>>> i-node doesn't have a clue as to the records a university holds on a student.

Actually, I do -- having both worked in the Student Services and Research divisions during my first Masters program (albeit, years ago) and having taught numerous university courses.

But all universities keep records as to financing so it could be determined whether he received any form of financial aid or student loans. Apparently, he was an excellent student so there is no reason to hide good academics, which nobody doubts. Obviously, he is trying to hide his financial arrangements. Why would he do that if what he has said is true.

Also, there is the fact that his financial disclosures have never included the student loans he claims to have received. And there is a statement from a close personal associate of the muslim benefactor who said that Obama's education was being financed by him. Why not just open the records and allow the public to know the facts?

He could even limit the disclosure to the financial records if he prefers to keep his academics separate.

HOWEVER, THERE IS ALSO THE IMPORTANT ISSUE OF THE MISSING THESIS ON THE COLD WAR, WHICH COULD BE HIGHLY RELEVANT. WHY DOESN'T HE ALLOW IT TO BE RELEASED?

For a man who is supposedly all about freedom of speech he sure does try to keep people from speaking a lot.

CJ, > i-node doesn't have a clue as to the records a university holds on a student.

Where did Obama go to high school? I'm sure we can pull up his "permanent record" and see how many times he served detention for sticking gum underneath the desk ...

By the way, I may be a conservative, but when it comes to issues of cultural diversity, I can be downright "liberal" ...
