1. Why choose Columbia? Who prompted him? A known 'stoner'. A poor student in both Hawaii and Occidental (according to what we have been able to piece together) suddenly decides to move 3,000 miles to a school he's never seen, in a city he may never have actually visited,...why?
Sure, any college or university can admit anyone they want IF they are willing to forgo standards for race or politics. I'm not disputing that. But WHY this particular little nobody? Who made the call to Columbia saying let this doper in? Who was propelling him forward,...and why him?
It just seems impossible that up until this twerps arrival at Harvard the Editor of the Law Review is chosen on merit. But as soon as doofus arrives it's made into a popularity contest. Why? First Black (mulatto!!) Editor. It wouldn't have taken a genius professor to size this mental midget up immediately and yet they still elevate him. Very typical of the liberal agenda and playbook.
Hard to believe that Obama criminally exposed Ryan's divorce papers to force him out of the race (and payed NO penalty even though everyone knows he was behind it),...and here he is doing everything in his power to block the public from seeing his college transcripts and applications. Simply amazing how the Lamestream Media lapdogs have licked this guy's ass for 5 years and yet they will hound Romney to death about releasing his taxes.
Is there NO shame?
Doc, Obama was mentored at Occidental by a gay activist commie, Professor Laurence Goldyn. Goldyn was a very good friend of Bill Ayers. It is my theory that Goldyn passed Obama onto Ayers, who was active in NYC at that time and had very close family ties to Columbia Faculty. Obama seems to have lived very near Ayers in those days.
Who made the call to Columbia saying let this doper in? Who was propelling him forward,...and why him?
Columbia School of General Studies had two entrance requirements: a pulse, and a check. It was pretty much a walk-in service school operation. For instance, I took Organic Chemistry there one summer to get it out of the way and because I was frightened of the Chem Faculty at my college! Aced it! And boy was it expensive (late 50's).
However, many used General Studies it to get a degree from Columbia, too, which was possible. The degree was strangely enough, issued by the College, even though General Studies students were definitely not part of that prestigious operation.
In re Harvard LAw: Obama was NOT THE EDITOR of the HLR. He was the President, an administrative job, which he screwed up royally, having to be covered by others. The guy can neither write nor edit anything unto this day. He is actually bit of an ignoramus.
