Why did we elect a C- college student to office?

Question

lets see what bush is...hmm...past druggie who back in the day would fly him and his friends out of crawford to georgia where they would party and do cocaine at his dad's friends' oil refineries. a man to thinks in black and white there is never an in between. a man who cannot say "nuclear." a man who barely graduated college. a man who wages war yet professes to be prolife. i am pretty sure our president never fought in a war. am i missing anything?

Answer 1

yes, you seem to be missing a lot..

Answer 2

Average (or above) for MOST Americans?  I have no clue - I didn't vote for him either time because he's an illiterate BOOB!!

Answer 3

idk, he seemed better than the demo at the time? maybe that's why? The second time, alot of people have light proof that Bush's brother that works within the election polls changed it, because due to survey that should give an average outcome of the US voters, people were in favor of Kerry more than Bush, and trusted Kerry, and most people were voted for Kerry, however, the votes must've "malfunctioned".

Answer 4

Yep, what does a C-College student have anything to do with it?

But I think you forgot to add he is a LIAR, oh wait everyone in politics is.

Answer 5

I didn't.  I could smell that rat a mile away.

Answer 6

Well, to your credit, you are missing a lot. You did not bring up his girl-friend in Midland, Texas or the house he was sued for trashing in Alabama...(while supposedly in in the Texas National Guard... Or the Texas Lottery scandals -  Harriet Miers and the Law firm she was a partner in got him out of that one. I guess you missed the YouTube video of him drunk at a wedding party 4-5 years after he supposedly quit drinking.

Oh, you missed the big law-suits by parents that were upset about their KIDS getting branded with coat hangers when GWB was Frat Pres. during hazing at Harvard.... Wonder how many law makers in Congress have the scars on their backside now? (Kerry was a member of Skull and Bones...does he have a scar? Actually, I think he was there earlier than torture boy)

You also missed the fact that his first oil business actually stole some leases from one of his fathers businesses. (Documented) Everyone of his businesses failed and he had 4 or 5 SEC investigations on insider trading that were stopped by Daddy. (Documented)

But essentially you got it right.

Somehow, they made stupid/ordinary sound good to the average joe. Marketing at its most insidious ...or finest.

Answer 7

Did you know that John Kerry's grades were pretty similar to Bush's?  The way I see it, we got the better of two bad choices as far as academics go.

Answer 8

USA citizens voted him into the President's Office twice.

Blame the poor Education System in the USA.

Answer 9

If you are referring to Bush, he got a B average (Kerry got a C).  But college grades, or intelligence in general, are not a good predictor of success in the White House; leadership skills (and the ability to use them) are much more important.  Reagan's Presidency was an outstanding success, while Carter (arguably the most intelligent man elected to the Presidency in the 20th century) was a flop.
