[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Before this spins into the inevitable Republican bashing, allow me to point out that after G.W. Bush bravely cheered his way through Yale, subsequent Bush children went to UTexas, Tulane, UVa, & Boston College. [/quote] George W. attended Andover (legacy) and Yale (legacy), where he got terrible grades. He then somewhat famously got rejected from UTexas law school (public, not a legacy) before attending Harvard Business School. Also, if you don’t think the Bush name helped those kids get into that list of top schools, you are incorrect. The Bush family are poster children for legacy admissions and privilege and wealth helping less talented, intelligent, and hard working generations to fail upwards.[/quote] Yup. I know a branch of the family where the kids all went to Yale, and all appear to be dingbats.[/quote]
