I wouldn't be surprised if his grades sucked when he was serving as editor of the law review.

JFK (and god knows how many others) had a pretty active private life even while president.

Honestly, I think the President - whoever it is - has so few islands of privacy that he likely fiercely defends those bits he can keep as his own. It's only human nature. In this case, "fiercely defending" consists of not giving permission to release records.

Ok, so his grades may have sucked, who cares. It is unlikely that is the case since he graduated *** Laude.

1960 is much different than 2012, just ask Bill Clinton.

I can understand keeping family matters private. Educational excellence is a different matter all together. It doesn't add up.

Wasn't that anonymous? You know that this won't sit with the anti-Obama conspiracy theorists.

Should have. No one should be leaking private records.

Not if his records at Harvard indicate he was a foreign exchange student.
