There have been seven Democratic presidents since 1900. Of these seven, went to law school, but only one (Clinton), graduated. Interestingly enough, three are actually members of a state bar (Wilson, FDR, and Clinton). Of the fourth president who attended law school (Truman), he actually never received a bachelor's degree. So USF law crowd, harboring any political ambitions? Just look at the list below. It, clearly, does not take a law school degree to become president. By those standards, you're overachieving. I mean, come on law school students, you must be able to do better than an MBA grad.
