Ha ha. I agree, except would mention of his being a foreign student be on any transcript? I fully expect that’s the game he played, I’m just not sure it would be revealed as such.
Embarrassingly bad grades, leftist and remedial subjects I expect. Maybe even extension school classes at Columbia.
I think his Harvard grades would be good, in part because he’d have had academic help and professors would not have been permitted to give him poor grades. (I knew an instructor in Harvard College who was explicitly told that she couldn’t fail any black students—she had to give them acceptable grades no matter how they performed.)
I suspect you are right. Grades aside...how did he get into these schools? Who paid for his tuition? I know that his mother’s side had some money, so I suppose that’s where the dough came from. Man, everything about this guy is strange. His mom was named Stanley? He was mentored by a card-carrying communist? Come on, this is truly bizarre stuff. If you would have told me such a man would be elected as President back in the 80’s, I would have thought you were smoking dope or you got your info from the National Enquirer back when said publication was less about celebrity gossip and more about alien abductions and Big Foot sightings.
