Get over it Paul. Good grief, you don't get awarded Rhodes Scholarships
based on political connections. He was an excellent scholar by all
accounts, and earned his Rhodes Scholarhhip just like all others who are
awarded them. You just don't care for him, and can't him the least
credit for anything. Maybe you need to reflect on why that is.

I found it humorous that you show a link where the one requirement for the
scholarship is character when we are talking about Clinton.

"Got somebody to sponsor" .... errr...
"The *Rhodes Scholarship* is the world's oldest and arguably most
prestigious international fellowship
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fellowship>. The scholarships were
initiated after the death of Cecil John Rhodes
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cecil_John_Rhodes> and have been awarded
to applicants annually since 1902 by the Rhodes Trust
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhodes_Trust> in Oxford
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxford> on the basis of academic
qualities, as well as those of character. They provide the successful
candidate with two years of study at the University of Oxford
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Oxford> in England
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/England>, possibly extended for a third
year. "

He went to Georgetown on an academic scholarship until 1968, when he won
a
Rhodes Scholarship to Oxford University. He received his law degree from
Yale in 1973.

Clinton didn't have the money. He was smart enough to get somebody to
sponsor him for that scholarship when he was prime bait for the draft

board.

days before his draft board physical, he stopped all forms of personal
hygiene. The last 10 days, he ingested nothing but Vienna sausages and
Pepsi; and a week before his physical, he stopped using bathrooms
altogether, virtually living inside pants caked with his own
excrement, stained by his urine. That spectacle won Nugent a deferment,
