In a recent interview, a well-known professor who taught at Columbia University for 46 years questioned whether or not President Obama actually attended the Ivy League school.
Prominent Columbia professor Henry Graff says he isn’t sure President Obama ever attended the Ivy League school.
“I taught every significant politician that ever studied at Columbia,” said Columbia Emeritus Professor of History Henry Graff, in an interview last week with Wayne Root, a contributor at The Blaze. “Between American History and Diplomatic History, one way or another, they all had to come through my classes.”
“Not Obama,” he continued. “I never had a student with that name in any of my classes. I never met him, never saw him, never heard of him.”
Graff alleged that “none of the other Columbia professors knew him either” and said he is “very upset” to hear Obama referred to as a graduate of Columbia University.
“I am angry when I hear Obama called ‘the first President of the United States from Columbia University,’” he said. “I don’t consider him a Columbia student. I have no idea what he did on the Columbia campus. No one knows him.”
Graff is the recipient of the Kaul Foundation Award of Excellence in the field of education, an honor that is tied to a prize of $100,000. He is the author of multiple books and is known for teaching the first course on the history of the Presidency.

Thank you very much and God bless you.
Didn’t his classmates come forward? 😂😂😂😂😂👍
Rocks will cry out.
I never heard any classmates nor teachers come forward. The only one who came forward was his Kenyan grandmother who claimed Barry was born in a hospital in Mombasa until they shut her up.
We have been told that Obama went to Occidental College, Columbia, and then Harvard Law.
Have we ever seen transcripts or diplomas? It should be fairly easy to document his educational record.
We need to know the Truth.
I suspect Zero revels in the fact that he’s got away with it at the expense of “whitey.” I’m sure he enjoyed Biden being such an idiot. There’s just this seething and cynical hatred in him for everything that is the America which elected him.
The man is an incomprehensible cipher. One wonders what Frank Marshall Davis really taught him.
Some quotes from behind the paywall for those who want more details:
“in the early 1980s, Obama was part of a secret CIA project to explore Mars.
The future president teleported there, along with the future head of Darpa.
That’s the assertion, at least, of a pair of self-proclaimed time-traveling, universe-exploring government agents.
Andrew D. Basiago and William Stillings insist that they once served as “chrononauts” at Darpa’s behest, traversing the boundaries of time and space. They swear: A youthful Barack Obama was one of them.
According to Basiago and Stillings, Obama isn’t just lying about his identity. He’s lying about his military service record, too. While his political opponents in 2008 attacked him for never serving, in truth, he was concealing his participation in a hidden CIA intergalactic program hosted at a California community college in 1980.
Between 1981 and 1983, Obama is supposed to have visited Mars twice, by way of a teleportation chamber called a “jump room.” Basiago, a fellow chrononaut, told the website Exopolitics that he saw Obama “walk back to the jump room from across the Martian terrain.” To acknowledge his comrade, Obama is said to have told Basiago, “We’re here” – apparently, “with some sense of fatalism.””
Was he using the name Soetero back then?
i have a friend who worked at Occidental. said his records
were off-limits at the time. don’t now about now.
Agree that Obama did not attend columbia college.
Rather he attended the non ivy league columbia dept called the School of General Studies. Anyone can get into that dept.
I did. I was in the School of General Studies and graduated in 1986.
Obama was known by the GS students that I ran with. We gave a reading of prose and poetry in the Jazz room of the West End on 114 & Broadway somewhere about 1981 plus or minus. Several who were there say that Obama was there. I recall a black guy with a white girl there. He left after I read. Likely because what I said pissed him off.
Most of my poetry was as bad as Obama’s stuff. But a few of my poems are world class. These were always the ones that I worked on for several years.
Of course he attended Columbia. He was just with the foreign student coterie.
For those who have six hours to spare enjoy:

If anyone should have questions about Obama’s record at Columbia University, it’s me. We both graduated (according to Obama) Columbia University, Class of ’83. We were both (according to Obama) Pre-Law and Political Science majors. And I thought I knew most everyone at Columbia. I certainly thought I’d heard of all of my fellow Political Science majors. But not Obama (or as he was known then- Barry Soetoro). I never met him. Never saw him. Never even heard of him. And none of the classmates that I knew at Columbia has ever met him, saw him, or heard of him.But don’t take my word for it. The Wall Street Journal reported in 2008 that Fox News randomly called 400 of our Columbia classmates and never found one who had ever met Obama.

Still waiting for the birth certificate to surface, not the fake 8-layered PDF one.
Aren’t there two Columbia schools there, one Columbia College and one Columbia University ?
—teleportation— ???!!!???

What came back? The Thing?
Need link to that 2008 wsj article!
