RE: Trump Refuses to Back Down Over Obama's 'Very Strange' Birth
Google. There's tons. The links I provided had plenty of mentions and stories about his time there, I'm not a librarian. You clearly know how to read and use the internet, I'm not going to do a basic internet search for you.
I was replying to your original post, if you want to rephrase it to something like, "it's hard to find out what his political leanings were at the time he was in Law School," that's a different subject.
You said was people don't remember him and they don't have stories about them. There clearly are stories about his time there, tons, and people certainly remember him as he is married to one of them, and a large group of his classmates are working with him to this day. He's actually applauded in one of the articles for being the classmate who kept in touch with everyone. Which is basically the exact opposite of what you tried to say.
Maybe you just didn't phrase your comments well. If you meant what you said originally, I don't know what to else to say but you're clearly wrong.

The links you gave are like hundreds of other articles I've read--fawning fluff pieces, with little or no insight into Obama the person. He comes across as some sort of cool, detached, almost surrealistic personna, instead of a real person. I'm not particularly talking about political leanings, I'd just like to read something that says, "I knew him as a real person, and here is what the real person is like." I don't get that from these articles.
Maybe it goes back to reading his books where he talks very openly about selecting his friends based on what they could do for him, and creating this personna that he thought would appeal to those who could do something for him. If I were coming from where he came from, I might be the same way, but there just doesn't seem to be much genuineness. A lot of his mannerisms and expressions and speech patterns remind me of street hustlers (with whom I've had some experience through work and through church), and obviously genuine is the last thing most of them want to be.
I don't think this is going to get very far, so I don't see much point in continuing. If you think those articles really provide insight, then so be it.

or...If the Neocons had not set the country up to be able to elect a community organizer as POTUS. Actions have consequences. This one was a doozy.

At this point I could care less about any of these issues. What is important is making this clown a one term POTUS. His record alone is damning enough to make that happen. Its his RECORD stupid!!!

Yeah, sure. That's what the left wants us all to believe.
You don't know that, you have no way of knowing that, and neither does anybody else.
I certainly don't buy the wilder conspiracies. But I do wonder why there is a very apparent effort to hide basic information that we have gotten on previous candidates--not birth certificates, that's a non-issue with me, but things like transcripts.
There's either something to hide or there isn't. If there's nothing to hide, why hide it? If there's something to hide, we need to know it.
What really frustrates me is that no prior candidate could have gotten by without disclosing this sort of stuff. The media would have crucified him. But in this case all we've gotten from the media is a fawning, slobbering love affair.
I guess I would feel better if Obama were someone that I felt was trustworthy. But every time he moves his lips, I think he's lying. The truth is whatever it needs to be today for him to get his way, and if that changes tomorrow, then he'll just move the truth. Typical street hustler. And again, the media lets him off scott free. I just don't understand it.

The majority of the media outlets showed cowardice(or fear) in questioning the first legitimate non caucasian candidate's credentials. I think they simply were afraid that it would have been seen as racist...(which is not true) They failed to do the job that the founders believed was theirs....that is to be the watchdog of government.

On that we agree110%. The LameStreamMedia failed America. They contributed to many uninformed voters who were just concerned with the historic nature of America electing a black man with a Muslim sounding name.

Not looking for dirt. Looking for accomplishments.... and Like winning the Nobel Prize, I'm more interested in the accomplishments that lead to the award rather than the award itself.
Harvard Law Review = good grades. So where are they? Why would you hide something you should be proud of?? How about some position papers??
Peer reviews/comments... low on substance. Didn't know him well... hard to pin down. Someone mentioned Michelle, yet aren't we having trouble reading HER dissertation as well?
The only reason the BC matters to me is that it fits a long pattern of half-truths.... and from someone who promised transparency.

Do some damned research before you make a fool of yourself any more. Geez!
And sorry, newsmax, drudge and worst off all Orly Taitz and WND do not constitute research!
