Did the Washington Post do background check into President Obama's college years? (Reagan, military)

[Wendell Phillips]

Barack Obama's college records are not relevant to his eligibility to be president; and they are protected under federal privacy laws. See The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) (20 U.S.C. § 1232g; 34 CFR Part 99).

I can guarantee you that he's doing a helluva lot better than you are.

............. and why Obama.............


1. attended Ivy League schools with no visible means of support

2. Was able to attend Ivy League schools, despite admitting he was a "poor student"

3. smoked weed and used cocaine

4. had close associations with known communists

5. will not release his transcripts

6. classmates do not remember seeing him

7. U of Chicago faculty said he was lazy and incompetent as a faculty member


Gee- I think the Obama story would be far more interesting.

Says who? How do you know this?

2. Was able to attend Ivy League schools, despite admitting he was a "poor student"

He got in and he got out. Can you say the same?

3. smoked weed and used cocaine

As did George W. Bush.

4. had close associations with known communists

Big freaking deal.

5. will not release his transcripts

He doesn't have to.

6. classmates do not remember seeing him

Harvard and Columbia are really big schools. Nobody is going to meet everyone in their class - much less remember them.

7. U of Chicago faculty said he was lazy and incompetent as a faculty member

Anyone can say anything about anybody. Big deal.

Gee- I think the Obama story would be far more interesting.

My comments above.

The question is, what difference does it make? So, Obama graduated. What did that get us? He's a dumb ass.

Walker's record as Governor speaks for itself. I couldn't care less about why he quit college. How is that a liability? Obama's college record (or lack thereof) and his associations are more of a liability, and yet people still voted for him. They didn't care. Why does this bunch care now? Because Walker is a Republican who fought the Unions.

What has Obama's record got to do with Scott Walker and vice- versa?

I do not have that knowledge, but this article doesnt tell us what Walkers was either nor has any presidential nominee in the last 20 years released their own college transcript.

If you read his books, it might actually answer some of the questions you have.

Who said it was a liability? the article actually paints the man in a flattering light talking about all his triumphs in politics. It talks about him carrying a women 8 blocks to the hospital after she got hurt.

Did you read the article ??????

Can't do much worse than the current politicians we have with a degree.
