Full Version: How many former U.S. presidents have had PhDs?
Just wondering. Couldn't really find a website with any information on it.
Do your own homework.
Few?
After seeing that this information was easily attainable on Wikipedia, only Woodrow Wilson had one.

that book, still admired today as a study of lawmaking in the national U.S. government, was accepted as his dissertation, and he received the Ph.D. degree in political science from Johns Hopkins the following year. Wilson is the only U.S. president to hold a Ph.D.

There, a credible source.
That leads me to ask...which presidential candidates have one?
I was pretty sure it was Obama and Paul, who are coincidentally the best candidates in their parties.
Jillary has her J.D.
Kucinich has a B.A. and a M.A.
Edwards has a J.D.
Giuliani has a J.D.
Dodd has his J.D.
Usurper, sources? Mine have been wikipedia.

Doesn't Jimmy Carter have a PhD in nuclear physics?
J.D. and M.D. aren't research doctorates. They are considered inferior to Ph.D.s in matters that are relevant to both.
