He claims his poor Kenyan family then, but now...
Empty suit then, empty suit now.
Actually, I think he is a communist thinker and always will be. And I think he is someone’s tool. How much will he owe Soros
Well, what is the truth? I had heard that Obama attended a private school in Hawaii, this says that he attended public schools???
Looks like a good commercial for Oakland and Macomb Counties in Michigan (suburbs of Detroit) and in other target-rich Reagan Democrat suburban areas of OH/PA.
Once an urban snob(suburbs bore me), race baiter(blacks get treated differently), and hypocrite(NOT movements)—always an urban snob, race baiter, and hypocrite.
So this was him being interviewed, not something he published?
First glance I thought this was about a pimple.
Obama’s tenure as president is largely responsible for the destruction of the Harvard Law Review’s reputation as a scholarly publication. There’s a whole book about it:
http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1282/is_n4_v47/ai_16662305
“As the director of a program that tried to bring South Side churches, unions and block associations together on projects, Obama was not trying to solve local problems, he said. Instead he sought to construct something more lasting — a forum for the community.
“I’m interested in organizations, not movements, because movements dissipate and organizations don’t,” Obama said.”
This is a very deep and serious activist, he knows how a nation can be effectively restructured, and the people can be bypassed, by placing worms within their political system.
Movements achieve things and their members go on to other things.
Organizations stick around long after their reason for being is gone.
FWIW, Obama did say "I" a lot. Maybe the NPD threads are right.
We know neither of his HLS grades nor his entry in the writing competition. He graduated magna cum laude (top 10% of his class), but was that awarded because of his grades, or was the magna awarded to reflect his election as President of the Harvard Law Review? (it would look funny to have the HLR President not graduate with honors).
his father an Oxford and Harvard-educated economist
From all accounts, BO, Sr. didn't attend Oxford.
Obama moved to Southeast Asia at age 2 when his parents divorced and his mother married an Indonesian.
According to his book, "Dreams From My Father," published five years after this article was published, his father left for Harvard when he was two (actually he was one, but we'll play along with the book), his mother divorced BO, Sr., according to the media, in '64, when Obama was three, and she remarried somewhere around the time he was six, after which they moved to Indonesia.
But this was written without benefit of Obama's book, so if we assume the author wasn't just making stuff up and must have gotten the info from Obama himself, it's a horse of different color.
It seems kind of odd of them to take an interest in Harvard Law, unless maybe they picked the story up from another source.
Marxist gum flapping, just like he does today.
LSAT? Did anyone make sure that it was actually Obama that wrote the article for the writing competition? (Ayers again?) Why are his records sealed?
Unfortunately, the percentage of African-American students who make it into HLS or any other elite academic program with class-average LSAT or other test scores is very small. Yet to this day professors are strictly warned against flunking or grading too low such students: they have to treat them differently.
