I don’t agree. He either has a degree or he doesn’t. It was a lapse of judgement to have claimed otherwise.

I agree.

If he fudges this, what won’t he fudge?

I don’t agree. He either has a degree or he doesn’t. It was a lapse of judgement to have claimed otherwise.

I personally hold undergraduate and graduate degrees in biology, chemistry, biochemistry and Business Administration from esteemed nationally accredited public institutions.

I take no issue with Paul saying he has a degree in biology. He did not say that he has a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology.

A Doctor of Medicine may be freely interpreted as "a degree in biology" even as BS/MS/PhD degrees in zoology, biochemistry, microbiology, or biotechnology are degrees in biology.

For many MD's having a degree in biology was a pre-requisite for getting into med school (as it was for my dad) and for obtaining the higher degree, Doctor of Medicine, or MD. The study of biology is inextricably linked to the study of and ultimately the practice of medicine.

I'm a Cruz over Paul guy myself, but on this issue I wouldn't split hairs.

FReegards!

OK, Paul doesn’t have a degree in “Biology”. He has a degree in a biological field. I’m certain he doesn’t have a degree in “Women’s Studies”, either, but he undoubtedly has a good knowledge of the physiology of women.

We’re splitting hairs here.
