EDUCATION BACKGROUND OF THE PRESIDENTIAL TICKETS: Obama/Biden vs. McCain/Palin

Let's look at the educational background of the candidates and see what they bring to the job:

Barack Obama:
-- Columbia University - B.A.
-- Political Science with a Specialization in International Relations.
-- Harvard - Juris Doctor (J.D.) Magna Cum Laude
Joseph Biden:
-- University of Delaware - B.A. in History and B.A. in Political Science.
-- Syracuse University College of Law - Juris Doctor (J.D.)

vs.

John McCain:
-- United States Naval Academy - Class rank: 894 of 899 (meaning that, like George Bush, McCain was right at the bottom of his class)
Sarah Palin:
-- Hawaii Pacific University - 1 semester
-- North Idaho College - 2 semesters - general study
-- University of Idaho - 2 semesters - journalism
-- Matanuska-Susitna College - 1 semester
-- University of Idaho - 3 semesters - B.A. in Journalism

Education isn't everything... believe me, I understand that... but these positions are about the two highest offices in the land, as well as a representation of our standing in the world.
The choice is easy... I just want a smart president this time around!
