What you say makes sense, HOWEVER, also that no “fellow student” has popped up to say, “Hey, I had classes with that guy, who woulda known he’d be president? WOW!!”. Nothing. Not ONE peep that I’ve heard about knowing him, seeing him, nada! That just doesn’t pass the smell test with me.
I get what you are saying.
Here’s the thing.
If Obama did attend Columbia University it is a bad thing because of all of the really radical influences that he would have been exposed to on that campus then certainly and to a large extent even today. Plus, if he DID attend Columbia Univ. why is he hiding his record there?
If Obama did not attend Columbia Univ, it is a bad thing too. That is because a sitting President is lying about something as significant as his education and the professors who influenced the developmeny of his political philosophy.
