Nope, not a word about where Obama was born.

An application is not a transcript.

What is contained in a transcript? Any idea?

If you realize the documentation which must be shown for a teaching job at the U of C Law and just to be admitted to the IL bar, then you would not have any questions about if Obama has a college transcript, if he showed it to an employer or if it contains anything he is trying to hide.

don't forget that she would have done this alone. state department records show that obama sr didn't leave the US between 1959 and 1964.

That' is what a transcript is for, after all.

Grades matter for your first job out of college, sure.

For anyone who has been in the professional workforce for more than 5 years - all they care about is work experience.

Also, this has nothing to do with our educational system or with accountability. Not sure where you're heading with that one.

Why didn't Romney release his?

Isn't that odd that it just so happens that the INS passenger flight records into Hawaii for the week of Obama's birth happens to be missing?

So what?

You honestly believe this young woman took a trans-Atlantic flight when she was nine months pregnant?

Really?

Shall we talk about how much it would have cost? How long it would have taken?
Or the fact that she didn't get her first passport until some years later?

Birtherism long ago became a refusal to exercise common sense.
Yeah.

This.

Well the earliest she would have traveled would have been 8 months. Seeing as she was still at UH till July of 1961 according to her classmates, teachers, and her school records.

Someone already broke it down:
New York Leftist: Obama Born In Kenya? No

In constant dollars? About $22,000 for that trip; in a time when the median salary in Honolulu, Hawaii for a full time worker was $14,000 per year. And she was a full time student.

OAS will then say, but but, the passport records before 1965 were all destroyed!! (which is true, due to shoddy archiving, and a fire way back when)
