[quote=Anonymous][quote] Pick a Supreme Court justice who didn't go to an Ivy league school, pick the last president who didn't. [/quote] You are absolutely right, but we're not talking about law school here or even undergraduate. We're talking about grade school. So... Antonin Scalia (son of immigrants) went to public elementary school and then an all-boys Jesuit high school Sonia Sotomayor (daughter of immigrants) lived in a tenement house, and then a multi-ethnic neighborhood. She attended a local parochial school Samuel Alito (son of immigrants) attended public schools Ruth Bader Ginsburg (daughter of immigrants) attended public schools Clarence Thomas (son of a farm worker and a domestic laborer) attended public schools Stephen Breyer attended a public magnet school My takeaway from this is that if I want my kids to be friends with future Supreme Court justices, I should send them to public school with working class immigrant families.
