Obama began his education in Hawaii's public schools. He was enrolled in Ms. Sakai's kindergarten class at Noelani Elementary School in 1967. He was only there a couple or three months before he was off to Indonesia. Oddly missing from the the State of Hawaii Department of Education, is the first in a series of coincidences."

Although Obama has had a first-class education that spanned 25 years, there is only a single document that has ever been released, the application for entrance to the Franciscus Assisi Primary School (next item) -- and that document was discovered by independent investigators.

This is an important feature because Kindergarten records for original school entry would have contained the following:

1. Obama's REAL Birth Certificate.
2. An application with the following:

His Legal name.
Parents or Legal Guardian's names.
Date of Birth
Place of Birth
Vaccination Records (revealing a timeline to the place and DOB.)

It also is important for two additional reasons:

A. The Department of Education does not "lose" the records of one particular student. (So, who paid whom what sum to make this record disappear?)

B. There would have been NO shameful low-test scores, NO embarrassing Equal Opportunity advancements, and NO trails of fraudulent funding to hide that could possibly "excuse" the quashing of public school Kindergarten entry records. For the rest of his life he attended very expensive private schools and has had his records legally sealed to deny the public his true life story.

This is different. Hawaii should be able to verify he attended their school since he is featured in class photographs. State and federal tax dollars paid for his initial year of education. Why is there no documentation?

This is the beginning of an intentionally erased life of a fraud and conman and it reeks of complicity by officials within the State of Hawaii's Dept. of Health and Dept. of Education.

The "An American Expat in Southeast Asia" blog reports that Obama's Indonesian schooling began when he was entered into the Roman Catholic, Franciscus Assisi Primary School, in Jakarta, Indonesia, on January 1, 1968 and sat in class 1B.

He was registered under the name of Barry Soetoro, serial number 203.

The school registration document identifies Barry Soetoro as an Indonesian citizen and his religion was identified as Islam.

This registration, made available on Jan. 24, 2007, by the Fransiscus Assisi school in Jakarta, Indonesia, shows the registration of Barack Obama under the name Barry Soetoro into the Catholic school made by his step-father, Lolo Soetoro. The document lists Barry Soetoro as a Indonesian citizen, born on August 4, 1961 in Honolulu, and shows his Muslim step-father listed the boy's religion as Islam.

The Obama Campaign claims that the "Muslim" entry references the religion of the father, which is absurd. Every other entry on the document relates to Obama. The attributes on the document describe Obama, the child, not Lolo, the stepfather.

Born on August 4, 1961, Obama would have been 7 years and 5 months old. That's late to start school. Obama will always be 2 years older than his classmates

Obama started Kindergarten in Hawaii but was whisked off to Indonesia as a result of his mother's second marriage.

There are 5 missing years in Anna's CV between Obama Sr. abandoning the family and her emigration to Indonesia with Lolo.

Obama completed the first 3 grades at Assisi. Obama then entered the Besuki Primary School, a state school. He was enrolled as Barry Soetoro, Muslim. He would attend Besuki for two years. Iis Darmawan, 63, Obama's teacher, remembers him as an exceptionally tall and curly haired child who quickly picked up the local language and had sharp math skills. He wrote an essay entitled: "I Want To Become President" the teacher said.

His third grade teacher, Fermina Katarina Sinaga, now 67, asked her class to write an essay titled "My dream: What I want to be in the future. Obama wrote: "I want to be a President."

All Indonesian students are required to study religion at school and a young Barry Soetoro, being a Muslim, would have been required to study Islam daily in school.

He would have been taught to read and write Arabic, to recite his prayers properly, to read and recite from the Qur'an and to study the laws of Islam.

In his autobiography, "Dreams From My Father," Obama mentions studying the Qur'an and describes the public school as "a Muslim school. According to Tine Hahiyary, one of Obama's teachers and the principal from 1971 through 1989, Barry actively took part in the Islamic religious lessons during his time at the school. His teacher was named Maimunah and she lived in the Cianjur Regency.

"I remembered that he had studied "mengaji" (recitation of the Qur'an)" Tine said.

The actual usage of the word 'mengaji' in Indonesian and Malaysian societies means the study of learning to recite the Quran in the Arabic language rather than the native tongue. "Mengagi" is a word and a term that is accorded the highest value and status in the mindset of fundamentalist societies here in Southeast Asia. To put it quite simply, 'mengaji classes' are not something that a non-practicing or so-called moderate Muslim family would ever send their child to. To put this in a Christian context, this is something above and beyond simply enrolling your child in Sunday school classes."

The fact that Obama had attended mengaji classes is well known in Indonesia and has left many there wondering just when Obama is going to come out of the closet. As Plato said, the images and stories we feed our children affect them for life.

As I've stated before, the evidence seems to quite clearly show that both Ann Dunham and her husband Lolo Soetoro Mangunharjo were in fact devout Muslims themselves and they raised their son as such."

