Trump Can’t Fathom How ‘Terrible Student’ Obama Got Into Ivy League Schools

video
» 81 comments

Same song, slightly different lyrics: Donald Trump is trying to take a new talking point out for a spin, telling the Associated Press that he thinks there might be something shady at play behind President Barack Obama‘s acceptances into Ivy League schools:

I heard he was a terrible student, terrible. How does a bad student go to Columbia and then to Harvard? I’m thinking about it, I’m certainly looking into it. Let him show his records.

The President transferred to Columbia University from Occidental College, and later attended Harvard Law. Despite revealing in his memoir, 1995′s Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance, that he wasn’t “always” a good student, Obama graduated magna cum laude from Harvard Law, in addition to becoming the prestigious Harvard Law Review’s first black president.

But Trump, apparently, remains unconvinced:

I have friends who have smart sons with great marks, great boards, great everything and they can’t get into Harvard. We don’t know a thing about this guy. There are a lot of questions that are unanswered about our president.

The would-be Republican candidate said he’s “looking into” Obama’s education.

    Its amazing. I can’t fathom how he got into the law review, even though their criteria is very high.

  • black and WHITE

    It’s simple…two words ” Affirmative Action “, Jackson got the alleged president’s pump clad foot in the American Academia door.

    I believe the reason he keeps his school dayz records also hidden away in Al Gore’s lock box is because he recieved special consideration for free ride scholarships based solely on his African, foreign exchange student statis listed on his applications.

    Well, it’s official. Trump’s purpose here is nothing more than to drive independent voters into the arms of Obama and Four More Years of Cass Sunstein…

    There is one thing that EVERYONE can agree with and that’s if Obama graduated magna cum laude he wouldn’t be sealing his records. No way in hell would Obama pass up an opportunity to strut his stuff, if he had stuff to strut.

    There is something to the transcripts issue -remember John Kerry ran as a Navy veteran and as an intellectual superior to that idiot George Bush.He claimed he had produced all his Navy records but in fact he had not .After the election it turned out that the records revealed that in fact his grades at Yale were worse than Bush’s.Is there some reasom the worlds smartest man won’t release his grades?

  • LOGICandREASON

    I’m beginning to get more interested in The Donald, and I really hope he brings lots of legitimate issues about Obama to light even if he is not nominated as the Republican candidate.

    McCain was a spineless weasel who deserved to loose,and some of the most stupid/irritating things he did was having to apologize on behalf of his supporters who addressed(called) his opponent by a name he carries in his US Passport or mentioned his ties with domestic terrorist Bill Ayers. How can a RINO candidate be so politically correct and apologize not for himself but for HIS SUPPORTERS who call Obama Barack Hussien Obama, yet he carries that name in his passport and was sworn in with that name having the last laugh.

    As I said McCain deserved to loose for not fighting like a fearless man who understood his opponent had almost the entire media and special interest groups behind him. Sarah Palin had more guts but was silenced by the Republican establishment throughout the campaign.- Go read Going Rugue

    This Commander-in-Chief would not even pass a simple background check for enlistment into the FBI or CIA yet he now sits with defacto authority over both institutions and is the head of the world’s greatest country. The media deliberately ignored very critical questions into his past; and the issues raised by ONLY the conservative media were quickly swept under the carpet by the liberal mainstream media who actually marketed candidate Obama to the American people and succeeded in fooling the ignorant voters.

    No other presidential candidate, Republican and perhaps Democrat with a similar history, would ever go beyond the primaries or even be considered as a prospective candidate in the first place after the initial scrutiny by the media.

    Who is really in Charge of the US government and pulls the strings? Only those not paying close attention would think Obama makes his decisions based on his own convictions.

  • mitchflorida

    It’s called Affirmative Action.

  • Harry Flashman

    Ah, now we get to the meat of the act.

    The birth certificate issue is a side show. Why his college records are sealed and why we have nothing in writing from the much touted Editor of the Harvard Law Review and why he has a Conneticut social security number when he never lived in the state….THESE are questions that need answering.

    What do those college records show?

    Where is his written, published work at the law review?

