New Questions About How Obama Got Into Harvard (Khalid al-Mansour)

According to a newspaper column released in 1979 by Vernon Jarrett, father-in-law of Obama confidente Valerie Jarrett, President Barack Obama might owe his success to a very controversial benefactor.

Early Obama critics will remember the particularly bizarre case of Percy Sutton, a leading African-American Civil Rights leader and entrepreneur who, while being interviewed on a New York area news program, dropped something of a bomb. Specifically, Sutton claimed that then-candidate Obama had earned his admission to Harvard thanks to the intervention of a mysterious lawyer named Khalid al-Mansour, who Sutton fingered as working for one of the wealthiest men on earth. According to Sutton, Mansour had asked him to write a letter of recommendation for Obama, and was in the process of “raising money” for Obama, though what this money could be for, he didn’t specify.

"...a patron of Barack Obama and had recommended him for admission to Harvard Law School in 1998, ..."

You are headed in the general direction huldahl1776, but there are some problems with the details. Al-Mansour tellls that he met Barry at Occidental. At that time Mansour, who was also known as Don Warden, a founder of the Black Panthers, and recent graduate of Boalt Hall, called the eminent Percy Sutton, Army Air Force pilot, attorney to Malcolm X, Louis Farrakhan, The Muslim Brotherhood, and Charles Rangel, among many others, and asked for help getting Barry into Harvard. That was some time before 1988.

Mansour’s diatribes, idiosyncratic Black Nationalism mixed with Islam, can still be found on YouTube. Mansour, when he met Barry, had become both part of Alwaleed bin-Talal’s legal staff, and was working as a Whahhabi recruiter for bin-Talal, working in US Prisons. Mansour told Percy Sutton, in a popular YouTube interview from 2007, that Obama had no need for financial support because bin-Talal (who is News Corp’s largest private stockholder, News Corp owing FOX News and the WSJ, with major holdings of Citibank, Cisco, GE, Oracle, ...( was Obama’s mentor.

The clear implication is that the Saudi family has been supporting Barry at least since 1980.

A fascinating new detail was discovered by Frank Miele, referenced by Jack Cashill, about an interview Vernon Jarrett, Valarie's father-in-law, conducted with Mansour in 1979. Jarrett, described a plan being promoted by Mansour, representing bin-Talal, were proposing to finance education for minorities in the US. Jarrett is one of the Communist elites out of Chicago, a longtime friend of Marshall Davis. The connections are not speculation. You can find the Jarrett article by reading the Cashill article at WND. You can hear the eloquent Warden/Mansour on Youtube, though I could no longer find the discussion where he mentioned his introduction to Obama at Occidental (which doesn't mean it isn't still there).

Mansour, from the Jarrett interview, was representing OPEC, as counsel for bin-Talal, when he discussed the program targeting minority education. In 1979 few were aware of the Madrass program for creating Jihadis all over the world; to most it sounded like a harmless and beneficial effort to to improve the economic state and futures of the less privileged, and not a long range plan to insinuate Sharia and Islamic domination through targetted education.

Read Horowitz’ “Discover The Networks” description of Mansour. Listen to his diatribes. He is a colleague of the Rev Wright fromm Wright's Black Nationalist days. Mansour is an erudite and disciplined representative of Wahabbi Islam, with a more coherant version of Islamic history, coupled with virulent hatred of caucasions, than his, and Percy Sutton's friend, Louis Farrakhan. He has worked for the Saudi Royal family for about thirty five hears, and he was Barry's mentor after Marshall Davis, directing Saudi funds to support Barry according to Percy Sutton. Sutton was old, in his 80s, but certainly not senile when interviewed by NY public service television, and when recounting the discussion he had with Mansour in the mid-1980s. He was proud to have been able to help.

Bin-Talal donated about twenty million dollars to Harvard a little before Barry was admitted. A few years later bin-Talal founded the Alwaleed bin-Talal Center for Islamic Studies at Harvard Divinity School, following up with similar centers at Georgetown, Cambridge, and American Universtiy. His center is now the best funded division of Harvard Divinity School. Is there any doubt about who owns Elena Kagan, Larry Tribe, whom Kagan shielded from undoubted plagiarism charges, who was Obama’s adviser at Harvard Law, and the author, with Ted Olson, of the letter used to for talking points by Obama and McCaskill, Obamas campaign co-chair, when they needed to obscure Obama’s ineligibility by protecting McCain's ineligibility from being questioned again in Senate Res 511, April 2008. SR 511 became necessary after McCAskill Obama’s S. 2678, the “Children of Military families Natural Born Citizen Act” failed to pass in February 2008.

Mansour was there at the beginning of a remarkably well-planned, and successful plan to put a Saudi-owned agent in a high position. That Obama may have been the beneficiary of the program advertised by the Communist Jarrett is new, but seems likely. Barry's funding began about a year after the Jarrett article, and Jarrett was close friends with Marshall Davis, and with David Axelrod's mentor, David Canter, who worked for the Soviets for years translating Lenin into English. It is no surprised that Jarrett's daughter-in-law is often identified as the real power behind Obama’s actions.