Obama's half-sister, Maya, recalled that the family attended the mosque "for big communal events," and "Obama occasionally followed his stepfather to the mosque for Friday prayers."

On January 24, 2007, the Obama campaign released the following statement, "To be clear, Senator Obama has never been a Muslim, was not raised a Muslim, and is a committed Christian who attends the United Church of Christ in Chicago. Then, on March 14th, 2007, the Obama Campaign told the LA Times he wasn't a "practicing Muslim."

But his official website said: "Obama Has Never Been A Muslim, And Is a Committed Christian

This is the basic problem with Obama -- his dissimulation -- some would call it outright lying -- but read what his classmates say.

In 2007, classmate Rony Amiris described young Barry as enjoying football and playing marbles and of being a very devout Muslim. Amir said, "Barry was previously quite religious in Islam."

"We previously often asked him to the prayer room close to the house. If he was wearing a sarong he looked funny," said Rony.

Amiris now the manager of the Bank Mandiri, Jakarta, recently said, "Barry was previously quite religious in Islam. His birth father, Barack Hussein Obama was a Muslim economist from Kenya. Before marrying Ann Dunham, Hussein Obama was married to a woman from Kenya who had seven children. All the relatives of Barry's father were very devout Muslims"

Rony extrapolates further, that Obama at one point had to change his religion if he ever intended later to run for the office of President of the United States because America would never elect a Muslim to the be President of the United States.

Also in 2007, Emirsyah Satar, CEO of Garuda Indonesia, was quoted as saying "He (Obama) was often in the prayer room wearing a 'sarong', at that time."

"He was quite religious in Islam but only after marrying Michelle, he changed his religion. When the Soetoros divorced, Anna took Obama to live with her parents, the Dunhams, in Honolulu. Anna and Obama's half-sister, Maya, returned to Indonesia.

In 1972, the Dunhams enrolled "Barry Obama" in the prestigious Punahou School starting in the fifth grade. He attended Punahou on a scholarship, and walked the five blocks from his grandmother's apartment on Beretania to the school. With more than 3,000 students, Punahou is the largest private school in the country, and it sits on a lush, sprawling campus in Honolulu. The school is elite and wealthy.

He made friends quickly and told his classmates that his father was an African prince, the leader of a proud and successful people. Obama's classmate and friend, Keith "Ray" Kakugawa, noted that "Barry's biggest struggles then were missing his parents. His biggest struggles were his feelings of abandonment."

Obama would write, "I didn't feel [her absence] as a deprivation, but when I think about the fact that I was separated from her, I suspect it had more of an impact than I know."

While at Punahou School, Obama turns into a disenchanted teenage rebel, experimenting with cocaine and marijuana; Obama admits in "Dreams" that during high school he smoked marijuana, drank alcohol, even used cocaine occasionally.

In his book, Obama recalls that he had "been headed" to the status of "junkie" or "pothead", which he describes as "the final, fatal role of the young would-be black man". He recalls smoking "reefer" in the backs of his friends' vans, dorm rooms and "on the beach with a couple of Hawaiian kids who had dropped out of school."

Obama, told a group of students in New Hampshire that his drug use had caused him to "waste a lot of time" during his high school years.

Bryon Leong, a former classmate, remembers "He was known as a partier, as a guy looking for a good time, but not much more," Mr Leong said. "There was pot in Hawaii in the 1970s, but it wasn't a big deal."

"It wasn't like guys were smoking dope on campus and coming to school high," said Eric Kusunoki, 57, Obama's teacher from age 15 to 18. "If they did, it would have been pretty obvious. If he did dabble with drugs or alcohol, I didn't see it."

Other schoolmates also remember his time at school rather differently. He was a spoiled high-achiever, they recall.

One of his former classmates, Alan Lum, said: "Hawaii is such a melting pot that it didn't occur to me when we were growing up that he might have problems about being one of the few African-Americans at the school. Us kids didn't see color. He was easy-going and well-liked."

"He was a basketball player and always had a ball in his hand wherever he was," Wysard recalled.

At school Obama was surrounded by the island's richest and most accomplished students. America Online founder Steve Case, actress Kelly Preston and former Dallas Cowboys lineman Mark Tuinei, who died in 1999, attended the school around that time. While a student in the late 1970s, Barack Obama carved his name in the pavement outside the cafeteria of Punahou School.

The Oahuan, the yearbook of Punahou School, shows Barack Obama posing with his 1979 state basketball championship team for Punahou School.

Pajamas Media obtained official confirmation from the Selective Service System via email that Barack Obama did indeed register for the Selective Service as required by law. Barack Hussein Obama registered at a post office in Hawaii. The effective registration date was September 4, 1980. His registration number is 61-1125539-1. However, did he never actually register and, instead, did friends of his in the Chicago federal records center, which maintains the official copy of his alleged Selective Service registration, finagle that?

