Obama classmate: There is a reason Obama refuses to release his college records
Examiner ^ | 08/07/2012 | Robert Moon

Posted on 08/07/2012 8:43:05 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

An Obama classmate from Columbia University called him out this week for stirring up a bogus smear campaign against Romney over his taxes, insisting that Obama's motive is not only to distract voters from the worst economic recovery in post-WWII history, but also to avoid a far more scandalous and devastating skeleton Obama has hiding in his own closet...buried deep inside those college records he still refuses to unseal (and has paid millions to keep under lock and key).

From Wayne Allyn Root (via The Blaze):

"If anyone should have questions about Obama’s record at Columbia University, it’s me. We both graduated (according to Obama) Columbia University, Class of ’83. We were both (according to Obama) Pre-Law and Political Science majors. And I thought I knew most everyone at Columbia. I certainly thought I’d heard of all of my fellow Political Science majors. But not Obama (or as he was known then- Barry Soetoro). I never met him. Never saw him. Never even heard of him. And none of the classmates that I knew at Columbia have ever met him, saw him, or heard of him.

But don’t take my word for it. The Wall Street Journal reported in 2008 that Fox News randomly called 400 of our Columbia classmates and never found one who had ever met Obama."

In other words, Obama is going to great lengths to prevent the release of his records from a school that no one remembers him attending (which means he either completely lied about graduating there or failed a lot of classes, which would prevent him from getting financial aid) and that he had no means of paying for at the time.

If there is evidence of criminal activity such as fraudulently receiving federal benefits, this whole concealment effort becomes obstruction of justice.

Is there any evidence that he received foreign student aid? There's not a judge alive who would order the disclosure of Obama's student records because some people on the internet think he received foreign aid.

Would it even have been to his advantage to sign up as a foreign student? I knew a handful of foreign students in college and law school, and many of them talked about how much harder it was to get student aid as a foreign student. Yes, there are certain programs directed specifically at foreign students (Fulbright scholarships, for one); but, at the same time, there are many more scholarships and grants that are available only to U.S. citizens and not to foreign students. Moreover, foreign students are not eligible for Federal student loans.

My brother-in-law went to Punahou at the same time BO was supposedly there and the best basketball player to ever live in Hawaii. BIL followed basketball and remembers only one black player (and it wasn’t BO).

” With what this guy has gotten away with, we deserve to crumble.

We have 310 million citizens that should be ashamed.”

A lot of truth to this. We really need a 5 million man march on D.C. demanding all background information on Obama. The whole RNC is in hiding.

I had a spattering of professors in undergrad that had that attitude, but most were very strict - miss “x” number of classes, I drop you from the class with an “F”.

My graduate work (Seminary), You miss more than two classes, you failed the class (without some kind of MASSIVELY important and verifiable issue/emergency). Of course, when a class meets once per week - missing more than a couple of classes was a LOT.

RE :”I cant fight for those who refuse to even try.”.......
It isn’t your job to fight...this job belongs to highly paid slut/cowards like Boehner and McConnell.

My thoughts too.

Don't forget Karl Rove. He collects the $$$ from the big $$ Republicans who wanted Romney to begin with, Let him lie awake nights worrying about Romney's floundering and weakness

Also there are abunch of ABBOs' here who claim that Romney is cleaning Obama's clock. 4 pinged me yesterday. What me worry?

I have frequently forgotten to mention Andrew Card. He was in there screwing things up along with them, and he still comes out to support idiotic policy along the lines of what Rove does.

I’ve been trying to remind myself to give him the credit he’s do, for helping to screw things up.

Where was Wayne in 2008 ?

I don't know. Good question. But I doubt it would have made a difference.

Snopes is a left wing web site so that’s to be expected.

Which recently was put on display for an unrelated bit of info - the US Small Arms Treaty. Snopes listed it as old and dead... yet as we all who have paid attention just in the last few weeks, was very much still "alive and kicking"... And my Senator's office thanked me for staying on top of it and contacting them about it - and told me it was still a big ongoing issue. Snopes, when consulted about non-political stuff, can be ok. But if it is political in nature - it is as biased as CNN.

Because the concept of a foreign exchange student at the college level would be an easy way to discredit a researcher into Obama's past

Oh no, that's a typo, It should read:

"foreign sexchange student"

In my Law School, you were allowed 3 unexcused absences.

I had a dumb liberal relative tell me “Obama won the election. That settles the citizenship issue.”

I pointed out to another liberal relative a bunch of dumb statements obama made and his reply was “Well, he didn’t mean it.”

Those who worship will continue to worship him not matter what truths are told about him. And the media and republicans are just as guilty.

Here's an interesting idea:

This link is to a Brinks Robbery, 1981 in New York. Interestingly it's the same year that Obama was "missing".

It was carried out by Black Liberation members PLUS members of the Weathermen, William Ayers group.

As I understood it, there were some participants in this robbery that were never caught.

What if Obama participated in this robbery? Further what if he had to have a new identify established afterwards because of the chance that he could have been linked to this robbery? That would explain the birth certificate stuff, the social security snafu, why the transcripts are missing and why he's such good friends with Bill Ayers.

Hmmmm

It wasn’t long ago that many FReepers thought Karl Rove was a good guy. I have despised him from at least the year 2000. A RINO/NWO-pro amnesty POS, who stabs conservatives in the back for sport.

I’m not sure why, but I didn’t fixate on the guy until 2002 or possibly a little later. At least I don’t believe I did.
