    I think you might be in the wrong sub-forum. Opinions and Beliefs are down the hall and to the left.

    He got in as a legacy student,his father attended there before him.Jared Kushner got into Harvard because his father made a huge contribution to the school,he definitely did not have the high school grades to get in.

    Bush was a pilot and less than 1% of the population can actually apply, get accepted and pass through the rigorous course, not to mention the flight physicals and extraordinary amount of mental stress that endures. Even after making it through, you can get grounded for all kinds of reasons, it happens to a lot of good men.

    So yea, his SAT's, ATC's and other scores were probably high enough to get in, especially since his Dad went there and if qualified, he would get accepted almost immediately.

    Not sure but it is safe to say it wasn't under Harvard's Kenyan foreign exchange program. :roflol:

    I still don't care. Maybe if I was a student in the same class has one of these people and I do about it then I might care. But those schools cost way too much money for me why isn't that talked about? How is it they can price 99% of the population out of attending the school and suddenly it's a problem when someone buys their way in. That's the whole point.

    I actually write pretty good jokes.

    How about this one???

    Stormy Daniels said sex with Trump was exactly like getting her blood drawn.

    All she felt was a little poke.

    Then she barely felt a thing

    And it was over before she knew it...

    And then Avenatti REALLY made her moan. A screwing the likes she never had before. Now in her line of work, that's saying something.

    Maybe if they quit giving free college to illegal immigrants then real Americans wouldn't have to spend half a million dollars to get their little girls into college.

    That's not why college is expensive at all. A simple google search and ignoring the right wing, xenophobic results will get you much closer to the real reasons why college is expensive.

    Do you think Obama got to where he is without affirmative action? Not a chance. He could never stand in his own merit. He’s the poster child for affirmative action.

    annnnnnnnnnnd right over his head, as usual. YOU still have pass through the rigorous course, not to mention the flight physicals and extraordinary amount of mental stress that endures. Regardless of anything else, even if they let you in the program.

    Worked for Elizabeth Warren who lied to get her 400K a year from Harvard. They don't seem to really vet very well. All you have to do is make the claim and you are in.

    Perhaps you think Kushners high school grades were faked? He was on the honor roll.
