“Who Paid for Obama’s College Education?”
Typical white people
Who knows. He always talks about having just paid off his student loans.
America will pay for it if Obama gets elected.
Talk about electile dysfunction.

RICH AMERICAN MUSLIM MAY HAVE HELPED OBAMA INTO HARVARD LAW SCHOOL

When Barack Obama was seeking to get into Harvard Law School (he entered in the fall of 1988) he had the assistance of Khalid Al-Mansour, a Black Muslim and Black Nationalist who was a “mentor” to the founders of the Black Panther party at the time the party was founded in the early 1960s.
There is some suggestion that Mansour had provided financial assistance to Obama for Harvard Law School, though the Obama campaign denies this.
Obama has refused all requests that Harvard and Columbia open up his records for examination, as he has refused requests to have the official birth records of the State of Hawaii opened to resolve questions that have been raised about his place of birth. [Nonetheless Columbia confrmed Obama graduated in 1983 with a degree in political science, but without honors.]

white people deserve — and want — to have their ears and noses cut off, and that Muslims shouldn’t worry, “because God wants you to do it
More on this story. “Obama Had Close Ties to Top Saudi Adviser at Early Age,” by Kenneth R. Timmerman for NewMax, September 3 (thanks to JM):
New evidence has emerged that Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama was closely associated as early as age 25 to a key adviser to a Saudi billionaire who had mentored the founding members of the Black Panthers.
In a videotaped interview this year on New York’s all news cable channel NY1, a prominent African-American businessman and political figure made the curious disclosures about Obama. (See Video Clip Below)
Percy Sutton, the former borough president of Manhattan off-handedly revealed the unusual circumstances about his first encounter with the young Obama.
“I was introduced to (Obama) by a friend who was raising money for him,” Sutton told NY1 city hall reporter Dominic Carter.
“The friend’s name is Dr. Khalid al-Mansour, from Texas,” Sutton said. “He is the principal adviser to one of the world’s richest men. He told me about Obama.”
[...]
In an exclusive interview with Newsmax from his home in San Antonio, Texas, al-Mansour said he would not comment specifically on the statement by Percy Sutton because he was afraid anything he said would get “distorted.”
“I was determined I was never going to be in that situation,” he said. “Bloggers are saying this is the new Rev. Wright — in drag! — and he is a nationalist, racist, and worse than Rev. Wright. So any statement that I made would only further this activity which is not in the interest of Barack.”
But in the lengthy interview, al-Mansour confirmed that he frequently spoke on university campuses, including Columbia, where Percy Sutton suggested he met Obama in the late 1980s, and confirmed his close relationship with Prince Alwaleed.

This is a non-starter. Fancy schools don’t charge everyone rack-rate. If you’ve got good enough grades and are ‘interesting enough’, the fancy school pays most of the bill themselves.
My daughter went to Mount Holyoke College, which has a rack rate comparable to the Ivys, and we paid about as much as it would have cost to send her to the local state U. She had a heap of college credit earned during HS, a high GPA, and came from a ‘big square state’.
Obama, with a Kenyan father, sojourn in Indonesia, and so forth would have gotten Columbia to pay most of the cost of his attendance out of income on their endowment; Harvard Law probably threw a fat financial aid package his way, as well.
I’m guessing that his race was a postive factor in his obtaining scholarships.
If you are the right kind of black or native American, you can write your own ticket. He got to Columbia the same way that Michelle got to Princeton—on a free ride, all expenses paid.
I know. I was once on a graduate admissions committee. One year we had a black applicant with high SAT scores—actually one of the best applicants that year. We offered him a full scholarship, but Harvard outbid us with three years of guaranteed full scholarships and expenses.
Obama could have had middling grades and still gotten his expenses paid, probably.
He says he got a scholarship to go to Punahou and won additional scholarships at Occidental and Columbia and Harvard, in addition to student loans. I have no way of verifying this.
I have wondered the same thing, but those universities receive huge endowments and often make it very affordable for “desirable” students (as defined by the school) to attend.

He got in under AA, even though he is not of slave blood, was raised by a white family in a white neighborhood and went to a private rich kids all-white school. He had every advantage, yet took the AA route.
In other words, he stole someone else’s slot. Some African-American’s slot.
His grandmother wasnt exactly a bank teller. By the time he was a teenager she had worked her way up to vice president.
He probably took out student loans.
