These allegations, as the article forthrightly stipulates, are unproven but nevertheless instructive. Is illustrative of how adept the left is at getting us to fund their advancement. They invariably find ways to use Other People's Money. In this instance the article talks of Arab oil money to fund African-American students (read far left African American students) but we all know that American universities have long since found ways to tap taxpayers, taxpayer supported, taxpayer guaranteed monies to advance leftism on campus, specifically through preferred admissions programs based on race which are further funded by grants and scholarships etc..
We use our universities ostensibly to educate our youth but to a great degree we use our universities as gatekeepers. If a University with the reputation of Harvard, for example, puts its imprimatur on an individual such as it has done with such as Barack Obama and with Elizabeth Warren, it tells the world that these people are worthy, that they have been identified as the brightest of the bright, it tells the world it is okay to hire them in our business, law firms, or to incorporate them in the leadership of our political parties. Has Harvard sold out to Arab oil money? Undoubtedly. If they did not have Arab oil money was leftism so advanced on campus they would pursue the same course because they're funded by now by taxpayers? Certainly.
If you believe as I do that culture trumps politics you should be as worried as I am about the culture on campus. If we lose the battle of the University quad we cannot expect to win the war in the electoral voting booth. If we are funding our enemy, if we are paying for a culture which will defeat us in the polling booth, we have virtually no chance. This even before we try to wage top down war against a demographic tsunami which, by the way, is also being funded by the taxpayers.
