I agree with the writer as well.

After Bakke, universities were looking for all kinds of loopholes to admit minorities on other criteria besides race. This gave a huge advantage to minorities and even whites of African (South Africa, Rhodesia at the time) and South American (Argentina, e.g.) heritage.

A half black man from HI wasn’t going to get special treatment, but mention Kenya and voila, the university has its loophole. Indonesia was probably icing on the cake.

I don’t fault Obama for gaming the system (the system was flawed in the first place), but I do fault the fact that he has never come clean about it. But keeping it all shrouded in mystery and speculation is a political ploy which provides distraction and tinfoil hat theories.

The Clintons had the best investigative team going and if they couldn’t find anything of substance to hang around Obama’s neck, there wasn’t anything to find, IMO.

Would the clintoons back off if enough money was offered? The one had plenty of money to buy silence. This never happens in politics (money), or was something discovered on the clintoons which bought silence? Don't know here. Many questions.

More like a sinkhole.

The university would have to comply with numerous immigration regulations and file all kinds of documents in order to admit a foreign student. The university would also have to be responsible for the student while he was in the U.S. and make sure that the student has the required visa and paperwork to study here.

Why would Occidental College go through all of this, just to get around the Bakke decision?

You don’t fault Obama for lying about his birthplace to get into college? (And wasn’t he supposedly a British subject at birth anyway?)

Film producer Bettina Viviano says she heard Bill Clinton say he knew that Obama was not eligible. Top democrats told her and Michele Thomas that Bill and Hillary were planning to reveal Obama’s ineligibility but were scared away by the critically-timed deaths of Bill’s good friend (and Arkansas Democrat Party chair) Bill Gwatney and Rep Stephanie Tubbs - both of whom had agreed to actually present the petition at the Dem National Convention and died within 2 weeks of the convention.

IOW, Bill and Hillary DID have the goods on Obama. But the Soros-Obama machine threatened them into silence.

If the Clintons had found this, that he committed fraud to get into the best schools, at the time of the election, this would have been enough to have derailed his campaign. The reason that the Clintons did not derail his campaign are likely because of behind the scene finagling and possibly their own skeletons being put on the table to "encourage" them into compliance.
