Looking for evidence of Obama's past, Fox News contacted 400 Columbia University students from the period when Obama claims to have been there, but none remembered him.
Wayne Allyn Root was, like Obama, a political science major at Columbia who also graduated in 1983. In 2008, Root says of Obama, "I don't know a single person at Columbia that knew him, and they all know me.
I don't have a classmate who ever knew Barack Obama at Columbia. Ever! Nobody recalls him. I'm not exaggerating, I'm not kidding." Root adds that he was also, like Obama, "Class of '83 political science, pre-law" and says, "You don't get more exact or closer than that. Never met him in my life, don't know anyone who ever met him.
At the class reunion, our 20th reunion five years ago, who was asked to be the speaker of the class? Me.
No one ever heard of Barack! And five years ago, nobody even knew who he was. The guy who writes the class notes, who's kind of the, as we say in New York, the macha who knows everybody, has yet to find a person, a human who ever met him. Is that not strange?
It's very strange." Obama's photograph does not appear in the school's yearbook and Obama consistently declines requests to talk about his years at Columbia, provide school records, or provide the name of any former classmates or friends while at Columbia.

NOTE: Root graduated as Valedictorian from his high school, Thornton-Donovan School, then graduated from Columbia University in 1983 as a Political Science major (in the same class as President Barack Obama WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN IN)
The communist traitor mole plot thickens.
odd isn’t it
“FREE THE LONG FORM!”
Do you think he’s lying about this too, or is that just crazy talk?
Hmmmmmmm.
Which alias was he using back then? Was he really there????
Of course they remember him! He was the one with the red, black and green fist afro pick in his back pocket and the cigarette dangling from his mouth always “axin” for a light.
Obama’s Columbia years are shrouded in mystery. However, I believe he attended. How else could he have gotten into Harvard Law?
bttt
But I have not seen this Columbia story before, so I don't know if it's verified or not.
He probably attended by way of home schooling from Atica.
this guy say Fox News did something. does Fox News agree they did this work?
Yeah, it's not like somebody could get paid off to just type up a transcript for somebody who was never in any class, showing him as having been there.
The “sory” may not be true, but nobody knows what he was registered as. He has those records sealed and is fighting any attempt to release them.
The same way he got into Colombia, of course. :)
And this obama freak defies 1000 degrees of freedom?????????? What the hell??
sory=story
You would think that being popular meant having friends. It’s a little odd that he had no friends or anyone else who remembered him.
