Scholarships and food stamps made things NOT hard for him.

Did he really get a scholarship to Punahou, the most expensive prep school in HA? If so, how and on what basis?

You can't depict someone who went to an elite prep school free and then to Columbia and Harvard Law as deprived and overcoming that deprivation. I didn't go to any such school. I don't even know anyone personally who did, much less who went free. Neither I nor my family has ever received any aid for anything. And I never expect to.

The truth is Obama is a product of an elite and privileged background. The privilege didn't come from his parents having money so it may be a mystery as to where it came from. But the priviliege is undeniable.