But the release of Obama's draft registration and an accompanying document raises more questions than it answers. And it shows many signs of fraud, not to mention putting the lie to Obama's claim that he registered for the draft in June 1979, before it was required by law.

Barack Obama began his undergraduate education at Occidental College, in California. Occidental is a 1,825-student liberal arts college in the Eagle Rock neighborhood of Los Angeles and isn't shy about claiming Obama as an alumnus for his two years there (1979-81).

The Boston Globe did a large piece on his Occidental years.

Obama writes in "Dreams," that he saw his mentor, the communist Frank Marshall Davis, only a few days before he left for Occidental College, and that Davis seemed as radical as ever.

Davis called college, "An advanced degree in compromise" and warned Obama not to forget his "people" and not to "start believing what they tell you about equal opportunity and the American way and all that sh-t."

With those words ringing in his head, Obama entered Occidental College in California in 1979, where his freshman roommate was Imad Husain, a Pakistani, who's now a Boston banker. Also, as a freshman, he quickly became friends with Mohammed Hasan Chandoo and Wahid Hamid, two wealthy Pakistanis.

Obama had an international circle of friends -- "a real eclectic sort of group," says Vinai Thummalapally, who himself came from Hyderabad, India, and who lived with Obama the summer of 1980.

In his first memoir, "Dreams," Obama included a description of black student life at Occidental College in Los Angeles.

"There were enough of us on campus to constitute a tribe, and when it came to hanging out many of us chose to function like a tribe, staying close together, traveling in packs," he wrote. "It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names."

He added: "To avoid being mistaken for a sellout, I chose my friends carefully. The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. The Marxist professors and structural feminists."

Obama said he and other blacks were careful not to second-guess their own racial identity in front of whites.

"To admit our doubt and confusion to whites, to open up our psyches to general examination by those who had caused so much of the damage in the first place, seemed ludicrous, itself an expression of self-hatred," he wrote.

Obama joined the Students for Economic Democracy (SED), a radical socialist "cousin" organization to Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), of which the Weather Underground was an off-shoot. As a matter of fact, Obama's first public speech was at an event sponsored by the Students for Economic Democracy. This fringe group was chaired by the radical Tom Hayden in the late 70's and early '80's.

You are know by your friends and associates -- and Obama's are the hard-core leftists.

To reiterate, at Occidental College Obama played basketball and continued taking drugs. He became friends with Pakistani Muslims Mohammed Hasan Chandoo (perhaps spelled Chandio) and Wahid Hamid, and Indian Vinai Thummalapally. At Occidental College Obama indulges in alcohol, marijuana, and cocaine. He became interested in the anti-apartheid movement in South Africa.

While at Occidental Obama was mentored by an openly gay professor, Lawrence Goldyn, who has a strong influence on Obama's acceptance of gays. Fellow student Thummalapally lived with Obama in the summer of 1980. Obama's freshman year roommate at Occidental was Imad Husain, a Pakistani.

Safely away from his grandparents Obama started smoking cigarettes while at Occidental College, as many as 10 per day, and continued the habit until an attempt to quit in February of 2007. On the campaign trail in 2008, however, reporters with a keen sense of smell recognize that Obama was still sneaking occasional cigarettes. (Obama's refusal to release his medical records may arguably relate to his 25-year smoking habit.)

Obama's friends at Occidental tended to be the more politically active blacks, foreign students, Chicanos, Marxist professors, structural feminists, and punk-rock performance poets. Obama was rebuked on one occasion for calling another black student, who wasn't "black enough," an "Uncle Tom." One female student criticized Obama with the remark, "You always think it's about you."

At Occidental, Obama met a professor of politics who is a CIA expert on the Soviet Union and an associate of Zbigniew Brzezinski (who would later be the National Security Advisor to Jimmy Carter).

At a fundraiser in San Francisco on April 7th 2008, Barack Obama waxed eloquently on the need of foreign policy experience to be Commander in Chief, saying:

"You do that in eighty countries -- you don't know those eighty countries. So when I speak about having lived in Indonesia for four years, having family that is impoverished in small villages in Africa -- knowing the leaders is not important -- what I know is the people..."

... and out of the blue, came this statement:

"I traveled to Pakistan when I was in college -- I knew what Sunni and Shia was before I joined the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. . ."

In 1981, after visiting his mother and sister Maya in Indonesia, Obama went to Pakistan for about three weeks, In 1981, as a student Obama visited Larkana for a partridge hunting session. He traveled with Wahid Hamid and staying in Karachi with Mohammed Hasan Chandio's [sic] family in Karachi and visiting Hyderabad as well.

Obama also made friends with Chairman of Senate, Muhammadmian Soomro, who said that in Pakistan he [Obama] came to know about Sunni and Shia sects.

Mr. Obama visited Pakistan in 1981, on the way back from Indonesia, where his mother and half-sister, Maya Soetoro-Ng, were living. He spent 'about three weeks' there, Mr. Obama's press secretary, Bill Burton, said, staying in Karachi with the family of a college friend, Mohammed Hasan Chandoo, but also traveling to Hyderabad, in India." That information is significant for two reasons.

