Surprise surprise!!! When Rick Perry attended Texas A&M, most of his grades were Cs or Ds. His only two As came in World Military Systems and Improv Learning. It's not a surprise then that a darling of the Republican movement did not exactly excel while in college.
Many Republicans are vastly uninformed on the issues, believing ideas such as climate change is a hoax and being gay is a choice. They generally see academia as some kind of liberal elite and much of what is learned in universities is a hoax (even though much of what is done is universities drives human advancement forward). They mangle U.S. history (which Perry got a C in), and disregard facts. Perhaps they think facts are those pesky things that get in the way of a worldview. In any event, Perry's disregard for the truth makes it surprising he was even able to earn Cs at all, given that earning a C in a class requires one to at least show a very basic understanding of the material.
