It’s been nearly a week since theWall Street Journalran an op-ed calling out first lady-to-beDr.
Jill Bidenfor using the “Dr.” honorific.
One of the things I’m most proud of is my doctorate," she said (viaYouTube).
“She had two masters degrees…
I said Jill, why don’t you get a doctorate and make us some money.
She gets the doctorate and gets a $2,000 raise,” Biden joked.
“But look at all those people that came out in support of me.
I am so grateful.
I was just overwhelmed by how gracious people were toward me,” she said.
We’re doubted by those who choose the weakness of ridicule over the strength of respect.
Is this really the example we want to set for the next generation?"
She is an inspiration to me, to her students, and to Americans across this country.
This story would never have been written about a man."
But for every critic, there are voices of support.
in Educational Leadership: @DrBiden, Class of 2006.