First and foremost is the fact that Mohammed Hasan Chandoo is a radical Muslim who with his relatives operate a website that is anti-Semitic and anti-American and supports radical Islamic politics.

Go to chandoo.com , the home page of the Chandoo brothers, with a links to the Chandoo brothers favorite sites. Not only are the sites anti-American and anti-Semitic, they are anti-women, with several vulgar references to the distasteful Shia Muslim practice of "muttah," a short term marriage whereby poor Pakistani and Indian Muslims often "pimp" their own daughters to Middle-East tourists for a few rupees.

I wonder which face Obama wore to Pakistan -- his "christian" face? -- or his muslim face?

Hamid nor Chandoo have each contributed the maximum $2,300 to Obama's campaign, and records indicate each has joined an Asian-American council that supports his run for president. Both also are listed on Obama's campaign Web site as being among his top fundraisers, each bringing in between $100,000 and $200,000 in contributions from their networks of friends. Both also attended Obama's wedding in 1992, according to published reports and other friends.

In 1981, in search of a community to belong to, he transferred to that prestigious university on the edge of Harlem -- Columbia, and majored in political science with a specialization in international relations.

Obama said that he was somewhat involved with the Black Students Organization and participated in anti-apartheid activities. "Mostly, my years at Columbia were an intense period of study," he says. "When I transferred, I decided to buckle down and get serious. I spent a lot of time in the library. I didn't socialize that much. I was like a monk."

Obama says it is difficult to separate his college experience at Columbia from the urban experience of living in New York City, and his memoir offers little about his time on campus.

When Obama arrived in New York, he already knew Sohale "Hal" Siddiqi, a drug addicted illegal alien from Pakistan, who was a friend of Chandoo's and Hamid's from Karachi, who had visited them at Occidental College.

He had come to New York from London two years earlier and found his caustic wit and unabashed desire to make money perfectly pitched to the city's mood. He had overstayed his tourist visa and now made a living in New York's high-turnover, illegal immigrant workforce, waiting on tables.

In 1982, Siddiqi and Obama got an apartment at a sixth-floor walk-up on East 94th Street.

In "The Book," Siddiqi is identified only as "Sadik" -- a short, well-built Pakistani" who smoked marijuana, snorted cocaine and liked to party. There's a chapter in Obama's book that features this guy and Obama conversing -- every other word is "whitey"-- whitey this and whitey that -- damned whitey. The were roomies for a while. Siddiqi confirmed Obama's account that he turned serious in New York and "stopped getting high."

Watching Sadik's drugging obviously got Obama's attention.

"I stopped getting high. I ran 3 miles a day and fasted on Sundays. For the first time in years I applied myself to my studies and started keeping a journal of daily reflections and very bad poetry," he wrote in "Dreams."

He went to the Marxist-Socialist conferences at Cooper Union and African cultural fairs in Brooklyn and started lecturing his relatives until they worried he'd become "one of those freaks you see on the streets around here."

The Obama campaign declined to discuss Obama's time at Columbia and his friendships in general. It won't, for example, release his transcript or name his friends. They did, however, list five locations where Obama lived during his four years here: three on Manhattan's Upper West Side and two in Brooklyn -- one in Park Slope, the other in Brooklyn Heights. His memoir mentions two others on Manhattan's Upper East Side.

Obama studied the Cloward-Piven Strategy of Manufactured Crisis in Political Science classes at Columbia University.

The Cloward-Piven Strategy is to over-commit government, growing it past the point of sustainability by causing crises This, while developing an organized proletariat of dependent classes and applying them to disrupt society and revolt against American freedoms. All, to ring in the new "egalitarian" neo-Marxist state. That would be a big change.

The latest report on Obama's missing thesis comes from MSNBC. Written his senior year at Columbia University, Obama's thesis was about Soviet nuclear disarmament. It's only natural to wonder what the budding socialist turned presidential candidate thought of nuclear proliferation in the early 1980s.

"We do not have a copy of the course paper you requested and neither does Columbia University," Obama spokesman Ben LaBolt told NBC News.

The Obama campaign has been less than forthcoming with details. Spokesman Ben LaBolt wouldn't even say whether Sen. Obama "threw out his copy or lost it." At an earlier date, an aide actually told the New Republic the junior senator couldn't recall what he had written about, but as that editor notes, "who doesn't remember their senior thesis?" Maybe if the Obama campaign would release the thesis and Obama's college transcript like a normal presidential campaign, we could all decide for ourselves whether Obama deserves an A.

In early 2009, an article written by Obama, "Breaking the War Mentality," was discovered.

It's crap, for the most part. You'll have to read it and decide for yourself.

Obama and the unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers were at college -- within a quarter mile of each other -- for two years in 1982 and 1983.

