Those who knew Obama in his university days claim that he couldn’t be persuaded to study history.It appears the reason might have to do with the fact that western historical accounts differ from the historical mythology of the muslim world.
Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God; and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world. 1 John 4:1-3
Hey, he was a Poli Sci major. History and Economics weren't on his "required" curriculum. Besides, they might require some serious work, and he surely could not be bothered with that. After all, he had autobiographies to write!
That's my take on him. Too much time caterwalling "the most beautiful sound in the world".
Obama may have been enrolled at Columbia but did he even attend classes?
Fox News contacted some 400 of his classmates and found no one who remembered him.
Wayne Allyn Root, the Libertarian Party’s vice president, told WND he graduated from Columbia the same day as Obama with the same major, yet he never spoke to a single former Columbia student or faculty member who remembered Obama.
