Vetting: Desperate, Obama supporters portray all who look into his past as "birthers." Now they ridicule efforts to find how a pot-smoking slacker got into Columbia and Harvard.
But Obama's college records are a legitimate campaign issue. Mysteries abound, chiefly concerning his transfer to Columbia and ascension to Harvard. Voters, moreover, have had the benefit of knowing other recent Democrat White House hopefuls' course work and grades.
If there's nothing to hide, why not release these academic records?
Why is the White House stonewalling?
An objective press corps ought to be curious. But it has by and large refused to pursue the issue, even though it hectored George W. Bush to release his college transcripts.
Here are 10 reasons the electorate has every right to see Obama's records:
1. Liberal historians have crowned Obama "the smartest guy ever to become president." Prove it. We're not convinced. Neither are the millions of Americans who still can't find jobs, thanks to his failed policies. Let's see his course work. Did he get an F in Econ 101 while acing his Marxism classes? We wouldn't be surprised.

he can’t and never will
Zer0 is still a choom slacker.
I for one don’t care if Obama releases his transcripts. The man’s an idiot, we all know it... even Moron ODowd has admitted it.
A foreign student...slacker.
This is the first I've heard of "radical Chicago leftist" mentor John McKnight.

Kerry's transcripts eventually became public but from what I have read it happened only after the November 2004 election. The media never forced Kerry to make his discharge papers public. He let one sycophantic historian look at them (and maybe only in part).
It's a pattern with Democratic candidates. No pressure or minimal pressure to release college transcripts, military records, or medical records. Clinton wasn't forced to release his medical records. Who knows what embarrassing information would have been revealed?
Everything about Obama is a lie, and built on the same principle

I for one dont care if Obama releases his transcripts. The mans an idiot, we all know it... even Moron ODowd has admitted it.
I want to see them because I believe he went to school as a foreign student. That would constitute fraud if he received admission/student aid as a foreign student. While the statute of limitations has long since expired on any crime that might have been committed, it would certainly impact his law license or ability to testify in any legal proceeding because it is a crime of dishonesty.
A police officer would no longer be able to do their job (or even obtain their job) if they did the same thing. I believe we will find this out, but it will be after Obama has left office. I would also like to know what passport he used to travel to Pakistan during his college years.
There is too much smoke for there not to be a fire somewhere. I think we deserve to know the truth and once it comes out we should ram it down their throats.
Playing devil’s advocate with my own hypothesis. It is hard for me to believe that the Clinton’s did not know this and I think they would have used it. They have plenty of MSM and Ivy League friends. This has always created a bit of doubt for me on the allegations against Obama and it’s difficult to reason away given the Clinton’s history unless there was a quid pro quo on dirt.
There are a lot of Kerry records, esp. from Vietnam, that have never been released. Some operational records are missing.
He has released nothing about his contacts with the communist Vietnamese in Paris for at least two trips, if not three. Some journalists have identified admitted small “c” communist David Dellinger (Mr. Hanoi Lobby) and the Communist Party of France as the go-betweens. This could be a direct violation of the Logan Act.
I would contact his former campaign spokesman Wade Sanders but he is serving a federal sentence for possession of child pornography.
I’d contact Kerry’s brother but he is an admitted/convicted burglar.
Theresa> She doesn’t know shit except money.
Al Hubbard, the fraudulent VVAW leader. He’d lie thru his teeth about Kerry.
Kerry is an Obama-lite. The Chicago commie is very shrewd at covering his tracks and his past, with the knowing, complicit involvement of the mainstream media.
I’d personally like to know about any contact Obama had with a Soviet operative named David Simon Canter (Chicago Communist Party, etc). Did our boy do something rash?
WHAT A JOKE!!!
His entire narrative on who his parents were etc are all just lies. He truly has a fairytale past. Was watching Glenn Beck expose lies from that speech he gave at the dem convention that “launched” him. The majority of it was all lies—unbelievable that he continues to get away with it.
Good points, all.
The reports I’ve heard that the Clintons shut up about what they found because they wanted to insure their daughter’s safety. I find that credible.
What reports are these? I am obviously not doubting what you say, I just want to read for myself...
“unbelievable that he continues to get away with it.”
