Of course, those (of you) with an unreasoning, viceral, unthinking hatred of the little tin god will never accept any type of "proof" whatsoever of his educational background or accomplishments in that regard.
However, as I stated before....while he may be better educated than Ms. Palin, it is completely irrelevant.
As Pap used to say, "Book learnin' might prove yer educated; it sure as hell don't prove yer smart!"
Pap knew whereof he spoke!
Occidental College, 2 years, no degree
College spokesman Jim Tranquada said privacy rules forbid releasing grades, but that Obama left in good standing.
Columbia University
Bachelors Degree in International Relations
Graduated in 1983
Obama attended Columbia School of General Studies. If a General Studies student completes enough courses, and/or has other credits from elsewhere accepted, a student can receive a degree. People confuse Columbia University, Columbia College, and Columbia General Studies. A big university system has many different schools and colleges attached.

He supposedly received his Juris Doctor law degree, magna cum laude -- though there are no records available to validate this assertion

My alleged "hatred" of the poe is NOT unreasoning or unthinking -- and assuming you meant visceral -- it may very well be based on instinct rather than intellect, if indeed intellect is what produces the fawning reports of his superior intelligence and oratory skills. Observing the systematic, complete and utter destruction of our country provides all the reasoning and thinking I need in which to base my opinions.
It is a fallacy to state that some will never accept proof of his educational background and/or accomplishments. However, your any type of "proof" will not fly. The fact that someone, somewhere, at some point in time said he was a genius, or has degrees from x, y and z, hardly qualifies as proof. SHOW ME the transcripts...the diplomas...the actual long form birth certificate.
Pap sounds like a brilliant man schooled in the REAL world.
