| | | But, but, but, GZ, obama, the half-black man WAS discriminated against because of the color of his skin. He was given every advantage that many under-privileged white kids can only dream about. And every advantage he was given was taken away from someone else.
1. He attended Punahou School, an elite private school in Honolulu, beginning in grade five when he left Indonesia. Even though he spent high school in a drug-induced fog, he immediately got into college in L.A.
2. So when did the grandparents stop paying for his education? They were not wealthy! After finishing high school, he attended Occidental College (Los Angeles) for two years.
3. He then went to two Ivy League Schools. First Columbia University in New York, where he finished his Bachelor's degree in 1983 -- in Political Science.
4. The story goes that he worked mostly as a community organizer for the next 8 years and then went to Harvard Law School, where he "earned" a JD (law degree) in 1991.
5. Then he was elected Senator from Illinois, where he belonged to some "black caucus" group. Are there any "white caucus" groups?
6. Then he was elected POTUS based on 96% of black voters and a large number of elitist, but stupid, whites who wanted to vote for the first "black" president and pay their debt for some perceived wrong they did to blacks.
INTERESTING EXCERPTS: (Isn't it amazing how things just kept getting better and better for Obama who had almost no visible means of support, but had many real connections to America-hating terrorists.)
So how did Barack Obama fare in college?It’s unclear how well he did as an undergraduate, although he was not a distinguished student. Obama refuses to release his transcript from his undergraduate years. According to an article in the Wall Street Journal, Obama was not well-known among classmates after he transferred to Columbia University from Occidental College in the early 1980s. The article quotes a former roommate who states that Obama’s performance improved after he stopped taking drugs (which Obama has admitted to openly). Since Obama did not graduate with honors, that means his GPA was between a 2.0 and a 3.3 — although, since he was admitted to Harvard Law School, it’s hard to imagine his GPA was much lower than a 3.3.
Obama graduated from Columbia in 1983 with a degree in political science. He specialized in international relations.
Law school was another story for Obama. He graduated magna cum laude from Harvard Law School (the second highest honor available) in 1991. He also was the first black president of the Harvard Law Review, a very prestigious honor. |
