That comment is the epitome of ignorance. Leaders are born and then
developed. One has it or not. Education is not the critical factor. Ask
Bill Gates and Paul Allen.

There are people I would follow to the gates of hell, who barely
graduate from high school, and others I would not follow to the end of

Leadership is a quality that isn't developed in a classroom. It is
developed through practical application in real life situations.
