All of his academic records are sealed, so those wouldn’t be available. He was a transfer student and is known to have lived off campus, so there wouldn’t be any dorm records, etc., or possibly even anybody who knew him. He seems to have spent most of his time with various radical left-wing organizations and his two foreign (Muslim) roommates. I suspect that he was involved with Bill Ayers at this point, since Ayers was going to Teachers College at the same time.

I have always thought that he was in the external degree program run by Columbia and not in the regular Columbia University undergrad program. Also, there were several other programs he might have been part of; I think there was some sort of “Labor College” program that was run through Columbia, which was quite a left-wing organization at the time that he is said to have attended.

Also, I think he did publish one pro-disarmament article or letter in some campus publication at some point.

In any case, he’s hiding something.

“In any case, he’s hiding something.”

I’ll tell the world.

I think Obama got some left wing administrator to allow him to design his own curriculum. In other words, his degree is bull$hit.

1. Certified copy of original birth certificate
2. Columbia University transcripts
3. Columbia thesis paper
4. Campaign donor analysis requested by 7 major watchdog groups
5. Harvard University transcripts
6. Illinois State Senate records
7. Illinois State Senate schedule
8. Law practice client list and billing records/summary
9. Locations and names of all half-siblings and step-mothers
10. Medical records (only the one page summary released so far)
11. Occidental College Transcripts
12. Parent’s marriage Certificate
13. Record of baptism
14. Selective Service registration records
15. Schedules for trips outside of the United States before 2007
16. Scholarly articles

I'm betting that he was involved in this Brinks robbery. Many of it's members were members or former members of Ayers Weathermen terrorists. Several members were never caught.

I think he's hiding something too (he's way too closed-mouthed about way too many records) but that said, according to this 2008 article from the NY Sun -

Federal law limits the information that Columbia can release about Mr. Obama's time there. A spokesman for the university, Brian Connolly, confirmed that Mr. Obama spent two years at Columbia College and graduated in 1983 with a major in political science. He did not receive honors, Mr. Connolly said, though specific information on his grades is sealed. A program from the 1983 graduation ceremony lists him as a graduate.

In about 18 months, sealed or not, something more must come to light, if this fellow wants to be re-elected, that is. He cannot register as a candidate in several states without showing among other things, long form birth certificate PLUS school transcripts and proof of residency. That's when it's going to get hot. Sure, he'll get some crook judges to rule in his favor that he doesn't have to show them, or he'll get Dem sos’s to certify without actually providing, but we'll see if just one of those state laws hold up.

Politically, he’s not hiding much.

Lets just call him the MANCHURIAN president
