Post it in non-caps (unless an isolated word here or there is emphasized with all-caps) and paragraph breaks and maybe I’ll read it.

From the headline, though, I’d say you’re chasing a non-issue. The Ivys and similar private colleges put together financial aid packages partly based on need, and partly on how much they want the student. Interesting life-history (essentially the only thing Obama has going for him, and he had it when he applied to Columbia and Harvard), race, HS (or college) GPA, and being from an ‘underrepresented’ state all are bases for the university or college itself ‘paying’ most of the cost of attendance.

It cost me about as much to send my daughter to Mount Holyoke (where the ‘rack rate’ is comparable to the Ivys) as it would have to send her to the local state university, because a student from Kansas with a 3.98 HS GPA and about a year’s worth of college credit, including completely fulfilled language requirements, just out of HS was too good to pass up.

I’m afraid unless you already have hard evidence either of a private scholarship being created for the benefit of Barack Obama (I had a private scholarship from a benefactor, but that’s a long odd story) or of Obama being sent ‘rack rate’ tuition bills that somehow got paid, you’re likely chasing after a will-o-the-wisp if you think there’s something odd about Obama being able to afford the Ivys.

Here it is in a quick reformat.

I don't know who wrote this but it has too much truth in it to let go un noticed i hope everyone will look at it and think on it for a few minutes

Bubba on obama ... Please read all the way to the bottom. Maybe I've gott'n this all wrong - me just be'n an old farm boy without much education... But now, y'all check this out: his father was a kenyan, a muslim, and a black- we seen all those pictures of his nice African family. His mother is Kansan, atheist, and white.

So - where are all those pictures of his nice white mother and his nice white grandparents - the ones who raised him all those early years? His father deserted his mother and him when he was very young and moved back to live with his family in Kenya (that's the ones in the pictures). His white mother then married an Indonesian Muslim and took him to the city of Jakarta where he was first schooled in a muslim school .

His mother then moved to Hawaii and he was raised by his white middle-american grandparents there.ummm...now here's the hard part for me (help me out here, if you can):somehow, suddenly - he went to the best high dollar prep schools in america , and later, he got into a top ivy league college and later, into harvard law school- how? Who sponsored him? Who paid for all that schooling? (have you looked at tuition expenses to attend undergraduate yale lately? How about harvard law school ? Somebody paid a lot of bucks for this kid's ivy league education.......) Who?

A senator's salary is not that great, but this young man and his young wife presently live in a $1.4 million dollar house that he acquired through a"deal" with a wealthy fund raiser. What sort of "deal"? Right out of Harvard law, he "worked" as a civil rights activist in Chicago .. He then entered politics at the state level and then moved to the national level - where he scrambles today with very minimal experience in anything - while other people write his speeches for him.

In all his time in the state and national legislatures - he's never launched any important legislation whatsoever mostly, he's out running f or president. He claims to be "proud of his African heritage" but it seems that his only connection with Africa was that his African father got a white girl pregnant and then deserted her.

Ummm....where is the pride in his white heritage? After all - it was white grandparents that raised him! He is presently a member (for over 20 years!) Of an "Afrocentric" church in Chicago that hates whites, hates Jews, and blames America for all the world's faults.

He repeatedly covered up for that pastor and that church - saying that he can separate the religion from the politics, when he hears a hate-whitey sermon. He claimed that he was simply unable to confront his pastor of 20+ years about the pastor's demonstrated un-American bias, but he wants us to believe that he can confront north Korea and Iran, when the time arises to take America's side.

Yeah - with this background and experience, he "hopes" that he could be a uniter and bring us all together; but - we think that the real "hope" is, that he really hopes, that no one will put all these pieces together, until after the election ... And he wants to be our commander and chief of our armed forces and he was never in the service.

Hmmm....... We can't let this happen. I strongly urge each one of you to think about this. I refuse to take a chance on this unknown candidate who came out of nowhere

Who paid for Obama to go to Ivy league college??

In an Obama advert maybe a month or two ago, the narrator said that
Obama had “worked his way” thorough his college/university career.

Somebody objected and when a re-worked version aired, the narrator
said “got through school by working and taking student loans”.

And I think that during the Democratic Convention either Obama or
his wife mentioned needing to pay off their loans some years after
graduation.

I suspect that Obama didn’t really have true struggles as he
(AFAIK)
got a nice book deal for being the first head of Harvard Law Review
with at really, really good tan.
Even if published zero or just one scholarly legal article (depending
on different sources).
I wouldn’t be suprised if that book deal didn’t provide Obama with
plenty of cash.
