10. Yes, it is much easier to govern a state.

Because as I said above, a governor has a very large staff and a very large bureaucracy helping him or her. If you'd like examples, both W and Reagan were governors. They are both incompetent morons who heavily relied on their staff to actually govern.

Not everyone can do it.

Nor can everyone complete college.

Oh, and BTW, now that they offer remedial education in colleges, a four-year degree doesn't mean nearly what it used to. There are an awful lot of people who wouldn't be able to complete their bachelor's without tutors and remedial ed.

And we had to walk uphill, both ways, to get to school.

Just bringing it up can come off as elitist...but it does say "quitter" all over it. libdem4life Feb 2015 #6

I would argue that Walker's quitting displays his own elitism starroute Feb 2015 #11

That certainly could be the case. Interesting interpretation. libdem4life Feb 2015 #12
