Demand that Obama release his college records! Where is the media?
Why is it important to see Obama's college records? Because the media
has created fantasies around Obama on every issue. You should start dispelling them with the easiest one, i.e. the fantasy of Obama's "academic degrees and honors". Obama has been fighting desperately to block all access to his college records. Even his "academic paper" at Columbia mysteriously disappeared. The media just swallowed the official Obama's "academic degrees and honors" without checking his actual grades, his scores on standardized tests, his academic writings if any, etc. All the decisions to admit Obama to colleges, to give him "academic degrees and honors" were made by a few unknown individuals. Read about the racial turmoil at one college where he got his "academic honors". The race tensions seem to follow Obama wherever he goes. If Obama's college records fail to meet the requirements for legitimate academic degrees and honors then Obama will be declared an academic fraud. Maybe then the media will start vetting Obama on other issues. Then we will be able to address the biggest fantasies like Obama's "ability to solve" the financial crisis which requires making executive decisions. Obama never made a single real executive decision in his life! How will Obama be able to attract quality people if he has a long history of attracting and being attracted to the worst kind? Any Hollywood actor can read a teleprompter and memorize talking points written by secret handlers. If Obama gets elected and turns the United States into a war-torn country like Kenya then his college records will mysteriously leak, but then it could be too late. I am asking everybody to request at least one major news network to make it an election issue. Ask others to do the same. Since Obama has built his political career around his "academic degrees and honors", all his college records (complete set of grades, scores on standardized tests, etc) must be released. Keep in mind that Obama's supporters have saturated media outlets and internet bandwidth for the last two years with stories of Obama's "academic degrees and honors". Now they viciously attack those who want to see Obama's grades and scores on standardized tests. Obama's "academic degrees and honors" before checking his grades and his scores on standardized tests are like "good standing" of Enron or Fannie Mae before they collapsed. You would be surprised what racial accusations, threats, boycotts can do to academic integrity at US colleges!

After all, these things are published by educational institution on a regular basis. If he didn't do well academically, you would have heard it by now from the McCain people. Speaking of academics, consider our current "leader". His educational background was well known and he still got elected............ TWICE |

Do you not believe he lied about his academic achievements? He was president of the Harvard Law Review. Do you think this is something that would be possible for someone with George Bush's academic record? We know McCain finished near the bottom of his class at the USNA. I believe it was next to last. It would be a bit difficult to beat that, wouldn't it? Do you believe Obama isn't smarter than McCain or Bush? |

And did you realize Bush's grades were a little higher than Gore's? And for Obama. Smart in what way? He's very clever and has worked his way to the top by actually having very little experience and taking few actual positions. I'd like to know about his thesis because I'd like to know about his views that might be expressed in it. Why is he hiding it? What articles did he write for the Law Review? McCain has made little secret of his class standing at the Naval Academy which was a little above what you said but not much. He has also spoken about why his grades weren't higher. And the Naval Academy, unlike Harvard and many other schools, doesn't have grade inflation and does flunk people out. |

That was undergrad but I doubt if law school was much different. We have a friend who used to teach at Yale. He had to justify any C grades given to students. |

First you said "impossible" and now you back down? Over 90 percent? I doubt it. I would have to see evidence of that. You mentioned Yale. The class of 2008 was accepted at a rate of 9.9 percent of applicants. Additionally, a higher percentage of more intelligent people would apply to Yale. Do you think most people, who had successful academic careers before going to Yale would tend to be drop outs? Additionally, I suspect this is also true of Harvard. Also, the retention rates are higher now than they were when Obama attended. The schools are more selective now. So, you have doubts that Obama is intelligent? Compare Obama with Bush. Can you not tell there is a difference in intelligence? It's a bit harder with McCain, but Obama still appears to be brighter. |

I meant to give the impression of very difficult to flunk out rather than absolutely impossible. Anything is possible. And I'm not going to go back and research articles from years ago for you. You mentioned Yale. The class of 2008 was accepted at a rate of 9.9 percent of applicants. Additionally, a higher percentage of more intelligent people would apply to Yale. Do you think most people, who had successful academic careers before going to Yale would tend to be drop outs? Additionally, I suspect this is also true of Harvard. Also, the retention rates are higher now than they were when Obama attended. The schools are more selective now. They were pretty selective back then also. It isn't particularly easy to get into the service academies either and many who might otherwise be good candidates choose not to apply because o the obligations involved. At Ivy League schools, the grounds for separation are far different than at service academies. I doubt if students at non-military schools would be subject to expulsion for having sex in the dorms, for example. So, you have doubts that Obama is intelligent? Compare Obama with Bush. Can you not tell there is a difference in intelligence? It's a bit harder with McCain, but Obama still appears to be brighter. I think Obama is intelligent although I think his intelligence may in different areas than McCain's. However, I'm not sure how intelligent Obama is and that is a problem with affirmative action. How do we know if he would have gotten in on his own or not? However, what I said was that I wanted to see his college thesis. You turned it into a discussion of what his intelligence level is. That wasn't why I wanted to know about it. I would, however, be curious how he became editor of the Law Review without ever writing an article for it. That is what I have read. If that information can be shown incorrect, I'll stand corrected although when I have said it previously, nobody else has been able to do so. |
