In amongst the usual paranoia links, there are plenty of links showing he graduated magna cum laude from Harvard. The actual GPA though, seems to be unavailable.

Exactly. Just cause he graduated in Latin doesn't mean he got good grades.

doesn't everyone at Harvard graduate with some sort of honors? (well, 30%, as it turns out) MCM requires gpa in upper 20%, and is below summa cum laude.

What you and quade post are just jokes

Magna Cum Laude is Columbia's acknowledgment that he graduated with a better than 3.5 at the lowest (probably higher, but the article I read didn't specify for before 2009). Colleges do it either on relative rank or on GPA -- it's their choice. But they don't willy-nilly award it to someone because they like him. There are plenty of other awards to give for that.

GWB's GPA was not high enough to get a cum laude; therefore, it was lower.

The Harvard Law Review is the second-most cited law review in the country. It's pretty serious. Long before anyone thought he'd run for President of the US as an evil Democrat, he was elected to President of the Harvard Law Review.

You can say lots of things about Obama, but it's ludicrous to say there's doubt about whether he did better in college and graduate school/law school.

So you're saying you don't trust Columbia in the 1980's, following a long-established process?

No
I dont trust anything that has political attachments

Until then

we dont

What's George doing in a room filled with such qualified people? That's like a eigth [SIC] grader lecturing foreign policy at the Un or something....

Ah the humor.....

[wmw999 2,589]

So colleges have political attachments that can see into the future? Dang. They're good.

Obama wasn't political when he graduated MCL.

They don't guarantee admission, but they can help. Anyone who's been to college knows that at pretty much any college, there are easier and harder classes once you get in

And do you think you can just buy a degree from an ivy league?

Quote

I'd guess, then, that you think that Obama is even better by Ivy League criteria, since he not only went there, but he made better grades.

I am not calling Obama:
"old tosser" that should be "in a home .... I hear there's a suitable one in Guantánamo"

"a eigth [SIC] grader"

Claiming he only got into school because of the "Skull and Bones"

Saying Obama had to, "BUY an Ivy League education"

Find a post from me saying Obama did not earn his degree.... go on.. Look for one and report back.

No, we won't. If his GPA is high, then clearly they are false and the university increased his marks.

They knew this kenyan muslim without a birth certificate was going to be president of the US. The liberal media and puppet masters had already decided so.

I didn't say you did. My assertion was that if you think Ivy League is a (not the only) qualifier for President, that Obama's qualifications in that area are better.

It is not MY fault you hate him so much and can't bear the thought that he might be smarter than you.

#1. Obama has not released his transcripts... So you cannot really say he did better.

#2. I have never claimed Obama was a moron, like the others have of Bush.

So your 'assertion' was to ask me questions instead of asking them the questions like I asked them... You are complicit in their attacks on Bush, yet hound me for a comment about something I never implied?

You missed this one" And do you think you can just buy a degree from an ivy league?"

Do I think Obama is smart? Sure. Do I think Bush is smart? Sure. Do I think Obama is smarter than Bush? I don't know, and it does not really matter. I do know that transcripts showed the Bush did better in school than Gore... Of course *I* don't use that to call Gore "stupid" like some one the ones you seem to be defending.

>If and when the GPA records are released we will know

Well, we already do know; you'd never accept it. You'd just claim that the reported GPA's were fraudulent, just as you claim they are lying now.

That will be a very nice bonus for the top 1% that receives 25% of the income and owns 40% of the assets in the USA.

Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach.

It must really piss you off that so many people pay lots of money to have people like me teaching their children.

Which proves your hypocrisy when it comes to who pays how much in taxes

What do taxes have to do with it? Kindly explain.

All you have to do is work smarter and you can be one of them. The only thing stopping you is...you.

He is already in the top income bracket, 6 figures easy by the way he brags. He just feels guilty but only wants others to give up there's.

Your training in mind-reading wasn't successful - you should ask for your money back.

John, your a good skydiver and a likable person, but I do not agree with your politicle views , and that would greatly bother me if you were teaching them to my children. your job is to teach not instill your views on the children.

So you and Ron are children. OK, that explains some of your views.

I teach ENGINEERING, in case you have forgotten, not PoliSci.

which is a relief. Engineering students don't give a dry fart about political concerns - they're too buried in study to even think about that until they become tax payers.
