Now, would you parade your grandmother with CANCER around on a campaign trail? REALLY.....

Sick and ailing parents and grandparents SHOULD NEVER HAVE TO BE EXPOSED TO THE STRESS OF A PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN.

Jenny, those school records are NOT PUBLIC RECORDS. Obama didn't have to have them "sealed" nor did he have them "sealed." He is just not releasing personal private records. SCHOOL RECORDS ARE NOT PUBLIC RECORDS. Check out public records laws. For whatever reason, McCain and Palin MAY HAVE SIGNED LIMITED RECORDS RELEASE FORMS. Can you provide any link or documentation which shows the full and complete school records for McCain and Palin....including grades, papers they wrote, and how they paid for college?

What if your local newspaper, or the newspaper from your hometown, wanted access to all your private, personal school records, including all financial aspects of your school records? Would you sign a records release form which would allow those records to be published in your hometown?

Jenny, watch out for those birfer threads...........so much of that information is speculation and intended to create fear and parnoia amongst people so that people will DONATE MONEY to the so-called attorneys pursuing that scam.

Fox News believed he had student loans.

You "tend to think he had a source of funding." How about finding some verifiable documentation to support that allegation.

Oh really?

Well, first of all remember he was only in Hawaii for 2 yrs. until his Mom ditched his drunk Dad and ran off to Indonesia to be with another man.

Then his Mom sends him back to Hawaii when he is about 8 to be raised by his Grandmother who was a VICE PRESIDENT of Bank Of Hawaii. His "Typical White person" Grandmother sent him to Punahou. The most elite school in Hawaii.

He went there from 8-18 yrs old. Now I have no idea when the "food stamps" that he claimed he was on came into being since there was no such thing when the Mom was there with the first husband. Then it was started up as an experimental program later but Obama was already there with his Vice President Grandmother and attending Punahou.

Here, take a look at the tuition of Punahou and see if you think Obama is just like you and me. This is his grade school and his high school.
Punahou: Tuition and Payment (look on the 6th line)
His Grandmother may have helped him apply/get into that school. But you are only assuming that she paid the tuition. Based on his mother's income, isn't it possible that he would have qualified for a scholarship or some type of financial aid? And if that was the case, he and his mom may also have been eligible for food stamps at that time....

Boarding Schools and elite private schools take several students on scholarship every year. I know quite a few people who attended some elite schools that way... and it looks that the school Obama attended has several options for low-income students.

Punahou: Spring 2007 (http://www.punahou.edu/page.cfm?p=601 - broken link)

Quote:
Expressing Punahou's pride, President James K. Scott '70 says, "Senator Obama is a manifestation of our hope for students - that they lead productive and fulfilled lives that allow them to improve the world." Obama attended Punahou with the help of financial aid, and Scott underscored the importance of that program. "Our hope is to reach out to students who possess high personal and academic promise, but who have low economic opportunity," Scott notes. "He embodies that aspiration."
Quote:
Punahou, which sits on 76 acres at Wilder Avenue and Punahou Street, has an endowment valued at $180 million, which it uses to help cover costs beyond what student tuition covers. It also is used to provide financial aid to approximately 415 students, 11 percent of its enrollment.
It's pretty easy to find this information with a quick google search before making assumptions...

so many posters here do not want obama to be a normal american, they turn a blind eye to the truth and prefer to believe, and continue to contribute to all the BS out there. I guess he must be one scary man to these people if they are still talking about his birth certificate, his faith, his granny, his wife, his dog and his man boobs, not to mention him wanting to take our counrty back to the stone age and reverse all our rights. all of the objections other than political are just a smoke screen for the real reason the fear.

Ummm, someone asked a question about it. I am not parading his sick grandmother around, he is the one who elected to only mention her at the times during the campaign that it served him best.

Austin,

I have no idea how the news channels got Palin's info or Mc Cain's, but they had it. You have to remember hearing about it on TV over and over. McCain's grades and how poorly he did, etc. You didn't hear that? They left no stone unturned.

I would just think that Obama would want people to see his records since he is so brilliant. We also never got to see his medical records. He only released a note from Oprah's Dr saying he was fit to run for office. Yet the media was digging through Mc Cain's taling about his cancerous mole and talking about Sarah's births. They wanted to prove Trigg wasn't hers. But yet Obama didn't have to show his.

I just think it was very odd.

Don't worry about me donating to any websites. I am just a bit brighter then you might think, but thanks for looking out after me

Paint it any color rose you want, and make excuses for him all day long. Fact is, he hides information from the public and was so anxious to be elected he went to great lengths to snow us all.

His birthplace has never been sufficiently verified.

He only removed himself and his family from that controversial church AFTER people got so far into the atmosphere of it he couldn't support it and his run for the White House at the same time. Had it never come into question, he would have never left and would still be listening to that crap they spew out there. AND AGREEING WITH IT AND TEACHING HIS CHILDREN THAT HOGWASH.

He has no experience and couldn't come up with anything that would qualify him to be president.

There are lots of things that are very questionable about B Obama, but one thing is for sure; he is definately not "like one of us".

What does he have to hide in his school records? Makes one wonder.
