Ben Sasse has five degrees from Ivy League institutions. Who cares.

I agree with this. Degrees do not necessarily indicate intelligence. There are many people who have fewer, or no degrees at all, who have a lot more common sense and practical knowledge than those who do have degrees.

Cruz and Bush are further examples.

Examples of people without common sense but with degrees?

Yeah I meant for them to be examples of your first sentence. I guess I didn't make that clear.

I see. And by "Bush", do you mean both George W. and Jeb? I think one could reasonably say that both lack common sense.

Hehe I meant George W. But sure, include Jeb if you wish.