    The social security number should have every journalist out there with their ears perked up and their nose in the wind like a Pointer.

    If the media spent one tenth of ther energy actually investiagting this guy that they spend trashing Sarah Palin we’d have some answers. And here’s some sad news for the left….answers will come now. The genie is out of the bottle. And when they come, it ain’t gonna be pretty.

    Exposing Obama to public scrutiny will be Trump’s crowning achievement. There are advantages to being a complete whack-job but being rich enough to do whatever you want to do. He’ll never be president, but he just may bring one down.

    Hey, Politico…how ’bout a story on “exposing” that social security number like you just “exposed” Sarah Palin?

    http://www.americanthinker.com/2011/04/the_chord_donald_trump_strikes.html

    Sentient observers have known since Election Day 2008 that Barack Obama is the pinnacle affirmative-action statement. Mickey Kaus finally came right out and said this in the Daily Caller, while parrying Jay Cost’s column on Obama’s outright failure at American politics:

    Cost doesn’t go into why Obama managed to get to the top of politics without being all that good at it. The answer is distressingly obvious: Obama’s the biggest affirmative action baby in history. When other pols are trying, failing, learning, while climbing up the middle rungs of the ladder, he got a pass.

    Well, of course, he got a pass. Actually Obama got far more than a pass. He was allowed by an ideologically-driven, white-guilt-motivated media to hop, skip, and jump his way to the pinnacle of world power without ever producing one single shred of verifiable evidence that he could do anything whatsoever but run his full-of-utter-BS mouth — even that, constantly enabled by a teleprompter. And Republicans winked and nodded and permitted the whole Orwellian spectacle due to their fear of being forever outcast as racists.

    Lou Sarah quotes what I assume to be a Trumpism while comparing him to the KKK:

    “– “I get along great with the blacks”….”

    Even the “clean and articulate” ones with “no negro dialect”? Maybe he should be “bringing coffee”. Gee, I wonder which KKK members said all that?

    Stop with the race card, lefies. You’re only making fools of yourselves.

    Getting onto Law Review is based on either 1) 1L grades or 2) selection as a “write-on” candidate. Obama was a “write-on,” as I recall from a section in his first book. At the time, Harvard Law was in turmoil over allegations of discrimination against giving tenure to black law professors. By and large, 1L classes are in required courses. All law school grades are pretty subjective and are based on a curve. If his 1L classes were not adequate for Law Review, his grades were not in the top part of his class.

  • TillieGlockenspiel

    justanotherconservative said:

    See my post and/or ask any lawyer how one gets onto Law Review- any school. The write-on thing was instituted at law schools nationwide after there were lots of complaints that Law Review selection was unfair to minorities.

    Just one exposed document will bring the entire Obama empire full of lies and deceit to come tumbling down…and along with him will be the lame stream media.

  • TfT

    Trump asking the questions the mainstream media refuses to ask of Obama, but not afraid to ask of any other individual. What do they know and when did they know it?

    The whole AC protection of hehimself last night was kind of funny; I have never seen him offer that kind of defense to any otehr cdandidate or sitting President. AC jumped all over the NG story about W, and never defended him against the Dan Rather made up stuff. Nope, W is a republican, so AC went right along with the slander, just like he has gone along with the slander of the Palin’s, despite factual evidence against said slander.

    AC picks his battles….and he always fights for the democrat side.

  • Sean68

    The embarrassment, undoubtedly, is that releasing Obama’s grades and test scores will reveal that Obama’s grades and test scores wouldn’t have gotten him into HLS were he whites. HLS has an interest in keeping this info secret as well. If white people knew just how profound racial preferences are, they’d be shocked.

    No it wasn’t. It was his charisma and his vision for the future of America.

    Whether or not he actually followed through on that vision during his presidency is debatable, but you are seriously over-exaggerating how important his grades were to the people’s decision to elect him as the President of the United States.

    The point that Trump is making effectively is that we know very little of substance about Obama. The media portrayed him in ways that have proved not to be true. Just one instance is in their portrayal of him as a “Constitutional scholar and law professor.” Obama is no “constitutional scholar”- he took Constitutional law when he was in law school. He was NOT a “professor”- he was a lecturer who taught the basic Con Law class.

