That is the media narrative. As a matter of fact, Hillary Clinton's supporters are in a majority of people that not only have degrees, but of those people who are working on PhD's and furthering their education, they are breaking for Hillary.

Then intermittently swallow, infinitesimal gulps of Syrup of Ipecac as you order your meal at the French Restaurant. You will be lauded as a natural French Speaker. And don't forget, as you sit at table, make sure you put your nose in the air like you just caught a whiff of something very pungent like Obama walking by with his wife. Then give everyone the stink-eye! You will be accepted in all French circles I can assure you. It worked for Josephine! Dawnelle,

I think he's got low energy and an attention problem. He's the absent-minded professor who always loses his paperwork, he's indecisive, bored by mundane details, restless for new things and performs inconsistently. I think Michelle Obama has been very helpful in organizing and motivating him. I'm sure he's super-intelligent and a nice man but I don't think (ego aside) that he's got what it takes to be president, it's a grueling job. In contrast, Hillary Clinton is super high-energy and sharp as a tack. The Obama in the HuffPo piece is the Obama that I see too. I think he’s got low energy and an attention problem.

What does this say about his preparation for the difficult office of president? (We cannot afford another lazy criminal/idiot like George W. Bush.) (I'm not saying that Obama has had an easy life, just that his political wins seem to have been easy, so maybe he expected this to be just one more.) Here's hoping that Hillary stays healthy and excited about her campaign, but maybe takes a quick break soon so she's ready for the next phase.
