-Obama did not attend.

-He did not send a letter.

-He did not send a video.

-Not one attendee could remember anything about him or that he even attended.

Anyone else find this odd? No one (other than a one off "foreign exchange" student no one else recalls either) to this day remembers Obama at all?

Obama probably never went to Columbia

During that time he was using his birth name of Muhammad AlaHussein Bin Laden, and he kept mostly to himself.

I could see how old Barry was a nerd (even for an ivy school) and didn't have friends

There were only 150 of them. Supposedly they have all been tracked down and asked and the result...

zilch.

Imagine if a future president claims to have attended the College of Business at LSU in the late 90's. People would come out of the woodworks with all kinds of "stories".

But at a highly visible Ivy League school where everyone knows everyone in a focused major there is absolute silence?

So because people aren't coming forward with fake stories of their times with obama just to get attention you conclude in reality he did not attend. Yeah that makes sense. LAbor day is over dude. Time to sober up

I think Obama's past is sketch as frick, but to expect a sitting POTUS to attend his university college's reunion especially given everything that's going on in the world is sillyness.

I'm obviously arguing lesser to greater.

So it's not strange that nobody in that class remembers him? Not even "oh yeah, he was quiet, always studying."

Well, that was just the intro to the other obvious oddities. No one EXPECTED him to attend...mainly for two reasons:

1. His fellow classmates deny he went there
2. Obama's probably golfing

People ignored the black guy from Hawaii with the African name at Columbia. He blended in.

Also, this article is over a year old.

So why even argue that point in the OP?

As told to us by Wayne Allyn Root. Who claims he spoke to everyone that attended. Right?

Has there been a collective interview or serious journalist who has interviewed confirmed Columbia classmates?? Serious question

From two weeks ago

quote:

Fox News contacted 400 Columbia University students from the period when Obama claims he was there, but none remembered him. None ever heard of him at the class reunion. Obama's photograph isn't in the school yearbook. Obama consistently refuses to talk about his years at Columbia, provide school records, or names of any former classmates or friends while at Columbia. Why? Because he was never there!

I remember reading an article by that Wayne Allen Root guy that went there during that time and he was adamant that Barry was never there.

Wall Street Journal a better source?

quote:

What can be said with some certainty is that Mr. Obama lived off campus while at Columbia in 1981-83 and made few friends. Fox News contacted some 400 of his classmates and found no one who remembered him. He had transferred from Occidental College in California after his sophomore year because, he told the Boston Globe in 1990, "I was concerned with urban issues and I wanted to be around more black folks in big cities." He got a degree in political science without honors. "For about two years there, I was just painfully alone and really not focused on anything, except maybe thinking a lot," he told his biographer David Mendell.

I've heard multiple times that Obama has spent in the neighborhood of a million dollars to keep ALL of his college records sealed. So, a couple of questions:

(1) Is that true, or have those assertions been proven to be false?

(2) IF Obama has spent a considerable amount of money to keep his college records from being released to the public, why has he done this? Doesn't that strongly suggest that he has something to hide?

Oh, one last question:

(3) If anyone here claims that Obama has not made a concerted effort to keep his college records sealed, then why haven't we seen this information? We've seen Dubya's records, Rick Perry's records, etc, etc. Are we really supposed to believe that the only reason why we haven't seen Obama's records is because nobody has made an effort to obtain them?

Please, relevant responses only. LCD bullshite like tuba posted above serves no useful purpose.
