"You don’t say. I’m beginning to think Obama should just stop beating around the bush and declare the Ivy League Religious Institutions. The fervor and loyalty of their worshipers sometimes borderline fanatical. Imagine all these people who spend a lifetime worshiping at their altar, first doing whatever they can to become members of these institutions, then spreading their message(liberalism) far and wide, defending their perch atop the pantheon of elitism anytime they feel it’s under threat and giving generously to ensure their eternal glory. "
I think you’re the one who is obsessed with worshipping the Ivy League. Get real - 98% of people in this country never give one iota’s thought to the Ivy League, much less their policies and whether or not their kids are going to go there. If they think of it at all, it’s “the best school in the US - I guess that’s Harvard” the same way that “the best painting in the world - I guess that’s the Mona Lisa.” You are completely overstating the impact that the Ivy League has on this country and the “fervor” of worship. Have you been hanging around immigrant communities that (understandably) don’t know any better?
