Third grade... Alright, whatever. Who gives a fuck? But if you don't have your shit together by college, you should get out of academia and figure out a different career path. Yes, I know there are exceptions, but those are anecdotal outliers. As far as I'm concerned, this proves Joe was never bright. So basically, a man who was never bright to begin with and now has cognitive decline, beat out an entire field of candidates to become the DNC's nominee. This is the party of elected officials who humble brag that they alienate voters with their intelligence. No, no, you don't. You're mostly a bunch of dumbasses with the occasional villainous mastermind thrown in to keep things interesting.

True, but even the third grade thing is kinda weird. Makes me think he was a slow kid. I don't want some middling-intellect normal "Joe" in the white house unless they ended up accomplishing something fantastic, or ran a successful business.

My daughter had bad grades from 1st to 4th. We held her back and her grades have been A's & B's since then.

I believe it was because she was always the youngest in her class. Making her the oldest gave her more confidence.

I remember the kid that got held back - it was always a stigma and it never went well from what I experienced.

I've received full scholarships for my last two degrees and am quite successful academically and professionally, but... as a kid, my grades sucked for a few years. I had a 'behavior disorder' (I didn't feel like doing everything last thing my socialist weasel teachers told me to).
