Do Republicans know that Obama graduated Magna *** Laude, from Harvard?
The ones who keep asking this question about Obama's Harvard years over and over again.
Magna *** Laude is a GPA ranging from 3.50-4.0
Obama was also editor of the Harvard Law Review
Every editor is chosen after a meeting of the review's 80 editors. This is also true of Obama.
The procedure or practice was started in the 70's with whites not blacks and the first women who is white in 1977.
Obama didn't enter Harvard until the 80' or 90'.
It is not based on race. It can be men or women of any race white, black, asian.
Obama also passed the BAR exam.
LEOPARDLADY:
Thank you for being an honest Republican.
You get it!
I just wanted to set the record straight because of all the bogus questions on Y/A about Obama's Harvard years.

Your point only hits the mark with those who try to say Obama is dumb.
I am not one of those.
I know he is a very smart man, but I disagree with his policies, am bothered with his lack of experiience & very desturbed by who he has surrounded himself with all his life.

So what?
Lots of people do things like that.
I'm not impressed.
In fact, going to Harvard is a minus in my book.
Most people who go there think they're better than other people.
It makes them snotty elitists.
How come he's never released any of his grades from any of these fancy dancy schools he went to?
He also never wrote any articles for the Law Review. Was he lazy, not a good writer, or didn't want to leave a paper trail????
Where's his thesis?
He never published anything in all his years as a law professor. WHY NOT???? Didn't he have any ideas?
Some of his students said he was a pretty bad teacher. Why hasn't the media interviewed any of them????
McCain has released EVERYTHING.
Obama has released NOTHING.
Of course, the media hasn't asked.
They don't want to find out, do they.
They are much more interested in destroying Sarah Palin.
Harvard is just another school.
Obama is a blank.
I'm not buying a pig in a poke.
He's hiding something.
What???

Unbelievable! Even with magna and Laude, the yahoo censor catches C U M thinking you meant the one that is pronounced like Come That is too funny. Except when you consider the fact that the average obama Voter has NO idea what the Latin version of "With great praise" means

to those that say "So, not big deal". Mccain graduated at the Bottom of his Class as did GW Bush. Who by the way, had one of his instructors at Harvard say "GW Bush is Unteachable!" I know you want a guy you can laugh at while your getting Drunk. But that doesn't mean they should be a leader of anything more then a Girl Scout Cookie Drive. (But don't let them around the "Boy" Scout's if you know what I mean.) And the Only Bars GW or McFudd ever passed are the ones that don't serve Black people!
That is my answer.

And Mccain finished near the bottom of his class at the Naval Academy what a difference!

Ok, whats your point? So he was a good student, many many people graduate the same way that he did. Granted editor of the Harvard Law Review is a nice feather in his cap, but it doesn't make him worthy to be president.

I could come up with dozens of counter-arguements on how Obama ISN'T right for the job but I won't.
Why?
Because this is Yahoo f***ing Answers.
Edit: And it isn't because I don't think he's smart. I believe he's smart. I just disagree with his opinions on certain issues. Going to a good school doesn't mean you're going to have the same opinions as everyone else.

They also know the McCain finished 5th from the bottom in his class at the naval academy. Guess they would rather talk about something else!

What's your point? It sounds to me like you visited Wikipedia and pulled all of the amazing points of interest off the page. A lot of people sound good on paper...

They don't want to acknowledge how intelligent he is, well-educated and hardworking. It doesn't fit into the false picture that they are determined to paint of Obama.
