Just a thought. Wouldn't Jill Biden have made a kick ass Secretary of Education? You know that's true.
I have no doubt at all that she would be a much better one than Betsy DeVos. I doubt, though, that Biden would nominate his own wife to that position and thus open himself up to accusations of nepotism,
No precept or claim is more suspect or more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

Yeah, no doubt at all.
Religion is for people whose existential fear is greater than their common sense.

The god idea is popular with desperate people.

Her dissertation:

https://assets.documentcloud.org/docume ... tation.pdf

Just doing a quick spelling and grammar check:

slcoholism instead of alcoholism

clinicals instead of clinics

Out of 31,000 words that's not too shabby.

A few small typos in a dissertation are not necessarily a bad thing. They can help the candidate during defense by giving the review committee something to criticize. The advantage for the review committee is that they don't have to keep coming up with (mostly) irrelevant questions if there are no problems with the thesis. Any remaining allotted time can be spent correcting typos.

The EdD in ed leadership is a professional degree that usually doesn't require a full-blown dissertation. I haven't looked at it, but my guess is that this is a paper that's part of a final project or something. If that's the case, it'd be nothing like the dissertation required for a PhD.

A college professor with an earned doctorate should be using their title.

I wasn't suggesting that he would nominate her for the post.

We should put that so-called "Tucker Carlson" in touch with Dr. Daniel C. Peterson.
