    A B.A. in economics make about as much sense as a B.A. in engineering or a B.A. in biology.

    But you can earn a B.A. in such majors, all it shows was that the person wasn't that serious in the major and took a lot of liberal basket weaving courses as electives.

    I'm not a birther, his mother was a citizen.

    But why do you suppose he wants to keep his records hidden?

    People who hide things have something to hide?

    And my undergraduate degree in economics got me into a premier university for my MBA.

    It is too bad an understanding od economics is not required to vote or hold office.

    Really? I went to college for the first time at the age of 39, and I completed a DOUBLE major in Economics and Psychology in 4 years. Received honors in both majors, college honors, and Phi Beta Kappa. I then went to an MBA program, did one year, and hated it, although I retained a B+ average. I then decided to move to a Master of social work program and completed it (with the internships required in addition to the courses) in 2 years. I was immediately hired in a large agency to do case management for 85 people with developmental disability.

    Yes, I would have made more money with an MBA. . .NO, I do not regret my choice and loved every minute I worked with that population and their family. As a bonus, my monthly take home pay was obviously lower than it would have been working as an MBA, but I was able to retire with a great pension, and my health care paid for the rest of my life.

    Don't knock it if you haven't tried it. It is not ALL about which degree one gets. . .it is about what a person you are, how you present yourself, how much you are willing to give to your career, and how long you can last in that career. . .which depends a lot about how much you enjoy (or hate) your job!

    I think it is too bad that an understanding of community organizing is not required to hold office. . .and President Obama has that experience!

    Why does he want his records hidden? Have you EVER wonder what Reagan's records or Kennedy's records, or even Clinton college records were? All I have heard about any other Presidents is WHERE they got their degrees from, and what kind of degree.

    We know that about President Obama. . .in fact, we know that he was the FIRST Black editor of the very prestigious Harvard law review. Do you think the average person get to hold that title if his college career is an average C?

    What else do you need to know about his college studies? Whether he took a criminology class, or an economics class (I bet he did, since he needed that to get into community organizing!). Do you think many young Black men would have been able to not only WRITE, but also PUBLISH a book as successful as Obama's?

    Why is it so important to know if he got a 3.8 point average or a 3.2 point average in Columbia?

    Because he is Black?

    Sellick and Gibsons earned a degree in the arts and were very successfull making money in the arts. Reagan earned a B.A. in economics and was some what successfull in the arts as an actor but he is better known for winning the Cold War and Reagan economics. :smile:

    There's nothing wrong with earning a B.A. as long as your going to use that degree in the profession of the arts. But if your goal is in the fields of engineering, medicine, mathmatics, science, finance and economics, etc. go for a B.S. You'll be glad you did.

    Why psychology Sadine ???

    Hey, I also took one course in psychology as an elective knowing that it was an easy course and would keep my GPA up.
    Personally I think psychology is a pseudoscience. My opinion.

    True story.
    Back during the late 1960's came across this guy who was covered from neck to his toes with tattoo's. He said from watching every ones reactions it made him the psychologist by observing their reactions. Makes sense.

    Because I had always wanted to understand people and what made them tick. Obviously, Psych 101 is an easy course. . .but I enjoyed every minute of it, especially when, as a junior, I started focusing on experimental and personality psychology, and did research with one of my professor. That research was ground breaking, and has since then (25 years now) provided information for at least 40 more research on personality. The professor's name (my mentor) is April Thorne, and she was kind enough to make me (and another of her student researcher, who is now a Ph.D psychologist in a large university hospital) her co-authors. I continued to work on that research project for about a year after graduating, and during my senior year, my mentor asked me to be a "cobaye" for undergraduate students who were also learning the psychological testing instruments (MMPI, MBTI, Rorschach, etc. . .). It was very entertaining (and eye opening) to answer the questions for all those students and then read their "assessments" of my "cobaye" persona!

    Still. . .I chose not to pursue a graduate career in Psychology, and instead ended up in Social work. Good choice for me. . .but in doing so, BOTH my economics and psychology backgrounds helped me tremendously to assist my clients and their families in making life decisions.

    And who created community organizing ? Saul Alinsky.

    Saul Alinsky even established schools (Industrial Areas Foundation) around the word to turn out community organizers to advance the radical left agenda of agitating the populace and dividing them. That's what community organizers do.