When Obama was at Columbia, Ayers was at Bank Street College (BSC), where he received an M.A. in Early Childhood Education -- 371 yards down the street.

BSC has no student housing, everyone lives off Campus. Columbia DOES have housing and encourages students to live on campus. However, Fox News interviewed 400 former students from his graduating class and no-one remembers him!

Presumably Obama lived off campus also.

Obama and Ayers had mutual friends. One was Edward Said, the left-wing Columbia superstar was just recently out of hiding. It is inconceivable, given their concentric politics, that they did not know each other.

Obama won't release his transcripts (actually he won't reveal any documentation from his past). Was it because it would reveal his ties to Ayers, a class in common (BSC has collaborations with Columbia), or maybe a common street address?

Obama graduated from Columbia College in 1983, and after spending a year in New York, moved to Chicago.

Wayne Allyn Root says, "I don't know a single person at Columbia that knows him, and they all know me. I don't have a classmate who ever knew Barack Obama at Columbia. Ever! Nobody recalls him. I'm not exaggerating, I'm not kidding.

Questioner: Were you the exact same class?

Root: Class of '83 political science, pre-law Columbia University. You don't get more exact than that. Never met him in my life, don't know anyone who ever met him. At the class reunion, our 20th reunion five years ago, 20th reunion, who was asked to be the speaker of the class? Me. No one ever heard of Barack! Who was he, and five years ago, nobody even knew who he was ... the guy who writes the class notes, who's kind of the, as we say in New York, the macha who knows everybody, has yet to find a person, a human who ever met him. Is that not strange? It's very strange...

When asked about his undergraduate training at Columbia University, The New Times states that Obama "declined repeated requests to talk about his New York years, release his Columbia transcript or identify even a single fellow student, co-worker, roommate or friend from those years."

Many of his classmates don't remember Obama. He's not in the yearbook. Columbia couldn't find a picture of him at school.

What can be said with some certainty is that Mr. Obama lived off campus while at Columbia in 1981-83 and made few friends. Fox News contacted some 400 of his classmates and found no one who remembered him. He had transferred from Occidental College in California after his sophomore year because, he told the Boston Globe in 1990, "I was concerned with urban issues and I wanted to be around more black folks in big cities."

Even though Obama's Columbia grades fall below the Harvard norm, likely even below the affirmative action-adjusted black norm at Harvard, Obama began Harvard Law School in 1988.

Friends say he did not want anyone to assume they knew his mind and because of that, even those close to him did not always know exactly where he stood.

"He then and now is very hard to pin down," said Kenneth Mack, a classmate and now a professor at the law school, referring to the senator's on-the-one-hand, on-the-other-hand style.

Mack added, "Obama stood out from the beginning. He seemed more mature. Everyone understood he was a liberal. He didn't hide that."

All the yearbooks for the year Obama graduated have been yanked from Harvard's library.

How exactly did Barack Obama pay for his Harvard Law School education?

The way the Obama campaign has answered the question was simply hard work and student loans, even though Obama's financial disclosures found no trace of any outstanding college loans, going back to 2000.

New questions have been raised about Obama's student loans and Obama's ties to a radical Muslim activist who reportedly was raising money for Obama's Harvard studies during the years 1988 to 1991.

The allegations first surfaced in late March, when former Manhattan Borough president Percy Sutton told a New York cable channel that a former business partner who was "raising money" for Obama had approached him in 1988 to help Obama get into Harvard Law School.

Sutton says he first heard of Obama about twenty years ago from Khalid Al-Mansour, who Sutton described as advisor to "one of the world's richest men," Saudi prince Alwaleed bin Talal.

Prince Alwaleed catapulted to fame in the United States after the September 11 attacks, when New York mayor Rudy Guiliani refused his $10 million check to help rebuild Manhattan, because the Saudi prince hinted publicly that America's pro-Israel policies were to blame for the attacks.

Sutton knew Al-Mansour well, since the two men had been business partners and served on several corporate boards together.

As Sutton remembered, Al-Mansour was raising money for Obama's education and seeking recommendations for him to attend Harvard Law School.

"I was introduced to (Obama) by a friend who was raising money for him," Sutton told NY1 city hall reporter Dominic Carter. "The friend's name is Dr. Khalid al-Mansour, from Texas."

Apparently, al-Mansour serves on the Board of, among others, Saudi African Bank and was responsible for the Africa investment activities of Kingdom Holdings, Saudi Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal's investment company.

On February 6th, 1990, Obama became the first African-American president of the Harvard Law Review The job is considered the highest student position at Harvard Law School.

He managed to serve as president of the Harvard Law Review without ever publishing a SINGLE piece of signed, written work -- not one!

Politico claims that an unsigned -- and previously unattributed -- 1990 article was produced by Obama and offers a glimpse at his views on abortion policy and the law during his student days, and provides a rare addition to his body of work.

