Donald Trump is upping the ante against President Barack Obama's legitimacy, raising questions on Monday night about how the president was admitted to two Ivy League schools.

Trump openly questioned how Obama, who he said had been a "terrible student," got accepted into Columbia University for undergraduate studies and then Harvard Law School.

Aside from becoming the "first African-American president" "first Affirmative-Action president", what achievements are you talking about?

The One is extremely thin-skinned and arrogant and not accustomed to criticism from anyone.

No, he is not. And I'd bet the fact that the birther issue makes the headlines daily pisses him off beyond words, even if the talking heads in the lame-stream media are working double-time defending him.

Let him show his records," he said, without providing backup for his claim.
Snide leftist commentary from Politico.

I don’t think it takes bribe money to get ignoramuses into Harvard (and back out the other end). Just standard tuition will do. And affirmative action ignoramuses don’t even have to spend their own money.

When it comes to Politico, would you expect anything less?

As for his wide load wife, dittos to that. She’s barely community college material.
Wide in the middle, light on top.

Hah! 'The Donald' is out-lawyering the lawyer. He knows the answer to the question nobody dares bring up (that'd be 'racist').

That being said, another question should be asked: How the heck did Barry get into Occidental College? From it's website, acceptance is NOT easy, nor automatic, and a H.S. 'C' student 'ain't' gettin' in.

So ... how did the pot smokin' Barry? The guy was a black version of Jeff Spicoli -- without the Surfing part.

I wonder what The Donald’s FreeRepublic user name is.
I hope he reads FR. Maybe we can get through to him. That the main problem in America isn't the Chinese government, it's our own government, in all its high-spending ways.

I love it.
Force the liberals and progressives to produce evidence that 0bama is a genius.

Let the transcripts and records speak for themselves

The Donald (or his advisers) are reading FreeRepublic. He’s well versed in the fraud that is Obama. And he’s got big balls. Unlike the wimp wing of the GOP.

I bet it also scares him. If he was truly born in Kenya (which I believe), then the daily discussion of this issue must be making him very, very nervous. Either that or he's using lots of drugs.

I have felt the same way about the MSM claims of Obie's "superior intellect".

Trump is our fearless soldier of fortune, our mercenary gladiator focused on exposing Obama.

Let him fly.

Does anyone actually have to ask this question?

Voice of experience:this year affirmative students with 1900 on SATs got into Ivies while white middle class males with over 2300 0n SATs were shut out.How would you like it if it was your son or grandson?
