2. Bush/Gore Grades and SAT Scores (posted March 23, 2000)
(Updated June 17, 2005)
Confidential college transcripts and test scores obtained by the Washington Post reveal that neither presidential candidate, George W. Bush nor Al Gore, were shining students during their college days at Yale and Harvard, respectively. Although each earned respectable scores on the SAT college admissions test (a total of 1355 of 1600 for Gore and 1206 for Bush), neither did that well in their college courses. Both earned a mix of B and C grades. Gore's lowest grade of D came in a natural sciences course, while his top grades were an A in French and English, an A in Visual and Environmental Studies, and an A- in Social Relations. Bush's lowest marks were a 70 (of 100) in Sociology and a 71 in Economics, while his highest scores were High Passes in History and Japanese.
In 2005, the Boston Globe obtained comparable information on John Kerry's undergraduate record at Yale. It shows that Kerry had a cumulate grade average of 76 over
four years in school. His freshman year average was 71 and his senior year average was 81.

3. I agree with that. However, its not that he used executive privilege, its how he used it in this case. he could have protected those docs at anytime over the last year, but didn't do so until holder begged him to (after being told he wouldn't get the investigation dropped by the committee chair).
4. I wouldn't mind seeing Romney's transcripts.. why not? It's not really the grades I care about.
