A really good Actor

Has anyone, other then me, noticed just how good an actor G.W. is? He was elected, in part, by telling the electorate that he was “just plain folks”. An lots of them bought it. I’d like to know how someone can be “just plain folks” with his background. He was born into a wealthy family. He brags about how a “C+” student can still succeed and yet he made it into Yale (which in the 60s was asking for 3.9 GPA and be in the upper percentages of the SAT/ACT) by a legacy admit ion. He also got into Harvard Law School, which is, if not the toughest, is one of the top five most exclusive schools in the country. Finally he was able to get into the National Guard during a time that every open slot had several hundred applications.

“just plain folks” NOT