The six-page summary, tucked into the third volume of the year's Harvard Law Review, considers the charged, if peripheral, question of whether fetuses should be able to file lawsuits against their mothers. Obama's answer: No.

Politico was sent an email asking how they knew the document was produced by Obama, since it is "unsigned -- and previously unattributed. They never responded.

Obama's timing, however, was better than his writing. In the same spring 1990 term that he would stand for the presidency, the Harvard Law School found itself embroiled in an explosive racial brouhaha.

Black firebrand law professor Derrick Bell was demanding that the Harvard Law School appoint a black woman to the law faculty.

This protest would culminate in vigils and protests by the racially sensitive student body, in the course of which Obama would compare the increasingly absurd Bell to Rosa Parks.

Feeling the pressure, HLR editors wanted to elect their first African American president. Obama had an advantage. Spared the legacy of slavery and segregation, and having grown up in a white household, he lacked the hard edge of many of his black colleagues.

"Obama cast himself as an eager listener," the New York Times reported, "sometimes giving warring classmates the impression that he agreed with all of them at once."

In February 1990, after an ideologically charged all day affair, Obama's fellow editors elected him president from among 19 candidates. As it happened, Obama prevailed only after the HLR's small conservative action threw him its support.

Obama was elected after a meeting of the review's 80 editors that convened Sunday and lasted until early this morning, a participant said.

Until the 1970's the editors were picked on the basis of grades, and the president of the Law Review was the student with the highest academic rank. Among these were Elliot L. Richardson, the former Attorney General, and Irwin Griswold, a dean of the Harvard Law School and Solicitor General under Presidents Lyndon B. Johnson and Richard M. Nixon.

Curiously, once elected, Obama contributed not one signed word to the HLR or any other law journal. As Matthew Franck has pointed out in National Review Online, "A search of the HeinOnline database of law journals turns up exactly nothing credited to Obama in any law review anywhere at any time. Unlike most editors, and likely all its presidents, Obama was not a writer. During his tenure at Harvard, he wrote only one heavily edited, unsigned note.

In this note for the third volume of the 1990 HLR, he argued against any limits on abortion, citing the government's interest in "preventing increasing numbers of children from being born in to lives of pain and despair." Well, the new system, disputed when it began, was meant to help insure that minority students became editors of The Law Review.

And, it worked!

In other words, Obama was the first affirmative action president of the Harvard Law Revue.

Abner Mikva, a five-term congressman from Illinois who was at that time Chief Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. circuit, tried to recruit Obama as a clerk, a position considered a stepping stone to clerking on the Supreme Court, but Obama turned him down.

"He could have gone to the most opulent of law firms," David Axelrod, a longtime friend who is now Obama's media adviser, said. "After Harvard, Obama could have done anything he wanted."

The Carl M. Loeb Professor at Harvard University, Laurence H. Tribe, taught Obama and employed him as a research assistant. He remembers him as a "brilliant, personable, and obviously unique" person. Tribe said that Obama's theoretical perspective on "applying modern physics" to law was "very impressive."

"He is obviously a serious intellectual as well as a fantastic campaigner who can reach across boundaries," Tribe said. "He will make an extraordinarily fine president."

David B. Wilkins , the Kirkland and Ellis professor of law, said he advised Obama to become a Supreme Court Clerk. "Obama recognized the honor in pursuing that post," Wilkins said, but quickly added that he wasn't interested.

"He said that he wanted to write a book about his life and his father, go back to Chicago, get back into the community, and run for office there. He knew exactly what he wanted and went about getting it done," Wilkins said.

"It was clear to me from the day I met him that he was thinking about politics," says Harvard Law School classmate Christine Spurell.

The one thread, that remains consistent, throughout Obama's life, is his teacher's, mentor's and friend's recollection of Obama's single-minded pursuit of high political office.

Obama graduated from Harvard Law School in 1991. He received his Juris Doctor law degree, magna cum laude.

So, Obama had received a full scholarship to Occidental, which he rejected after two years in favor of Columbia. Did he get a similar deal at Columbia. What grants and loans did the Obamas receive while at Harvard?

The Obamas have consistently presented their life story as a rags to riches tale in which they triumphed over the odds just like ordinary people. But they've offered no proof. Given Obama's career reliance on patronage and kingmakers, the reality may be very different from their touching campaign anecdotes.

As the first black president of the Harvard Law Review, Obama had his pick of top law firms. He chose Miner's Chicago civil rights firm, where he represented community organizers, discrimination victims and black voters trying to force a redrawing of city ward boundaries.

And, one should keep in mind the financial support from the octopus-like tentacle organizations of George Soros.

There are a thousand and one (1001) different distractions, diversions, techniques, and mechanisms by which the current Republican minority in the United States Senate can use to stifle, thwart, hinder, suppress, restrict, and frustrate Majority Leader Harry Reid and his demoncrat cohorts in the Senate so Obamanation does not succeed in selecting, voting on, and appointing "non-qualified" wicked candidates who do not deserve to become judges (especially inferior-gender ones). All those Republicans need to do is "think out of the box," use their imaginations, and be persistent about it.

