So where are Obama's college transcripts?

[WhipperSnapper]

I want to see the GOP and the Dems all bring out their transcripts...right now!

Yeah, me too. Ever wonder what George W. Bush's transcripts looked like? I bet we'll learn that Clinton and Obama were the only recent presidents who did well in college and that the Republicans and their candidates skated by. Newt Gingrich probably did well, but how about Romney? Romney wouldn't have needed to do well with all the money his family had.

 

[WhipperSnapper]

[conspiracy theory]Did he? Without the transcripts, he might have never actually graduated and we would never know. Maybe he never even attended Harvard.
[/conspiracy theory]

Lol. The fact that he was allowed to take the Bar Exam and to become licensed to practice law is evidence that he either graduated or that the character and fitness committees of the states he was licensed in made very special accommodations for him long before he was ever a political figure--as though they were conspiring for him to run for president years and years ago.

 

[WhipperSnapper]

The OP may have inadvertently suggested what could be a worthy policy change for our country. Call it the "No more George W. Bushes" rule.

To qualify for president, a candidate must have, at minimum, a 3.80 GPA on a 4.0 scale from their undergraduate college and a 3.50 from any graduate or professional school.

Imagine how that rule would change our presidential political system. Heck, we should make it a rule for congressional seats too! At least our politicians would have some measure of intellectual ability on paper. Presumably they could then at least read and comprehend (to the extent that it is humanly possible) the text of the bills they are voting on.

IMO, they are irrelevant to being a good leader. The best leaders surround themselves with smart and wise men to guide them.

Well Obama better do one of the two, fast.

 

[sportage]

I want to see what is "really" growing in that white house garden
And can I buy a bag?

 

[airdata]

We all know that Obama is an Egyptian clone. Let's just stop w\ the meaningless BS. Lab grown clones don't attend normal colleges.

 

[the DRIZZLE]

I would love to candidates start releasing their transcripts. I think they are far more relevant than a tax return.

He was let in because his Uncle liberated Auschwitz.

You should call it the "No George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln" rule.

Personally, I do not care about politician's transcripts...unless they promise to show them. If they do that, then they need to show them.

I do not know if Obama ever promised to show them.

Yeah I am not concerned about that or birth certificates...It was mostly for the laugh...it seems to have worked.

Why should he? Already released his taxes 10 years worth. More then Willlard. Even if he did the desperate righties would claim they were fake, ala birth certificate.

Killing/capturing terrorists, keeping America safe, economy improving. This is all they have?

Prolly should go back to the flag pin stuff.

 

[waggy]

Romney was pressured into releasing his tax returns - something that has no bearing on how he would run the country.

After 4 years we still haven't seen Obama's transcripts.

who fucking cares?

 

[JS80]

Cuz affirmative action poster boy doesn't want to reveal he's average intelligence

 

[JS80]

You should call it the "No George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln" rule.

And definitely no Obama rule. Unless you want to handicap the GPA for minority presidents. Only non Asians of course.

 

[Anarchist420]

I would guess he hasn't released them because they aren't that good. I read something a while ago that speculated about what they were, but the fact that there is absolutely no mention of his GPA or his LSAT scores makes me wonder.

Few people think Bush was brighter and I'm one of those few because I don't see how Obama could've made 1206 on his SAT. For one thing, his logic is awful unless he's being dishonest when saying "do the math" about raising CG taxes. I think Bush did the shit he did on purpose while Obama does it on accident.

 

[JulesMaximus]

WTF? I've never seen a request for any candidates transcripts. And before Obama never a request for a birth certificate.

Whitey still can't come to terms with a black man as President.

 

[Gonad the Barbarian]

He's hiding them because of that big red "Affirmative Action" stamp on them.

 

[HomerJS]

We also need to shave his head to ensure there isn't a "666" symbol

Nah, the Anti-Christ will be loved by almost everyone. Obama is a polarizing president, so he does not fit the bill. I suspect it is not possible for a US President to be the Anti-Christ, simply because of how partisan US politics has become.

I'm sure the Harvard Law Review was just looking for a token. Guess you would be happier if he were driving Jan Brewer around in a town car.

Tap the meter bro.

 

[spittledip]

Is this the birther movement reborn in a new package? Do we really believe that somehow Obama had all the various jobs/experience that he had, including when he was being groomed for the presidency, that no one ever checked his sources? Highly unlikely.

 

[blackangst1]

As much as I dislike Obama, I couldnt care less.
