Is anybody making the ridiculous claim that GWB "made it on
his own?" He wouldn't have gotten any of those jobs without
parental influence...and he certainly wouldn't have gotten into
the Texas Air Guard.


Parents can not get you your BA or BS degree.

They cant get you thru UPT

They cant get thru F-102 training.

Parents cant make you excel at pilot training and ACM.

They also cant get you your MBA.

Nor do parents just give you leadership.

He has accomplished far more than most people, and while connections may help
open the door, they do not get your thru or guarantee success. If a Democrat
or Green had done many of the things he has, they would be trumpeting those
accomplishments left and right.
