That shows up in the fact that almost all our lawyers of POTUS, SCOTUS and COTUS are ignorant of science and math and cannot think like a scientist. Breyer is one of the very few exceptions.<br /><br />Pre-med students are about as bad, but they do take Baby Math and Baby Science in college and, of course, many go on to excel in biology and chemistry.jimbinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09684677214800358793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7911788560018241640.post-28907099803273645212009-10-22T15:33:23.509-04:002009-10-22T15:33:23.509-04:00Think what you will of his other pursuits, but Ric...Think what you will of his other pursuits, but Richard Nixon was significantly better than average law student; he graduated #2 in his class from Duke.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7911788560018241640.post-62773502539763783982009-10-21T22:06:58.373-04:002009-10-21T22:06:58.373-04:00I chuckled. good post.
