In particular, I wonder how a mediocre high school student who went to a mediocre college in California was able to be admitted to Columbia University and then Harvard Law School.

Occidental College is hardly a mediocre college. It is one of the oldest and most respected liberal arts colleges on the west coast, if not the country. As for how Obama got into Occidental and Columbia and Harvard Law, well, what time frame are we talking about? The 1970's? Does the term 'affirmative action' ring any bells with you? At that time every college in the country was falling all over themselves in their haste to throw tuition aid to any remotely qualified black student in the country.

Barry almost certainly became an Indonesian citizen and probably got an Indonesian passport as a minor.

Under the Indonesian laws in place Obama was not and could not be a citizen.
