"Reagan is rightfully seen nowadays as one of the best American Presidents"

sometimes, i think professors are idiots.

[to be continued]

the above quote is from my professor in my cold war class. after an entire semester, i've learned to tolerate his stupid opinionated lectures. he'll stand there and compliment reagan and bush senior while at the same time pointing out carter's inexperience with foreign policy, roosevelt's affair with another woman, etc etc.

the sad thing is that the thai students who take his class will probably only ever be taught american government and politics from this man. as if thai people weren't extremely conservative already. now, they're being taught what "most americans" believe in . . but not really.

i always become puzzled when professors are conservative. ive always had the notion that the more education you undergo, the more progressive you will be. i guess its a nice change. my cold war professor is getting his phd in economics and my cool ass british government professor is a sociologist by training and marxist by life.
