Transcript: Al Gore Got ‘D’ in ‘Natural Sciences’ at Harvard
Cybercast News Service ^ | 5/24/11

Posted on 05/24/2011 10:43:30 AM PDT by markomalley

In his commencement speech at Hamilton College on Sunday, former Vice President Al Gore told the graduates that global warming is “the most serious challenge our civilization has ever faced.” But as an undergraduate at Harvard University in the late 1960s, Gore--one of the most prominent spokesmen on climate change today--earned a “D” in Natural Sciences.

Gore’s transcript documents that during his sophomore year at Harvard he earned a "D" in Natural Sciences 6 (Man’s Place in Nature). Also, as a senior at Harvard, he earned a C-plus in Natural Sciences 118.

Gore, along with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2007 for his work on global warming.

Gore got a 'D' in 'Natural Sciences' at Harvard

That means he'll fit in just fine with the rest of the global warming professors.

This is what a 'D' from Harvard will get you.

In 2000, when discussing the candidates with a hardcore feminazi, I brought up Algore’s economic failings.

She didn’t care one bit, because Algore “was on the right side of the issues”, by which she meant he was pro-abortion. He also had the “ruling class mindset”, so that countered any actual lack of merit.

We see this with ‘bammers as well. Since he has the ruling class mindset, he is superior, regardless of evidence to the contrary.

He DID get an A+ in “Unnatural” Science. I think he went on for a Ph.D. in Historical Pseudoclimatology.

It sounds like it was one of those bird courses that they don’t let science majors take. The ones where no scary math is involved.

For all of Gore's later fascination with science and technology, he often struggled academically in those subjects. The political champion of the natural world received that sophomore D in Natural Sciences 6 (Man's Place in Nature) and then got a C-plus in Natural Sciences 118 his senior year. The self-proclaimed inventor of the Internet avoided all courses in mathematics and logic throughout college, despite his outstanding score on the math portion of the SAT. As was the case with many of his classmates, his high school math grades had dropped from A's to C's as he advanced from trigonometry to calculus in his senior year.

When John C. Davis, a retired teacher and assistant headmaster at St. Albans, was recently shown his illustrious former pupil's college board achievement test scores, he inspected them closely with a magnifier and shook his head, chuckling quietly at the science results.

"Four eighty-eight! Terrible" Davis declared upon inspecting the future vice president's 488 score (out of a possible 800) in physics.

"Hmmmm. Chemistry. Five-nineteen. He didn't do too well in chemistry."

Glad to see that the ManBearPig is making progress.

He now gets an F (absolute zero) in Natural Science.

Al Gore, the anti-intellectual.

But he got an A in Elmer Gantry Screaming and Sweating 101. He also did very well in Advamced Snake Oil Salesman.

Plus, as a woman, my take is that he wouldn’t ever come close to an A or a B in sex. C minus maybe...YUCK!
