Correct. There is no conceivable way you could ever write anything of enough significance or value to merit publication in the Harvard Law Review (note the name of the journal).
Just a point of clarity.
The letter that Obama wrote about the policies of the Harvard Law Review was not published in the Review. It was a letter to the Harvard Law Record, which is the newspaper of the Harvard Law School. The Harvard Law Review is a scholarly publication, and such a letter would be inappropriate. The letter to the newspaper was not subjected to any editorial review before publication, as such letters to any newspaper's editorial staff generally are not (except to remove profanity). A letter to an editor, especially to a paper with such small circulation, would employ casual grammar, not the formal grammar that is required in more scholarly writing.
Oh good lord--now you're being ridiculous. There's nothing wrong with his writing skills
Wow. He wrote a sentence that doesn't even make sense in a letter to be published in the Harvard Law Record. You think there's nothing wrong with that?
Educational race to the bottom. How low can we go... It's a liberal thing, right?

Poor reading comprehension on your part. You can't even get the publication right when the name is directly in front of you.
"No editors on the Review will ever know whether any given editor was selected on the basis of grades, writing competition, or affirmative action, and no editors who were selected with affirmative action in mind."
There are two publications involved in this discussion.
No, there aren't. I posted Obama's very poorly written letter to the editor of the Harvard Law Record. HistorianDude can't read very well, so he incorrectly referred to the Harvard Law Review in his post.
Okay take the grammar police work to another thread. It has nothing to do with the OP's already debunked claim .
