In my view it is nearly impossible that a “red diaper” Marxist, such as Obama, would ever have been recruited by the CIA. Their recruiting, at the time, was explicitly designed to exclude America-hating Reds like Obama.

`If that is true, how would CIA then be able to conduct Counter-Intelligence???

Before the election, we were many saying that Barry Soetoro would NEVER get through Secret Service Clearance to enter into the White House, but he passed and sailed through, no questions asked. I always wondered how that was possible, and then all his life's records are locked up in "Fort Knox". The Scooter Libby's CIA trial-case comes to mind, hmmm!!!

There's no clearance required for the president or vice president. If you get elected, you're in.

The FBI is (at least was at the time) exclusively responsible for counterespionage within the US. It was illegal for the CIA to conduct any operations in the US.

CIA agents are loyal US citizens who are tasked with recruiting foreign persons on foreign soil who are willing to betray their own countries.

The KGB was tasked to find US traitors and the FBI is tasked to uncover these efforts and create double agents if appropriate.

I was a classmate of Scooter Libby, as well as a CIA recruit up to the very last stage before my rejection and the Libby case really had nothing to do with what qualities a CIA agent would have, which would have excluded Obama.

Obama has never been subjected to a US security clearance. He was elected by 53% of the voters and gained a majority in the electoral college after the Dems certified that he was eligible and this was not successfully challenged in the courts. There was no security clearance there at all!
