The FBI certainly would have turned that up during their clearance work on him

The FBI NEVER performed a background investigation (BI) of Obama, and they NEVER issued Obama any clearance.

The job of vetting candidates falls to the press, that unfortunately acted as Obama's cheer leaders instead.

The fact that there is no security clearance is a piece of information that the Lincoln Journal Star refused to print in a letter to the editor that I submitted. They would give me 200 words to correct all the media’s disinformation over 2 years’ time, and they wouldn’t include that fact because it was too “confusing” to them. All they were willing to print was my support for Nebraska’s eligibility bill; no facts allowed.

Tells you where we’re at and exactly how we got here.
