I want a woman as president. I have never made any bones about it. However, I find Clinton to be a mean spirited, and she surrounds herself with people that I would never shake hands with, because I refuse to shake political type's hands. I shook Wayne Morse's hand voluntarily because he was one of two people who voted against the Gulf of Tonkin resolution and I knew he was a crook. That is my only exception. Clinton will do nothing to end this war, she would use it to set herself up for a second term, she is part and parcel of the filth that has become american politics. I weep for my country.

But this "attack" is downright ridiculous. As a college professor myself, I can attest to the fact that the term has a double meaning. For years, prior to reaching the official "rank" of a full professor, I was often referred to as a "college professor" in a generic occupational sense. At my college, we have various ranks such as "instructor," "advanced instructor," "assistant professor," "associate professor," and "professor." But anyone who retains any of these ranks can certainly refer to themselves as performing the occupation of a professor - broadly defined. The Clinton folks must be paranoid about this because it demonstrates more of Obama's substantive experience and intellect. Hillary and her surrogates have often alleged that Obama has no "experience." This, of course, is a falsehood based on the ridiculous idea that "experience" begins and ends at the city limits of Washington, D.C. Indeed, Obama has a wealth of valuable and relevant experience - that includes working as a community organizer, civil rights attorney, best-selling author, state legislator, and yes - a distinguished professor of law.
