences with both getting "work free" rides at "elite" schools? (Maybe Obama even more than Hillary since I think, but am not sure, that he got help to attend a private HS in Hawaii whereas I think Hillary went to public HS.)