    Actually, law school grades can be “gifts.” No professor who values their job at HLS was going to give a “B” to someone with Obama’s background who was on Law Review. Grades are subjective in law school AND they are on a curve. His 1L grades weren’t good enough to get on Law Review, so I wonder what his 2L and 3L classes were, who taught those classes and what were his grades. Too bad no one can ever get to see his blue books.

    Here’s how: AFFIRMATIVE ACTION SPECIAL TREATMENT – which let him in and rejected BETTER ACADEMICALLY QUALIFIED CANDIDATES because they were not the PREFERRED COLOR to meet an arbitrary QUOTA. AFFIRMATIVE ACTION is the lunatic-left d-crat socialist endorsed formed of DISCRIMINATION. IT IS WRONG and IT IS DESPICABLE.

    Now, isn’t that the American Way: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal…” — with the addendum provided by the lunatic-left — “…except when PREFERENCE is given for those who always vote for d-crat socialists.”

    FYI: Once again, Arizona leads the nation in stopping d-crat socialist extremism with its Proposition 107 that was on the ballot for Nov 2010, and was overwhelmingly approved by the voters. Prop 107 OUTLAWS Affirmative Action Special Treatment for anybody. It “Prohibits the state from granting preferential treatment to or discriminating against any person or group on the basis of race, sex, color, ethnicity or national origin.”

    Guess which group was adamantly OPPOSED to Prop 107? Yep, you guessed it: the National Association for the Advancement of (Socialist) Colored People! (Naturally, those racist Tea Partiers supported it.)

    After playing a clip of Trump telling a Tea Party audience to forget George Soros, Beck said, “Why is Donald Trump so eager to forget about George Soros? Could be he just thinks this is nonsense? After taking a dig at Mike Huckabee, Beck continued, “So a lot of people think that George Soros is nothing to worry about, Donald Trump. Donald Trump took investment money from George Soros to build the Trump Tower in Chicago.”

    Beck pointed out that Trump hangs out the same circles as Soros, “However they donate to the same candidates and entities such as DSCC. In December 2009, The New York Post mentioned a private party hosted by Nouriel Roubini including Oliver Stone, George Soros, and Donald Trump.” The Beck crew pointed out that Trump keeps interesting company for a Tea Party candidate…Anybody else find it odd that he would say let’s get off of George Soros, because he’s at the money level and power player enough to know how much that kind of money can make a difference.”

    I heard he was a terrible student, terrible. How does a bad student go to Columbia and then to Harvard? I’m thinking about it, I’m certainly looking into it. Let him show his records.

    He heard? Really? Oh and by looking into it, you mean the way you sent your “investigators” to hawaii? How did that turn out?

    Hey liberals, you said George. W. Bush was a C-student, fine, so how come we can’t see Obama’s grades? Was he also a C student? D student perhaps?http://libertarians4freedom.blogspot.com/

    He was president of the harvard law review. PRESIDENT of it. Not a dumb C student like bush. Like I said, the donald could care less about any of this, but like this idiot, there are some who actually believes that tripe.

    Its not even hidden anymore.

    More Trump Racism! He attacks Obama even though Obama graduated from Harvard Law School magna cum laude and was editor of the law school’s law review, the most prestigious honor any law student could receive. Trump is stirring up racial hatred for his own profit. He is an evil man.

    How do you know he graduated from Harvard? Have you seen his records? Has anyone? Seems not. So, we only have Obama’s word that he has all these degrees but nothing is for sure, he has not proved on thing about his past except that he is a Liar and has no Honor or Integrity, otherwise, he would show his records instead of letting good military officers go to prison. No, Obama is a Snake in the Grass and I consider him to be America’s Greatest Enemy. After serving Presidents Nixon thru daddy Bush, it would be a cold day in hell before I would serve under this Horrible Excuse of a Leader, Obama! God Bless America and rid us of this Evilness now sitting in the Oval Office!

