How exactly did George W. Bush get into Yale?

Legacy Admission. If you do not have the smarts, but if your dad went there, you can be admitted via Legacy Admissions. Yes, really.

He got in by a LOT of Yale admissions at that time... he was the son of a wealthy and prestigious alumni.

Listen, I'm a regular guy with a regular guy dad but if I were wealthy and prestigious I would pull any strings for my kid. I do not hold anything against George HW or George W Bush for that. Its just the way things are.

Consider the might of his father even before he became president as well as that of his grandfather. You don't need good grades if you're a legacy from a rich and powerful family. That's a given. It's known as affirmative action for the rich.

He is a lot smarter than some of those running the country today! No underwear bomber would have even considered to blow up a plane at Christmas if George W. Bush was President! What school did Obama, Pelosi, Barney Frank go to? They act like their grades were far below the Bush marks.

He actually did better than Gore (Gore took the test after they were made easier). Besides, he was able to complete his courses and graduate. Ironic, if Bush was hispanic or some other minority, would you have questioned those scores?

properly, because you're able to be able to desire to stand for what you have faith in i could %. GWB. Even in the face of human beings telling him he's incorrect, he's a liar, he became into an alcoholic, etc., he did what he concept became into dazzling. He accompanied his ideals. in spite of else you fault him with he did not base his strikes off of what he concept could be common. invoice, to boot showing he has no morals, and additionally making comments related to the present president that exhibits he has no type, used an excellent form of rhetoric. i think of he did what became into common, and that i don't even understand if he knows what's ideal. He confirmed he would not admire himself via cheating on his spouse (oral intercourse is intercourse, it incredibly is why it has intercourse in this is call. and if he had intercourse with somebody else he cheated!), he confirmed he would not admire his spouse, and he confirmed that he became into prepared to risk lots for a 2d of private delight. additionally, in case you opt to envision lives and conflict, check out Sarajevo. you could not isolate Bush as a "conflict-monger", invoice became into doing defense force operations besides. based off what all of us understand right this moment, i could %. Bush. even however he could have faults, he has below slick Billy.

Papa Bush pulled some strings.

It shows what happens when you know the right people or have the right name.

same way he deserted his military post without suffering any consequences
