Took me about 30 seconds to find the following. Perhaps your Internet search skills aren't quite up to snuff. Please don't tell me I didn't document where this came from. Go to Google and find it yourself.

At the end of his first year, he was selected, based on his grades and a writing competition, as an editor of the Harvard Law Review.[18] In February 1990, in his second year, he was elected president of the Law Review, a full-time volunteer position functioning as editor-in-chief and supervising the Law Review's staff of 80 editors.[19] Obama's election as the first black president of the Law Review was widely reported and followed by several long, detailed profiles.[19] During his summers, he returned to Chicago where he worked as a summer associate at the law firms of Sidley & Austin in 1989 and Hopkins & Sutter in 1990.[20] He graduated with a Juris Doctor (J.D.) magna cum laude from Harvard in 1991 followed by his returning to Chicago.

You don't know how to post a link? Don't see anything about grades. All I see is references to "typically that indicates....blah, blah, blah. "Typically" cuts no ice with me.

AND, you DIDN'T document it.........so there.

Look, you have done your due diligence to someone who you obviously revere.

I asked the question of JANMCN simply because she has a knack of saying things with absolutely no basis in fact, and she is also an adorer, thus she also makes false accusations about those who oppose the President and I make it a point to correct here when she is wrong either in her over zealous attitude in defending the President or making false claims about others.

I know that our President is a very smart man...nobody denies it, HOWEVER I have done quite a bit of research on him mostly during the primary years and I also KNOW that he has refused to allow his grades from either Harvard or Columbia be released. In addition he has also put under wraps his testing scores. This is his right and by itself means nothing whatsoever.

I have always been, AND STILL AM, struck by the mystery of his background and trust me there is mystery in his background, which he does not address, nor does the press and again, that is his right, but in my business career, I was always suspicious of those who choose not to be open on certain things.

I just wanted to address this because that is why the question is out there. I fully realize the blind idolization that exists for the President and I do not want those in your camp to be making that same charge about constantly questioning him.....my question was based on what I said and nothing more.

Let us hope that the media learned from their blindness in 2008 and for any candidate of any party they ask the questions and stop accepting because that is what they want to hear.

What he posted is pretty much from WIKI and of course that is a source that becomes questionable at times simply due to the way it is put together...it is word for word I think, WHICH IS A VIOLATION OF THE FORUM RULES !!!

Bucco, you're a better man than I for trying to explain to Marks why the college years of the president is a issue because of all the mystery about it.

I find that it doesn't matter. You're not going to be recognized by them as someone who gives intelligent answers. You're going to discounted for being mean and arbitrary.

Wow! Magna Cum Laude isn't self explanatory to you? Yes, I agree, you are surely atypical! Oh, by the way, I do know how to post a link. Remember, I challenged you to find it yourself. If I could find it you should surely be able to do the same in at least 20 times the 30 seconds it took me. By the way, that would be 10 minutes.

Right.....my point was that the dems do not have a monoply on presidents with poor and impaired judgment. I just read a CBS poll that asked if Bush could run against Obama, for whom would you vote? Obama won, hands down. I think this is more about how bad Bush was than how good Obama is.

Ladydoc! Mark this day down...you and I agree. The posts that I have made were to point out that Bush, Obama, or the two apparent womanizers-Bill Clinton and Herman Cain, etc have all had lapses of self control. Which one of these would preclude the man from running for president or being a good president? I don't think it necessarily has to be an issue.

Challenge me???; go to heck. Just post the stinkin' link if you have one to back up your claims.

I'm nobody's puppet, and I don't follow instructions. You have something to say, just say it and document it, but I'll be damned if I follow your directions.

I found the crap you posted, but I see no definite postings of Obama's college records. I'm not taking his college standings otherwise. I don't care if they all bowed down and praise his butt like you do. I want proof and not conjecture.

We Conservatives fear the truth also, especially if it does not help our bottom line. This in fighting is just what the powerful want. It keeps our sights off of their bottom line. The only way for WE THE PEOPLE to become whole is to stop fighting, join forces and fix the problem. This thread verifies that is not likely to happen anytime soon. We all tend to fall back on simple minded childish attitudes when confronted with any idea not to our personal liking.

At least you do include yourself in the ideas you posit above. But conservatives fearing the truth? Not with this administration. The truth only helps in this point in history.

No doubt, this administration is putting us in dire straights, but we are all in the wrong when it comes to compromising to a amenable solution.
