re: 30th year poli-sci Reunion at Columbia: NOT ONE PERSON remembers Obama

Look, the bottom line is that Obama is not proud of his college record for some reason. Whatever the reason is does not matter now. Water has passed under the bridge. Y'all just want a gotcha moment.
Btw, you have not read that he has spent millions keeping his college records sealed, so stfu .

All you need to do to understand that the Obama at Columbia is a very, very strange deal is to read the Snopes article regarding this.
Snopes admits that hundreds of people have been interviewed that have no recollection of his being there. They offer only three people that remember him and two of those were roommates. The Snopes article concedes that Obama has been less than for open about his time there. In the end, even the Snopes article has to rely on conjecture to say he was there. There is little in the way of hard facts.
The whole deal with Obama and Columbia is bizarre enough that someone asking questions about it certainly shouldn't be attacked as a paranoid drunk.

I can get down w that analysis.

The original report came from an hour long special hosted by Bill Hemmer on Fox News

lol also from The Blaze:

Again, I'll reassert that this is much ado about nothing. He probably fudged his application (with god knows what) or had shitty grades but yes his secretiveness on this whole deal fuels the speculation.

#5. Barack Obama Did Attend Columbia University This one is pretty much beyond dispute. Two of Obama’s former roommates, Sohale Siddiqi and Phil Boerner (the latter of whom was also an Occidental transfer) substantiate it, along with one of Obama’s former professors, Michael L. Baron (about whom more later). Politifact also uncovered and spoke to another alumna of Columbia who remembered Obama:

I found this researching Barry before the first election because so little was known about his past. It's long as hell but someone took the time to substantiate a lot of what's on that site.
Fact of the matter is that there are A LOT of holes in his past and no one from his camp has made any sort of effort to fill in.
Methinks he lied on his paperwork to receive foreign student aid.

NOT ONE PERSON remembers Obama
I'd guess the answer is he probably skipped a lot of class. Showed up for tests (or hired someone to show up for him), and made passable grades. The larger question regards his acceptance, under those circumstances, to law school.

But why not release anything now if it was just poor grades? He has nothing to lose at this point.
That's what leads me to believe that, even with no more elections, what ever is sealed could really hurt him while in office.

At this point, objectively it fuels skepticism that they think makes the right look kooky.

Comments are gold ....even references to Manchurian candidate.
The best part is - when someone produces a record or a photo documenting his time at Columbia - here's what will happen.
"It's a fake".

Everybody knows he didn't attend and his diploma is just a piece of paper.

Babyfeetz,
Seriously dude, you are a fricking idiot. Your reply to me doesn't even make sense. On the one hand, you say it's obvious that Obama would be embarrassed to have his records made public. Dude, how is that not having something to hide?
As for Obama spending a considerable sum to keep his records sealed, I've read that multiple times. If Obama hasn't made an effort to keep his records sealed, why haven't we seen them? We've seen other politicians' records. You really think that nobody has tried to get those records? Why have they been unsuccessful in doing so?
Finally, I usually refrain from replying to your smartass remarks. You are a nonentity to me. But for all the times you have avoided giving a relevant response by posting personal bullshite, here's one for you. Go frick yourself, you phony.

Not really. The media, even the right, no longer reports on this.
All it does is fuel skepticism about who he really is by the people themselves when they see his growing "incompetence" when dealing with Islam.
My guess is he became an Indonesian citizen early in life and applied as a Muslim to get into schools.
That would be terrible optics for him considering he has been briefed since June of 2013 on the threat of ISIS and has not acted even though there were plans to take ISIS out a year ago.

This is the way I see it too. The Root once did a story on Obama during his formative years, and tha article pointed out that he was never one of the cool kids, and at the time Michelle hooked up with him, probably because she was a nerd too, most sistas wouldn't have given him the time of day.

by the kooks on the right. I would wager 99 out of 100 folks on the street couldn't even tell you what college Obama went to much less have any idea about this "controversy".

This is one of the possibilities I think is viable for all the secretiveness.

His handling of the ISIS situation is bad enough without this even being mentioned.

You say this...
Then this...
Are you a kook?
EXACTLY. Now take YOUR theory above and marry the two ideas and tell me how that would look to the average American right now.

Most of that is documented on that site I posted if anyone wants to give it a look.
