Opinion Makers

Regularly, celebrities voice their opinions on social and political issues. Movie stars, popular singers, and professional athletes tell us whom we should vote for, and what we should think about cultural questions. But who are these people? Why are they qualified to tell us what to think?

Well, let's look at some examples. Exactly how much education do these self-appointed "experts" have?

BARBARA STREISAND - no education after graduating from high school
CHER - finished 8th grade, never attended high school
MARTIN SHEEN - flunked entrance exam for Dayton University
JESSICA LANGE - attended college for the first week of her freshman year, but failed to finish a semester
ALEC BALDWIN - dropped out of college
JULIA ROBERTS - no education after graduating from high school
SEAN PENN - no education after graduating from high school
ED ASNER - no education after graduating from high school
MIKE FARRELL - no education after graduating from high school
GEORGE CLOONEY - dropped out of college
SUSAN SARANDON - B.A. in drama

Those listed above have not only told Americans what to think about politics and politicians, but have even ventured to call their political opponents "stupid"!
