I was surprised to learn he had a Harvard Law Degree
Most overrated school in the history of schools.
How do you know that Harvard is the world's greatest school? Ask a Harvard grad, for sure.
I learned early on (in my first semester at Alabama, in fact*) that Harvard is full of self-bloviating windbags. All reputation, little delivery.
* Not to hijack, but the specific issue was Harvard professor Adam Ulam's ludicrous opinion that the United States was to blame for the Cold War, a demonstrably ludicrous, insane assertion. So crazy, only a Harvard professor could make it without being laughed out of polite company. That was a valuable early lesson I learned in the early days of my time at the University of Alabama, something for which I will be eternally grateful: not everything from Harvard is good. In fact, some of it can only be characterized as bovine scatology. Thank you alma mater.
