Obama’s Former Classmate: The Real Obama Scandal Is at Columbia
Posted by Jim Hoft on Tuesday, August 7, 2012, 5:24 AM
Why does Barack Obama continue to hide his college transcripts?
Conservative activist says the real Obama scandal is at Columbia.
Wayne Allyn Root at The Blaze reported:
Obama has won several elections in his career by slandering his opponents and leaking sealed documents. Not only do these insinuations and leaks ruin the credibility and reputation of Obama’s opponents, they keep them on the defensive and off Obama’s trail of sealed documents.
By attacking Romney’s tax records, Obama’s socialist cabal creates a problem that doesn’t exist. Is the U.S. Senate Majority Leader making up stories out of thin air? You decide. But the reason for this baseless attack is clear- make Romney defend, so not only is he “off message” but it helps the media ignore the real Obama scandal.
My answer for Romney? Call Obama’s bluff.
Romney should call a press conference and issue a challenge in front of the nation. He should agree to release more of his tax returns, only if Obama unseals his college records. Simple and straight-forward. Mitt should ask “What could possibly be so embarrassing in your college records from 29 years ago that you are afraid to let America’s voters see? If it’s THAT bad, maybe it’s something the voters ought to see.” Suddenly the tables are turned. Now Obama is on the defensive.
My bet is that Obama will never unseal his records because they contain information that could destroy his chances for re-election. Once this challenge is made public, my prediction is you’ll never hear about Mitt’s tax returns ever again.
Why are the college records, of a 51-year-old President of the United States, so important to keep secret? I think I know the answer.
If anyone should have questions about Obama’s record at Columbia University, it’s me. We both graduated (according to Obama) Columbia University, Class of ’83. We were both (according to Obama) Pre-Law and Political Science majors. And I thought I knew most everyone at Columbia. I certainly thought I’d heard of all of my fellow Political Science majors. But not Obama (or as he was known then- Barry Soetoro). I never met him. Never saw him. Never even heard of him. And none of the classmates that I knew at Columbia have ever met him, saw him, or heard of him.
But don’t take my word for it. The Wall Street Journal reported in 2008 that Fox News randomly called 400 of our Columbia classmates and never found one who had ever met Obama.
Now all of this mystery could be easily and instantly dismissed if Obama released his Columbia transcripts to the media. But even after serving as President for 3 1/2 years he refuses to unseal his college records. Shouldn’t the media be as relentless in pursuit of Obama’s records as Romney’s? Shouldn’t they be digging into Obama’s past–beyond what he has written about himself–with the same boundless enthusiasm as Mitt’s?

Romney: You show me yours, I’ll show you mine.

We are at the precipice. Something is going to happen soon, what that will be is anyone’s idea. Another shocking revelation, another “manufactured crisis”. Something big is going to kick this wide open, you can feel it in the air. If you look at the events over the last 3.5 years, it is almost like this country is being prepped for an invasion.

And to Harry Reid: ” As soon as you pass a budget, I will release more tax files”
rangerrebew commented:
Find out when, or if, he stopped chooming, too. Also ask why he, as a “Constitutional Scholar” has chosen to ignore it so often. Have him explain why he attacks the wealthy when he is so wealthy. Find out why Romney’s wealth is such a big deal when Lurch Kerry’s wasn’t when he was a candidate for POTUS. See if he can explain why two people who won’t release their tax returns, Nazi Pelosi and Harry Reid, think it is such a big deal Romney won’t release his. Just a few more suggestions.
Militant conservative commented:
Obama will lose in a landslide.
Gregory commented:
Read the whole document. It provides a very clear proposal as to the method of funding Obama college years
Conservative to the Core commented:
Even the RINOs aren’t supporting Romney. They are throwing the election to Obama and will blame the Tea Party.
Chillguy33 commented:
While Obama was “at” Columbia, was he also a citizen of Indonesia?
StrangernFiction commented:
Mitt actually fight back? That’s funny. The choice of John McCain to speak at the convention should clue in the conservatives who still haven’t figured it out (pssst *speaking very softly* it isn’t about R vs. D).
“I think [Obama] is great.” – Matt Romney
GotFreedom commented:
The “I’ll show you mine if you show me yours” should be asserted by all the American people as well. Have you been targeted by the feds to fill out the “American Community Survey”? Unlike the Census, which is sent to every home in every community, state, across the country, the ACS is sent to govt selected residences even if you filled out your 2010 census.
We’d like to ask, why should we be required to provide the govt with personal info about our home/lifestyle when Barrack Hussein Obama hasn’t provided the American people with all his personal info? When he releases ALL his info, then come back and see us, until then, have a nice day and stay out of our lives!

#7 you have no clue
Stan commented:
The problem no one mentions is why would Columbia ever want to release his true records. Why would they want to destroy the myth of their first alumnus to be President? It would reflect poorly on them, especially if it was revealed that he was accepted there with poor SAT scores and grades from Occidental only to perform poorly in his classes at Columbia.
Obviously, Columbia would not want to destroy the original records (which would consist of SAT scores, Occidental grades, and Columbia grades) in order to get favors from Obama when he’s out of office, but if they do release anything, why would one believe they were anything other than forgeries? Plus, even the forgeries would have to reflect mediocre grades because they still have to fit the few facts we know, such as that Obama didn’t graduate Columbia with any honors.
But I agree with the article that something more sinister must be included in this record, otherwise Columbia would have released a forged B/B+ report card by now to douse the flames.
CV1 commented:
I agree, #7 ought to go out and find a clue.
Obama is evil. Columbia knows it, but Columbia has priorities.
Patty commented:
The media should have done its job in Campaign 08. The L.A. Tapes, think about that.
It was too late in 08, Obama was elected. Now, 3 1/2 years later we are talking about Obama’s concealing records, Holder concealing records.
America is in trouble, leaks in D.C. but none about Obama. Nation’s security at risk. Other nation’s don’t want to work with us because of leaks. Yet, Leaks or anything about Obama, concealed, covered up. And I don’t believe we will ever know until these cons, crooks and liar are out of Washington. And maybe not even then.

Conservative to the Core commented:
Many prominent RINOs have called on Romney to release his tax records (George Will, Ron Paul, Rick Perry, Haley Barbour, Matthew Dowd, etc) but none have called on Obama to release his college records. Why is that?
Patty commented:
Liberal media and the voters who will vote for Obama, anyway, they don’t care.
But more voters in last election are switching their vote for Obama are going to vote for Romney than vice versa.
chuck in st paul commented:
Much like that fake birth certificate Hawaii came up with, I expect a ‘dual citizenship’ document of some sorts to magically appear.
tennismom commented:
Someone needs to ‘find’ a credible Columbia transcript for Oby showing low test scores, lousy grades & foreign status. That might force the issue by forcing Columbia to produce the real one.
A nice project for a patriotic document artist.
