Fun fact: lapid does not have a bachelor's degree.
- beckman466 5y ago> Fun fact: lapid does not have a bachelor's degree. Genuine question: why is having a bachelor's degree important?
- yuvalkarmi 5y agoLapid is the alternate prime minister, and the significance is that (correct me if I’m wrong) it’s fairly uncommon for people in political power positions not to have higher education of some sort.
- redisman 5y agoIsn’t that part of the problem. It’s become a political class rather than pulling the best representatives of all facets of society.
- dilawar 5y agoOur (Indian) PM just just faked it! He got a degree printed in a subject that didnt exist, and when the degrees written by hand and in a font that was invented in this century. Not sure if Israelians tolerate white lies from their politicians as we do.

- jeanlucas 5y agoThis is a fun fact, actually. Most politicians, even in 3rd world countries like mine, have at least one degree. In rare cases they don't, they get honorary phds in politics and/or sociology.
- Torwald 5y ago> Most politicians, even in 3rd world countries like mine, have at least one degree. Much better than in my country, Germany, where we get regularly news of diploma forgery from top politicians. (eg. Baerbock, von Guttenberg)
- yyyk 5y agoIIRC, Lapid dropped out of high school.
