Obama attended Harvard beginning in 1988. His first public office was as Senator in 1997.

Where the hell was this national news he was in from 88 through to 97?

He was president of the Law Review.

check out Google. There’s many, many references to a sort of anonymity of Obama when he attended Harvard.

Somebody paid for a Harvard degree for Obama is my true belief and has been for a few years. This episode with the celebrities buying and bribing college entrance reinforces my belief.

You may have the last word. I’ve said my piece.

1990 New York Times: First Black Elected to Head Harvard's Law Review

Obviously anyone going to Harvard Law School at the time would recall that sort of news and know exactly who they were referring to.

Something that is your personal belief without any evidence doesn't count for very much. The exact amounts that Obama and his wife had in student loans are a public record. I'm not going to look this up again right now, but I have before.

It's not that surprising that someone who had two parents who were Ph.D. candidates could do pretty well in school. By the way, at least in the first year of Harvard Law, all the classes involve exams where the teacher cannot see the name of the student until after they are graded. Obama graduated with Magna Cum Laude honors.

I think you may be getting confused with Columbia where Obama does seem to have had a small circle of acquaintances (which is not uncommon for a transfer student) but is nevertheless remembered by some people. Of course many thousands of people have tried to prove that he didn't even go there, but they have come up with a big nothing after years of effort, and Columbia does not deny that he was a student there.
