Harvard will give someone the education needed to hopefully make educated decisions at a later time. It also allows them to seek professional careers, depending on the courses offered. Personally, I would vote for someone even if they had a degree from a state university as long as they are honest, sincere, and trustworthy. True leaders need to be these three things.

If Obama fails, then it will be another election that the public is hoodwinked by a smooth talking candidate. With the "ability to inspire" comes the "ability to deceive". History has shown that with the leaders I mentioned earlier. It's not like it's the first time it has happened, but voters seem to not learn the lessons from previous elections.
