Who is the only US President to have a PhD degree?

Thomas Woodrow Wilson ( born December 28, 1856 – died February 3, 1924) was an American politician and academic who served as the 28th President of the United States from 1913 to 1921. Born in Staunton, Virginia, he spent his early years in Augusta, Georgia and Columbia, South Carolina. Wilson earned a PhD in political science, working as a professor and scholar at various institutions before being chosen as President of Princeton University, a position he held from 1902 to 1910.

Today he is the only US president to have a PhD degree.

He was also husband to the first female president: When President Wilson suffered his second serious stroke in October 1919, Edith masked the severity of his illness, making decisions in his stead and becoming, undercover, what some historians term America's first female president. Wilson made a partial recovery but spent his remaining years seriously disabled. Also, unfortunately, he was pretty racist being from the south and seeing the aftermath of the civil war.

"Today he is the only US president to have a PhD degree" Uh...how about "Up until today he is the only US President to have earned a PhD"

Bob Alexander, Wilson, most damaging President, more damaging than FDR or BHO.

Carroll Price this book is a conspiracy theorist bible. Are you really going to put your reputation on this book?

A highly educated fool, who sold his country's wealth and future to the Rothschild banking cartel of Holland. For the secretive, sordid tale of how it happened, read The Creature From Jykle Island by Edward Griffin.
