“It’s pathetic that without a job at a college, her only skill is to braid hair.”

That’s 99.999% of ALL College Grads these days! But! They can STILL grow up to be The President of the United States of America!

Seriously. She’ll be a Congress Critter soon enough. The female version of Senator Blutarski.

What a world! *Rolleyes*

Isn't that exploiting minorities for profit?

Should she not just donate her services?

Well, isn’t that special.....She is one shallow individual.. No more or less ridiculous than Bruce Jenner’s embarrassing posing as someone he is not.

Yes, she is equally qualified as any “studies” major to be President someday.
