“They really need to go after his Columbia law school records, if it can be proven he got federal aid while posing as Indonesian, it would open a big ol’ can of worms.”

Actually, Harvard Law, but I agree with your point. “Barry Soetoro” likely registered at Occidental and Columbia as a foreign student. No telling how he go into Harvard.

The 'Obama was registered as an Indonesian' story was debunked as an April Fool's hoax almost nine months ago. I don't understand why it's still being circulated as if it were a serious matter of debate.

I mean, rumors don't get any more credulous than explicit April Fool's Day jokes.

If I remember correctly the hoax was that someone finally got hold of his records, not that it was ever proven that he didn’t go to Columbia on a foreign scholarship.

Question: Was he using the “adopted” name Barry Soetoro? If legally adopted what would be is citizenship when applying for schools?

The hoax email was the fact the records were released. Nowhere did the hoax say whether obama was enrolled as a foreign student or not.

You know for certain that Obama was not admitted as, nor applied for aid as an Indonesian citizen to Occidental, Columbia and Harvard?

That’s great! I was not aware he had released any of these records.

Just show us the records proving that he was not admitted as nor applied for aid to all of these schools as an Indonesian citizen, and yes, that will end the question as a matter of debate.

Logically, the fact that someone circulated as an April Fool’s joke a document purporting to have Obama registered as an Indonesion provides as much evidence on the underlying question as the fact that someone posted a fake Kenyan birth certificate on the Internet somehow “proves” that Obama was actually born in Hawaii.
