Encouraged by Fox News host Megyn Kelly, Governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin mocked former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for her Ivy League degree in remarks posted to Kelly’s Facebook page.
“You know,” Kelly told Walker after he brough up Clinton, “she went to Yale.”
Walker laughed. “All the more reason to put someone in who’s a fighter, not just an Ivy Leaguer. Someone who’s a fighter.”
Kelly replied with a chuckle, “As I say about my own Syracuse undergrad and Albany law school education, you know, we can see items clearly because we don’t have all that ivy in our eyes.”
“I think there’s a lot of Americans who have looked at some of the leaders we’ve had over the last few years who’ve come out of those Ivy League schools and said, ‘Maybe it’s time we got people who are in touch with people all across the rest of the America,'” Walker replied.
Walker, a probable 2016 Republican presidential candidate, has recently been criticized in some liberal circles for never having obtained an undergraduate college degree.
Clinton, a probable 2016 Democratic presidential candidate, has an undergrad degree from Wellesley and a law degree from Yale.
