Remember Campaign 2004, when all we heard was how smart John Kerry was and how dumb President Bush was (and still is, to those same critics). Well it turns out Kerry's grades were, well heck, just see what AP wrote (from CBS 2 Chicago):
Kerry’s grade average at Yale University was virtually identical to President Bush’s record there, despite repeated portrayals of Kerry as the more intellectual candidate during the 2004 presidential campaign.Kerry had a cumulative average of 76 and got four Ds his freshman year—in geology, two history courses and political science, The Boston Globe reported Tuesday.
It goes on:
“I always told my dad that D stood for distinction,” Kerry said in a written response to reporters’ questions.
Written response. During the Democratic National Convention, all we heard was about how brave Kerry was?
How about "D" for dodging reporters.
