.... a law degree does not a lawyer make.

The Mitt has a joint law/MBA degree from Havard. I don't think he is a member of a bar, nor ever practiced as a lawyer.

A fine distinction maybe. I have a degree in electrical engineering, and worked 40 years in the field, but in most states I cannot call myself a (professional) Engineer without a license.

Just sayin' for accuracy.
