Another group, Americans for Freedom of Information, have released copies of Obama's college transcripts from Occidental College. The transcript showed that Obama, under the name of Barry Soetoro, received financial aid as a foreign student from Indonesia as an undergraduate at the school. The transcript was given by Occidental College in compliance with a court order in a suit brought by a group in the Superior Court of California. The transcript states that "Obama (under the name of Soetoro) applied for financial aid and was awarded a fellowship for foreign students from the Fulbright Scholarship program. To qualify, a student must claim foreign citizenship.

Link, please! If true, this is dynamite, and I'm usually pretty cynical about the impact of political revelations.

This was an April Fool’s joke. I can’t quite decide if it keeps being reposted here by well-meaning but uninformed FReepers, or by people who want to muddy the waters. Probably a little of both.

But, no such thing has been released.

I don’t have a link to that. Maybe someone can Google it, or Pissant might have it...
