Sarah Steelman is a graduate of the University of Missouri and has a Masters of Arts degree in Economics. As well, she is now a teacher at Missouri State University where she teaches similar subject matter.
Now there is a debate in Missouri going on right now about whether or not Steelman has the substance required to serve as a member of the United States Senate after an interview conducted a few days ago on KMOX, where Mark Reardon concluded Steelman "isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer."
I find it interesting, based on Steelman's educational background and desire to create jobs and improve the economy, she can't even have an intelligent conversation on free trade to prove worthy knowledge to get past her basic talking points. See for yourself:
