“Noticing them doesn’t mean remembering their name.”
In 1971 I attended 6th grade in a school with exactly one black kid. I still remember his name, and I’m not that good with names.
“NOBODY REMEMBERS OBAMA AT COLUMBIA !!!!!!!”
I will work hard for his future opponent, to make the American public feel the same way about his one term presidency.
I'm having too much fun watching jackasses like you make a mountain out of a molehill. How moronic do you have to be to take internet chain emails seriously? But then again you already set the bar pretty low in that regard.
A quick google search will turn up people who knew him there. But of course if you did that then you'd have to turn in your tinfoil beanie in disgrace.
How are you doing?
Columbia Alumns who knew Bambi have been interviewed and featured in the Alumni magazine, which I get.
As to some random 400 people not remembering him, that's not particularly surprising. Columbia College is a big school. The typical graduating class has around 800 individuals. That makes it very easy to get lost in the crowd.
That's especially true for a transfer student who did not attend Freshman orientation, lived off campus, didn't participate in any clubs or student organizations, and mainly kept to himself.
Columbia has officially verified that he 1) graduated with a BA degree and 2) completed a political science major. They also verified his years of attendance.
They have not released his transcript because it protected by privacy laws. Bambi refuses to release his transcript most likely because it shows poor grades. By all accounts currently in the public domain, he struggled and barely graduated.
I'm not sure why everyone here finds this so sinister.
They have, as you can verify for yourself with a simple Google search.
This is a really stupid thread.
There are people who have come forward, as a simple Google search will reveal.
Not one photo,
There are photos.
not one written record,
There is a written record. Obama wrote an op-ed for the student newspaper. You can find it online.
I'm amazed how quick people are to believe what some idiot posts on a blog.
You can't just go by anonymous e-mails. They usually aren't the product of exhaustive research.
There's at least one professor (Michael Baron) who remembers Obama and at least two students who transfered from Occidental with him (Sohale Siddiqi and Phil Boerner) who also remember him. There are more people who remember him at Occidental.
I'm not saying there may not be mysteries about what Obama was doing during his college years and why he left so scant an impression at Columbia, but it's hard to make the case that he wasn't even there.
Hey, curiosity.... it killed the cat, you know. How’s KAK? We need new photos on FB. :-)
As I have said before: Someone needs to set up a website where anyone who has proof that Obama was in their life in any way, at any time, can submit it there. It would be good to pay people for the information if it is verifiable. We need to find out the true past of this man.
I think we need to offer some pretty good money for anyone who has verifiable proof that they knew him or were a part of his life at any time. We need to start connecting the dots about who he really is, where he has spent his time and just exactly what he has been up to.
Let's not forget this:

Howard Dean & the DNC have alot of explaining to do, IMO.
Everyone read post 61 please. There also has been another fellow student who has come forward about him then.
Or not one past girlfriend who claims to have dated him?
