Aren't kids mostly a shoe in to get admitted into an IVY league school that their parents went to?

Since you made the statement, what is the demographics accepted into Harvard. Anything to back that up?

Most blacks don't have the option of attending any private school, as Democrats keep blocking school vouchers.

But, nothing is too good for 0bama's kids.

She should release her SAT scores if she wants anyone to believe this was on merit.

Some of you keep going on and on about her admittance being because she is black or the daughter of the president. But the fact is, if she wasn't smart enough to attend harvard then she would have never applied there.

She deserves no credit to being born into a president's family. That is the ONLY reason she was accepted. The apologists for obama could not care less about anything other than trying to prop up this miserable manchild and his gimme family.

Barbara Bush got accepted into Yale. So you're saying the only reason she got in was because she was a president's daughter? I guess we propped up Bush and his gimme family as well....according to you

If her SAT score merited admittance, they would have been released rather than a guarded state secret. The fact remains that blacks can get admitted with much lower academic credentials than whites or Asians....should they?

Malia is following in the footsteps of Barack and Michelle of getting into prestigious universities based on marking X on the black color bar.

Malia seems like a nice young girl and Obama a good doting Father, I just don't buy that she has great academic credentials when the system in place is so biased on racial preferences.

As you can see here, folks, Stormfront breeds hatred and ignorance.

It's pathetic that a bunch of grown people can't handle a black child getting accepted into Harvard.

I refer to that as Stormfront-brain.
