what was your major?



The problem with politics is that it's filled with Politicians.  It's a circle of life.  All the politicians out there act a certain way because that's how they were taught to act.  

But don't worry, the system will come crashing down when I'm elected president.



My major?  Architectural Engineering.

When you think about it, an Architectural Engineer is more suited to have the responsibilities of a political role anyday.

Lol, that was me 5 years ago... I still love my IR degree, but it's not doing me much good. I miss the study though, and I think I'll be a failure if I die without my PhD in the field... but I'm saving that for retirement lol.

Any Chance you'll be at the con?

lol Sikboy...Well it is true...The field is so competitive that one needs at a mininum a MA in IR to be sucessful...Its a tough ball game...I have been President of my campus's College Republican Chapter for two years now...In that time I have a formal relationship with the Governor, and many state Congressmen on first name basis...I've also had the chance to meet the President...I've done travel all over the East Coast for meetings and conventions...It's a great field, and there is a lot to see, a lot of people to meet, and a lot of opportunity to jump on....Problem is, atleast in my opinion is that the field is full of the most ambitious/competitive people who will two face their mothers for personal gain...

So Sik, what do you do for a living?  Maybe check out the CIA or NSA website...I see they have ton's of jobs with IR as a pre-req...(but you cant have smoked pot-dough)

Oh, and don't assume that I haven't studied Foreign Politics and Government.  How do you think I came up with those conclusions?

I'm a law student... I was about the only guy who didn't go to law school after graduation... I waited two years. I was going to go to UMD for my PhD but grew tired of being poor. So I sold out and went after my JD.

I spent 8 years in the Navy (5 active, 3 reserves) as a CTI, so I worked pretty closely with the NSA. In fact my ex-wife went from the AF to the NSA then to a contractor supporting the CIA. I wasn't at all impressed by the NSA at the time (though they have a cool MA program at the war college). At some point I just decided I didn't want to work for the Government any longer.

Oh, and you CAN smoke a ton of Pot, you just can't lie about it during your security interview.

Also, with about 45 minutes worth of studying, I friggin spanked that test.  Steel and Wood design and analysis can blow me!



IS PSU is that Plymouth State College?  NH. if so I'm class of '89 and was on the sailing team at it's inception. I helped to buyt he first two boats.