Numbers 35:1 The LORD said to Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho,
2 "Command the people of Israel, that they give to the [religious "non-profit" tax-exempt] Levites, from the inheritance of their possession, cities to reside in; and you shall give to the Levites pasture lands round about the cities.
3 The cities shall be theirs to reside in, and their pasture lands shall be for their cattle and for their livestock and for all their beasts.
4 The pasture lands of the cities, which you shall give to the Levites, shall reach from the wall of the city outward a thousand cubits all round.
5 And you shall measure, outside the city, for the east side two thousand cubits, and for the south side two thousand cubits, and for the west side two thousand cubits, and for the north side two thousand cubits, the city being in the middle; this shall belong to them as pasture land for their cities.
6 The cities which you give to the Levites shall be the six cities of refuge, where you shall permit the manslayer to flee, and in addition to them you shall give forty-two cities.
7 All the cities which you give to the Levites shall be forty-eight, with their pasture lands.
8 And as for the cities which you shall give from the possession of the people of Israel, from the larger tribes you shall take many, and from the smaller tribes you shall take few; each, in proportion to the inheritance which it inherits, shall give of its cities to the Levites."
9 And the LORD said to Moses,
10 "Say to the people of Israel, When you cross the Jordan into the land of Canaan,
11 then you shall select cities to be cities of refuge for you, that the manslayer who kills any person without intent may flee there.
12 The cities shall be for you a refuge from the avenger, that the manslayer may not die until he stands before the congregation for judgment.
13 And the cities which you give shall be your six cities of refuge.
14 You shall give three cities beyond the Jordan, and three cities in the land of Canaan, to be cities of refuge.
15 These six cities shall be for refuge for the people of Israel, and for the stranger and for the sojourner among them, that any one who kills any person without intent may flee there.
16 But if he struck him down with an instrument of iron, so that he died, he is a murderer; the murderer shall be put to death.
17 And if he struck him down with a stone in the hand, by which a man may die, and he died, he is a murderer; the murderer shall be put to death.
18 Or if he struck him down with a weapon of wood in the hand, by which a man may die, and he died, he is a murderer; the murderer shall be put to death.
19 The avenger of blood shall himself put the murderer to death; when he meets him, he shall put him to death.
20 And if he stabbed him from hatred, or hurled at him, lying in wait, so that he died,
21 or in enmity struck him down with his hand, so that he died, then he who struck the blow shall be put to death; he is a murderer; the avenger of blood shall put the murderer to death, when he meets him.
22 But if he stabbed him suddenly without enmity, or hurled anything on him without lying in wait,
23 or used a stone, by which a man may die, and without seeing him threw it upon him, so that he died, though he was not his enemy, and did not seek his harm;
24 then the congregation shall judge between the manslayer and the avenger of blood, in accordance with these ordinances;
25 and the congregation shall rescue the manslayer from the hand of the avenger of blood, and the congregation shall restore him to his city of refuge, to which he had fled, and he shall live in it until the death of the high priest who was anointed with the holy oil.
26 But if the manslayer shall at any time go beyond the bounds of his city of refuge to which he fled,
27 and the avenger of blood finds him outside the bounds of his city of refuge, and the avenger of blood slays the manslayer, he shall not be guilty of blood.
28 For the man must remain in his city of refuge until the death of the high priest; but after the death of the high priest the manslayer may return to the land of his possession.
29 "And these things shall be for a statute and ordinance to you throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
30 If any one kills a person, the murderer shall be put to death on the evidence of witnesses; but no person shall be put to death on the testimony of one witness.
31 Moreover you shall accept no ransom for the life of a murderer, who is guilty of death; but he shall be put to death.
32 And you shall accept no ransom for him who has fled to his city of refuge, that he may return to reside in the land before the death of the high priest.
33 You shall not thus pollute the land in which you live; for blood pollutes the land, and no expiation can be made for the land, for the blood that is shed in it, except by the blood of him who shed it.
34 You shall not defile the land in which you live, in the middle of which I reside; for I the LORD reside among the people of Israel."

First Kings 20:35 And a certain man of the sons of the prophets said to his fellow at the command of the LORD, "Please hit me." But the man refused to hit him.
36 Then he said to him, "Because you have not obeyed the voice of the LORD, hey, as soon as you have gone from me, a lion shall kill you." And as soon as he had left him, a lion met him and killed him.
37 Then he found another man, and said, "Please hit me." And the man hit him, whacking and wounding him.
38 So the prophet left, and waited for the king by the way, disguising himself with a bandage over his eyes.

