How many major figures in modern politics hold NO degrees? |
|
From what I understand, Rove and Carville never finished college. Anyone else not finish college and become a MODERN mover-and-shaker?

5. Current president of Korea is a high school grad but |
|
self-taught human rights lawyer. Very cool guy. The conservative really don't like him & are doing their best to recall him.

18. yeah, i find it hard to believe that he actually went to classes |
|
or learned anything for that matter. Sure, he's got a degree, but it doesn't mean anything.

He isn't in politics as such, but he's damn sure a mover & shaker.

12. Carville has undergrad and Law degrees from LSU |
|
"He entered Louisiana State University in 1962 and, as his biographical sketch notes with the comment "not to put a spin on it", "flunked out four years later." He subsequently returned to Louisiana State-after two years in the Marine Corps that his resumé says was "to assuage his Catholic guilt"-and later earned a law degree from LSU."

16. Current Tory leader has just named Major |
|
as one of 4 'Wise old men' to occasionally speak for the Tories, so he is still sort of current. Also James Callaghan, PM 1976-79. Left school at age 14.