    Funny that before Obama slithered into the White House most liberals didn't even know who Saul Alinsky was. Not even Bill Maher didn't know until some conservatives told him back in 2009. Before Obama only law enforcement and some well informed conservatives knew who Alinsky was. I found out who Alinsy was and what community organizers really were from a FBI agent during the early 1970's.

    Alinsky's book "Rules For Radicals" is based upon what Alinsky learned from Al Capone and the mob. Yep, Alinsky had a hard-on for "Scar Face" and learned from Al Capone. Yep, they were friends. Saul Alinsky could have called his book "Rules For The Mob" but he chose "Rules For Radicals" instead."

    Now look on how Obama has been trying to run the country. The same way if Al Capone were have slithered into the White House.

    Community organizing is what allowed the civil rights to become reality (or almost. . .!) without too much blood being spilled (too much already, I admit!)

    Community organizing is what helps cities to not fall in ruin and to come back from disastrous catastrophes (like Katrina), without every low income and lower middle class families losing their home and heritage to gentrification.

    Community organizing is what Cezar Chavez did.

    Community organizing is what AFRICA needs

    Community organizing is what allows communities to survive epidemics (like AIDS), natural disasters, and to resist the take over of EVERY little part of society by big corporations.

    Community organizing is exactly what brought independence to America. . . Without Community organizing, there would never have been the Boston tea party.

    Without community organizing, we would ALL be dependent on either the very rich or a Communist government.

    You know that psychologist are in high demand in any city or neighborhoods with a large population of liberals and progressives. It's true. There has to be a pshcologist for every 25 people living in Beverly Hills and the L.A. West Side. :smile:

    Come to think of it, just about every person I know who works for the county (San Diego, Orange County, L.A,, San Berdoo) social services or the probation department all have degrees in psychology. I bet it's true with federal and state parole agents. Psychologist with guns. :smile:

    Re: Cezar Chevez is how I learned about who Saul Alinsky was and who community organizers / union organizers really were.

    I think it was in 1972 and three of my buddies and I were driving down old Hwy 99 in the central valley of California. We came upon a mini riot where patrol cars and farmers trucks were being rolled over. It was one of the many violent protest during the Delano grape strikes.

    We pulled over to see if the County Sheriff and the CHP needed any help.

    I noticed a black Ford sedan sitting about 50 yards away with two guys wearing black suits, white shirts, black ties and cheap black sun glasses. It's over a 100 degrees. So I walked over and struck up a conversation. Ends up they were the FBI and were just observing how Cezar Chevez does his community organizing. This is when they told me about some leftist dude who lives in Chicago, Saul Alinsky.

    Do you know the code word community organizers use for approving violence ? "peace" or "peacefully."

    Have you ever noticed that every time Obama or Al Sharpton have used the words "peacefully" or "peace" what followed ?

    Personally I think it is insane to ask that question? We get it you and other do not like Obama doesn't matter what he does it is wrong. Many Republicans drew their line in the sand. They were so pissed that an educated black man was elected president they couldn't believe it so he must be a socialist, commie, Muslim, who was born in Africa.

    Yes. . .too bad so many on the RIGHT are not smart enough to know that they don't know everything. . .especially NOT about themselves and their compulsive addiction to guns! They could certainly benefit from a psychologist!

    And. . .obviously, the police is not getting ENOUGH training in human sciences. . .it's clear to see when there are so many cases of Police violence, especially towards ONE section of the population AND so many killing of people with severe mental illness!
    One should wonder how many police officers would score on the MMPI test!

    You are so stuck in your old. . .very old, if you remember the 70's as I do, prejudices!

    I didn't expect more from you!

    As far as psychology being a pseudoscience is concerned, it's a fact that for most of it's history, psychology has been almost entirely pseudoscience (psychoanalysis, dream interpretation, the Rorschach test, the collective unconscious, recovered memories, etc.), but it's gradually becoming more scientific.

    Any current Republicans in Congress who voted against the lame duck Cromnibus spending bill might vote to impeach Obama.

    That would be under 30 - right?

    Those of us who don't have eidetic memories have a really hard time understanding what you're talking about when you don't quote the person to whom you're responding.

    If by "the picture" you mean that, by comparison, liberals make conservatives look like paragons of sanity, yes, I'm getting the picture.