Proverbs 3:29 Do not plan evil against your neighbor who resides trustingly beside you.
30 Do not contend with a man for no cause, when he has done you no harm.
31 Do not envy a man of violence and do not choose any of his ways;
32 for the perverse man is an abomination to the LORD, but the upright are in His confidence.
33 The LORD's curse is on the house of the wicked, but He blesses the abode of the righteous.
34 Toward the scorners he is scornful, but to the humble He shows favor.
35 The wise will inherit honor, but fools get disgrace.

Proverbs 22:3 A prudent man sees danger and hides himself; but the gullible go on, and suffer for it.
4 The reward for humility and fear of the LORD is riches and honor and life.
5 Thorns and snares are in the way of the perverse; he who guards himself will keep far from them.
6 Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.
7 The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower is the slave of the lender.
8 He who plants injustice will reap calamity, and the rod of his fury will fail.
9 He who has a bountiful eye will be blessed, for he shares his bread with the poor.
10 Drive out a scoffer, and strife will go out, quarreling and abuse will cease.

Proverbs 27:8 Like a bird that strays from its nest, is a man who strays from his home.
Proverbs 27:12 A prudent man sees danger and hides himself; but the gullible go on, and suffer for it.

Micah 2:6 "Do not preach" -- thus they preach-- "one should not preach of such things; disgrace will not overtake us."
7 Should this be said, house of Jacob? Is the Spirit of the LORD impatient? Are these His doings? Do not my words do good to him who walks uprightly?
8 But you rise against my people as an enemy; you strip the robe from the peaceful, from those who pass by trustingly with no thought of war.
9 The women of my people you drive out from their pleasant houses; from their young children you take away my glory forever.
10 Get up and go, for this is no place to rest; because of uncleanness that destroys with a grievous destruction.
11 If a man should go about and utter wind and lies, saying, "I will preach to you of wine and strong drink," he would be the preacher for this people!

Ephesians 4:17 Now this I affirm and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the nations do, in the futility of their minds;
18 they are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, due to their hardness of heart;
19 they have become callous and have given themselves up to licentiousness, greedy to practice every kind of uncleanness.
20 You did not so learn Christ! --
21 assuming that you have heard about Him and were taught in Him, as the truth is in Jesus.
22 Undress your old nature which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful lusts,
23 and be renewed in the spirit of your minds,
24 and clothe yourselves with the new nature, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.
25 Therefore, stripping off falsehood, let every one speak the truth with his neighbor, for we are members one of another.
26 Be angry but do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger,
27 and give no opportunity to the devil.
28 Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him/her labor, doing honest work with his/her hands, so that he/she may be able to give to those in need.
29 Let no evil talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for edifying, as fits the occasion, that it may impart grace to those who hear.
30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.
31 Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, with all malice,
32 and be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.

Colossians 3:5 Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: fornication, impurity, lustful passion, evil desire [ including gang-territory-demarcation graffiti vandalism ], and covetousness, which is idolatry.
6 On account of these the wrath of God is coming.
7 In these you once walked, when you lived in them.
8 But now strip off anger, wrath, malice, slander, and foul talk from your mouth.
9 Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old nature with its practices
10 and have clothed yourselves with the new nature, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator.
11 Here there cannot be Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave, free man, but Christ is all [ yet still a separate person and not a pantheist ], and in all.
12 Dress up then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, with compassion, kindness, lowliness, meekness, and patience,
13 tolerating one another [ without honking, raising the 3rd finger, impatiently tailgating, road rage, or assaultive fisting ] and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other [ keeping at least one vehicle length for every ten miles per hour of road speed, especially at faster velocities ]; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive.
14 And above all these put on love [ with side-entry-lane incoming traffic yielding to main-thru-way vehicles, and not vice-versa ] , which binds everything together in perfect harmony [ remembering to stop completely at stop signs before making right-hand turns ].
15 And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in the one body. And be thankful.
16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teach and correctively instruct one another in all wisdom, and sing psalms and hymns and [ NON-rap-noise ] spiritual songs with thankfulness in your hearts to God.
17 And whatever you do, in word or action, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
18 Wives, be subject [ i.e. submissive and subordinate ] to your husbands [ not competitive nor confrontationally arrogant or sarcastic sexist-feminist twits consorting with chauvinistic lesbos ], as is fitting in the Lord.
19 Husbands, love your wives [ not indecently-hairstyled mopheads, especially warm-weather soxless ones, who are not currently married to you ], and do not be harsh with them.
20 Children, obey your parents in everything [ except buying cigarettes and/or porn for them ], for this pleases the Lord.
21 Fathers, do not provoke your children, lest they become discouraged [or hostile, especially those who can access firearms ].
22 Slaves, obey in everything those who are your earthly masters [ except buying cigarettes and/or porn for them ], not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing the Lord. [ and if you can't, quit and go find another job but before you quit so you can pay your residual and recurring monthly bills ]
23 Whatever your task, work heartily, as serving the Lord and not humans,
24 knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward; you are serving the Lord Christ.
25 For the wrongdoer will be paid back for the wrong he/she has done, and there is no partiality.
