Was Barack Obama A Foreign Exchange Student?
Investors Business Daily ^ | 08/09/2012 | Staff

Posted on 08/10/2012 5:48:14 AM PDT by matt1

Transparency: A former classmate has added a tantalizing question to the mysteries surrounding Barack Obama's college years. Perhaps the GOP nominee, whose tax records are demanded, should call the president's bluff.

Not many students whose grades supposedly were good enough to get into Harvard Law School can say that 400 of their classmates taken randomly don't remember a single thing about him or his even being there. But Barack Obama, Columbia University class of '83, can.

since the foreigner in the WH thinks it's OK to insist that romney's hiding some re his tax returns, this should give romney, trump, arpaio and everyone else complete license to demand the foreigner's papers ASAP!

Zer0 was never a student, except for learning communism.

Ask Obama to invite some of his old classmates to the White House for a social gathering....a reunion if you will.

It would explain a lot about why he is hiding his college records. It’s not about his grades. Even if they were poor, he could by now laugh it off. And if he were an affirmative action admission that isn’t that horrible, says more about the schools than about the mediocre student.

The only thing that would make him Look very bad, A felon, would be that he lied on his applications and entered as a foreign student.

Or worse, but tying up even more loose ends of his story (fake bc, fake selective service, phony ssnumber), he was a foreigner. Born in Canada, having only the Indonesian passport...

I am curious why the articles insert the word ‘exchange’ when addressing this issue? I have seen nothing to indicate that Obama was an exchange student, though there is much to suggest he was foreign.

This speculation (or likelihood) isn’t new news. It’s been around for years. I wonder if it is linked to the rumors about why Obama gave up his law license, some of which claim he lied about something on his bar application—like other names he’s been known by.

It would be consistent to couple these two rumors if he went by the name of Barry Soetero, an Indonesian exchange student during those years.

He clearly entered college claiming to be a foreign student in order to get special treatment. He duped the system.

His been propped up by lies and multiple nefarious people his whole life. No wonder he believes nobody achieves through their own merit.

Yes I too would like to know why the name change from Barry Soetero to Barack Obama. It doesn’t seem normal for someone to change their name unless they were trying to hide from something in their past.

Whatever the circumstances of his college years, he turned out to be an anti-American Marxist. Which, as someone noted, we knew in 2008.

The Media may make up a story about Romney being a bully in grade school ,but don’t look for them to find the truth about any Obama rumor.

Let’s assume all of the evidence was to prove that Obama is indeed ineligible for the office, which I do believe. Do you think the GOP would do anything at all about it? If so I would like some of what you’re smoking.

I find it odd that the same leftists that are so quick to pry into conservatives school histories to try to “prove” them to be idiots are completely not curious about why Obama needed to hide all of his school records.

Not a man-jack one of them . . . well, on second thought, a couple of them . . . miiiight . . . say West, Rand Paul, a couple others. But, it would be suicidal for them to do so.

The MSM would vilify them worse than any they have targeted so far. Every other word would be "racist" or "bigot. (with West it would "extremist views," "fringe group opinions," "over-the-top," etc.

///
!!! nailed it.
Occam’s Razor.
...ALL the anomolies are explained,
if Soetoro adopted him legally, etc.

...and he did go to Pakistan as a college student.
He went to Indonesia for over 3 months to write his book...
yet Obama himself said he didn’t have USA passport,
until he became senator.
