Why college just doesn't work

Got this in email today.

In a Seattle Washington college classroom, they were discussing the
qualifications to be President of the United States. It was pretty simple - the candidate must be a natural born citizen of at
least 35 years of age.

However, one girl in the class immediately started in on how unfair was the
requirement to be a natural born citizen...
In short, her opinion was that this requirement prevented many capable
individuals from becoming president. The class was taking it in and letting
her rant, but everyone's jaw hit the floor when she wrapped up her argument
by stating, 'What makes a natural born citizen any more qualified
to lead this country than one born by C-section?'

Yep, these are the 18 year olds that just voted for the President of the United
States.

Can we let them drink at 18 and vote at 21? No, I guess that doesn't work
either.

That is part of the reason to go to college, to learn! I bet she will never make that mistake again. Its amazing how some Freshman can get into school without some inkling of how the world works but I guess that is why they are the targets of fraud and loansharks too.
