Yup. That’s EXACTLY it. Someone forwarded it to my FB account on Saturday. Probably is false because in 1981 Barry was at Occidental.

Can anyone lay their hands on a valid Columbia student ID? Any Columbia alumni Freepers out there? That would go a long way toward answering real/faked...

This one?

A few questions/observations about that picture:
1. Obama's hair looks shorter in that picture than in any other pictures I've seen of him in college. Looks older, too. As though it is a post-college photo inserted into someone else's ID.
2. Did Columbia use this sort of ID in 1981? With a bar code?
3. Does/did Columbia note which students were "Foreign Students" on their university-issued IDs? I've never heard of any university doing so. Visiting students, yes, but not foreign students.

I would say fake (even though I believe it’s accurate). The picture is too nice for a quick-shot ID card.

I also believe that things like this are being released by the Administration itself, so that they can be discredited later on.
