Bingo. No one remembers Obama at Columbia.
That's not true.
While it's true few people remember Obama, fellow student Phil Boerner wrote an article in the New York Times about being at Columbia with Obama. Sohale Siddiqi, Obama's roommate, has been interviewed on TV. One of his college professors has publicly announced that he remembers Obama from his classes.
Yes, it confounds me that nobody at the 30th class reunion seemed to know Obama, but it's not right to say "no one remembers Obama at Columbia." A couple of friends and a professor have come forward.
