"I Have A Master's Degree In Communication!"

Even if you don't like Rachael Maddow (I hear some don't) this clip from her show was wild. A candidate getting pretty wrapped up in the emotion of the moment, announcing his bid for country treasurer:

Sorry, but I’m not into any candidate that has/shows that much emotion and yet has to read every sentence of how they feel from a sheet of paper on a podium.
To me, regardless of the emotion/passion, it reeks of insincerity.

Reminds me of someone doing a first time reading for a play or movie role.

I'm almost feeling like an ass for posting that. Kinda like making fun of retarded people. The guy has got some kind of troubles going on.

It is hard to not watch though, it being such a blatant example of political posturing.

What an idiot, he's giving the rest of us with M.A. COM degrees a really REALLY bad name. Someone should tell him the University of Pheonix doesn't count.

This could be an example of shooting fish in a barrel.

How does that differ from a journalism degree, with regard to career opportunities (or are you planning on doing something outside of "media")?
