Well, President Clinton had 8 Ivies in his cabinet. Bush has 9. Obama has 8. Where's the Change?
And, all told so far, 24 of his 37 appointments hold degrees from an Ivy school, MIT, Stanford, University of Chicago, Oxford or Cambridge, making his Administration the most saturated by Ivy since JFK's.
Now, being that I'm not particulary against any of this, I'm not trying to act like a Democrat and point the finger at someone's elitism as if that's an entirely bad thing in and of itself, lol. However, it deserves being pointed out since it is another nonChange, but more of the same. In fact, more of the same on the heels of all Obama's moves to the center-right that include keeping the Bush tax cuts for an extended period of time (at least), keeping the troops in Iraq--increasing them in Afghanistan, being a hawk on Iran, maintaining SDI/star wars/missile defense....so, hey, these are not bad things and partisan democrats who were part of the hate-Bush syndrome need to recognize how petty, disgraceful and superficial and wrong they've been over the past 4 or 5 years and grow up.
