Harvard

I get so amazed when I realize people who behave like dolts went to Harvard.
I can understand most people who have gone there are wondrous thinkers.
Others, well, perhaps they were accepted as legacies- like Geaorge W. Bush at Yale. Those sorts
of pedigrees hurt the country way more than Affirmative Action ever could.
Case in point- George W. Bush.
How many women and children did get killed in his bloody war, the war he based on so many lies?
One of the Charlie Hebdo killers invoked the horror of Iraq in his killing spree- though he himself
was killing civilians too. Did he learn from ISIL or from Bush and Chaney? Is a killer just a killer,
and the one who kills more efficiently has ideals which last and spread more easily?
I hope not. I want to believe American ideals are plentiful enough in the "humanity and humanities"
column to be worthy of lasting and sharing.
But Harvard really ought to look more diligently for people who don't just know a lot about the world, and have access to a lot about the world; but have a gifted and sacred way of interpreting
the world.
Knowledge is the lowest level of the intellectual spectrum.
Interpretation is key to mastering life and liberty in a various world.
I know perfectly well what Einstein's formula is for his theory of relativity. It is E=mc(squared).
Can I interpret it? Barely?
Mathematically interpret it?
Not at all.
If I could interpret it, would I want to do so, be able to do so, in a way which would enhance
humanity? I can only hope so. One doesn't have to be a saint in order to avoid  massive evils.
If Harvard continues unleash Mitt Romneys and Ted Cruzes on our population, where are the
truly brilliant people the 'premier' institution leaves behind?
Who is having more influence in the world's human history right now? George Bush, or
Saddam Hussein?
I believe it's more and more a toss-up each day.
And sadly, we have dolts from Harvard wanting to continue in a "Yalie" legacy.
I give Harvard a bit of a pass for giving us Presidents Carter and Obama.
The world is a much better place because of the leadership we've gotten from these two men.
But now take Lawrence O'Donnell and Alan Dershowitz? O'Donnell is a genius.
The latter may have deserved a look when he applied to get in; however, why would thinking
people admit him, knowing he'd also want to leave in their names? All I can figure is that Dershowitz must also believe 'blood diamonds' were  perfectly fine to begin and to continue in our lives if he
thinks France "deserves" terrorism.
Harvard! Get it together. Your slip is showing. These DOLTS are contemporaries.
