Obama did not have a scholarship arranged by Grampa’s boss. Where did you get this information?

OK. So how about you tell us how he got into the school and how his tuition got paid?

David Mendell claims in his book, Obama: From Promise to Power, that Gramps's boss, who was an alumnus, got him into Punahou. Another source claims the connection was Frank Manaut, who was the president of the bank at which his grandmother was a VP and a trustee of Punahou. Of course, there is no reason both individuals could not have been involved. It has also been widely reported that Punahou extended financial aid to permit Obama to attend.

Obama was a heavy drug user at Punahou and an indifferent student. Obama’s grades and student record from Punahou have NEVER been released. Any assumption about Obama’s ability to get into any school because of his record at Punahou is nothing but idle speculation.

How would we know, if his grades are not available? My guess is, he went to Occidental because his grades and test scores were mediocre. But that's only a guess. A Punahou kid with good grades and scores should have been Harvard material.

There is no record of Obama ever having attended Columbia University. None of the other Political Science majors at the time recall ever meeting him or even seeing him in any of their classes. No other students recall ever seeing him in the library or on campus. He was in NYC the same time Ayers and Dohrn were. They lived near each other.

Standard birther garbage. For instance, Michael Baron, who was one of his teachers at Columbia, remembers giving him an A for a paper on nuclear arms reduction. As for Ayers and Dohrn, his connecting with them in NYC makes it more likely, not less, that he did indeed go to Columbia.

Obama’s stories about having a job on Wall Street has been shown to be untrue.

Link? You would need to prove he never worked at Business International. But you can't. Why would it matter, one way other?

You really should try to learn a little about the false narrative of Obama’s life that is pushed by the MSM.

It's obvious that I am much better at sorting truth from fiction than you.

obvious to you? You certainly didn't sort out any truth in your Punahou claims, or anything else in that BS of yours.

I'm with you cynwoody. Sorting fact from fiction in Obama's biography is indeed harder work than dealing with only the problem of Obama's birth, Selective Service and Social Security records.

But, since the government agencies of the US and Hawaii (that serve as the legal authority on the authenticity of the original documents) and the courts (that should serve to force the cooperation of those agencies) have all been compromised - it is Obama's biography that must be the target for truth loving patriots in these few month remaining before the November election.

Here's the link to the NY Times article that the blogger DENKO mentions, but does not link, in his post revealing the truth of the times he and Obama worked at Business International.

"Obama’s Account of New York Years Often Differs From What Others Say" (NY-Times 10/30/07)

It not only identifies DENKO (Dan Armstrong) and quotes him, but identifies and quotes others who worked at that company at that time. The article also identifies and quotes people who knew Obama during his Columbia years.

If the governmental agencies and courts will not address the problem of his vital records to expose Obama, only the testimony of other Americans, who knew him can expose him.

Obama’s legal team has gone to great effort and expense to seal ALL Obama’s academic records. I am amazed that you are ignorant of that fact. Obama’s stooges in the MSM then write false accounts of Obama’s education which can't be verified. We know Obama NEVER graduated with honors or was on any list of students with a GPA of over 3.0 or 3.3 or whatever the threshold was.

At Business International Obama was essentially a file clerk copying and collating articles. It was not a high level Wall Street job as Obama claimed in Dreams From My Father.

400 people who were Political Science students at Columbia when Obama was supposedly a Political Science major were contacted. NOT A SINGLE ONE remembers Obama. The reports from Obama stooges that he supposedly was at a certain school can't be verified because all the records have been sealed by Obama.

Why is that so difficult for you to understand?

Obama says he first met Ayers at a fund raiser in 1996. This has been shown to be a lie.

Almost all versions of Obama’s life have proved to be lies but some have yet to be proved because Obama has sealed all records of his life.

When some employees accessed some of Obama’s student loan records out of curiosity Obama’s attorney's immediately prosecuted them and threatened them with prison time. No honest, objective person has access to Obama’s records.