    ALLEN WEST 2012! A proven Leader, Patriot, and a Real Born American with a REAL BC that he will happily show America, unlike the Snake, Obama!

    Since Industry in general or should I say Big Money never does their own dirty work. Have you noticed Big Money spokesmen never show up on TV or in real life? They don’t agree and they don’t disagree, they pay big money to others who are bold enough to give their phony speeches and dirty tricks to get their work done. It has been that way since the beginning of time because most people will do anything for a dollar, some will do it for the thrill of the rush it gives them. I hope Donald Trump is not one of those, but he does like money and he says a lot of dumb things.

    Barack Obama is so damn stupid he’s going to do himself in with that big fat mouth of his, you libs wait and see.

    He is a racist and he’s ready to crack.

    One of these days when it’s not a bullshit propaganda trick, the mike will be left on and the true community organizing, front row sittin for 20 years in a honky hatin church, get in the back seat white boy, Latino’s have to join with me to kill our enemy ( whity ) Barack Hussein Obama will come out into the sunlight for the very first time.

    After that day, not having a valid American birth certificate will be the least of his problems.

    It’s only a matter of time and O’Keefe getting to the right pissed off gay person in Obama’s entourage to leave the mike on.

    There’s no way you’re an actual person. Even the most conservative people I know (I live in Georgia) would never resort to such generalizations.

    “Wizard of Oz: Why, anybody can have a brain. That’s a very mediocre commodity. Every pusillanimous creature that crawls on the Earth or slinks through slimy seas has a brain. Back where I come from, we have universities, seats of great learning, where men go to become great thinkers. And when they come out, they think deep thoughts and with no more brains than you have. But they have one thing you haven’t got: a diploma. “

    “Wizard of Oz: They have one thing you haven’t got: a diploma. Therefore, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Universitartus Committiartum E Pluribus Unum, I hereby confer upon you the honorary degree of ThD.
    Scarecrow: ThD?
    Wizard of Oz: That’s… Doctor of Thinkology. ”

    Thank goodness, we, in the U.S., finally have our own “Doctor of Thinkology!”

    The Donald (is that the name of the creature on top his head?) is evidently forgetting that when ones parent(s) attend a college, a child can generally follow in their footsteps as a legacy. You know- like Bush to Yale and McCain to the Navel Academy? Barack Obama the first graduated from Harvard. Remember? So why would it be a surprise his son went to school there? President Obama also graduated Magna Cum Laude, which in case Trumpet doesn’t know, that is an honor only bestowed on those with not only a high GPA but who has also taken extra credit classes, so the president evidently did quite well in that area. Of course theres the fact that his fellow students elected him to be the first black president of the Harvard Law Review. I guess that was a trial run so to speak, for the job that he now holds as the first black President of the United States of America. Seems to me that Barack Hussein Obama II has done more with his life at a younger age than the Donald has done. The President got rich through his OWN efforts (didn’t have rich parents), he worked in his community to help the less fortunate. graduated with a BA and then a JD, was a professor, became an author, elected to his states Senate, the US Senate and then to the Presidency. He married and is still married to the same woman, has two beautiful, smart and well mannered daughters and a wonderful wife and even a mother in-law that adores him. It would seem to me that our president has so much more than the Donald, especially since he got it down right the first time- he didn’t have to file bankruptcy at all!

    President Obama is mixed. Half African-American and half white. His family, you know the ones who raised him—are white! Yes they are newsflash. lets talk about that side. No other President in the history of the United States has ever had to show their “papers.” The man is smart, Bush “needed” his aides to answer simple questions, Oh but since he is totally white no one questioned his “papers.” this whole Trump crap is just a rich, white, racist man standing on the soap-box and those who amuse him are hiding behind there KKK sheets missing the slavery days. Another newsflash. Slavery has been abolished and “all” citizens of the United States have the opportunity to become President. Didn’t your teachers tell you that growing up?

    Can I just
    say what a relief to find someone who actually knows what they’re talking about
    on the internet. You definitely know how to bring an issue to light and make it
    important. More people need to read this and understand this side of the story.
    I can’t believe you’re not more popular because you definitely have the gift.jetta variant
