It's mainly my charm, brilliance and humble attitude which explain why people should listen to me though.

Oh, are we also doing stuff like working on campaigns? Because I've done that a bit. I've met and spoken to several leading politicians in Sweden. I'm not sure any of that is much in terms of credentials though.

Political Science and Latin American Studies major (though I had to drop the second one when I transferred, unfortunately). Campaigned for Obama in three states. Campaigned for Cedric Richmond in '08 as well. Was set to be the field director for a (Republican) State Senate candidate but decided against it when I realized it didn't pay nearly enough compared to the normal job I'd have to quit to do it. Had the Georgia General Assembly pass a resolution in my honor, though I didn't find out until a year afterwards.

Nonpolitical achievements? I was my fraternity's treasurer for a year. 2230 on the SAT though that's probably average for this forum. I gave a speech at my graduation. Voted most likely to succeed. A bunch of other high school awards and such.

You guys are too smart and make me feel like a dumb. That is all I have to say in response to this thread.

J. J.'s posts in this thread are so adorable.



Merely stating the truth.  I actually plan it that way.  The more you dig, the better I look.

BTW:  The Tripoli victory parade you were planning to attend today has been canceled.

Several years of history and social services education that probably won't get me a job and  political experience working for local Gadsden-wavers. Oh and I've wasted years of my life looking things up independently. Does that meet your standards?

Well, I don't know who you are but at a glance at just this one post one can tell you have mastered grammar, contextualization, humility, social skill, wit and charm.  And keep in mind most of the supposedly well educated trumpeting themselves above are great fools and dupes.

I'm a History and Politics honours graduate with almost five years of experience in the civil service assisting victims of crime.

Politically, I am a member of the Scottish Conservatives and have stood as a council candidate in elections in 2007, polling 16.2% in a 6 candidate race. I was defeated on the 6th count. I am scheduled to be standing again in 2012. I have campaigned in Scottish elections in both 2007 and 2011 and am an active member of LGBTory.

I am a registered and active member of the Public and Commerical Services Union and may be nominated shortly as a 'shop steward.'

If you didn't inhale, then you have almost presidential, and thus appropriate for this political site, credentials.

If you did inhale, well... you're right.

I would estimate that a not-insignificant portion of this forum posts while under the influence of cannabis. And/or cat drugs.

I recently started volunteering for the Montgomery County GOP and write an article for a certain conservative website (which I won't list for the sake of staying anonymous). Therefore, I have absolutely no credibility. Smiley
