Is Obama really as stupid about economics as his recent statements imply he is?

    Yes, most likely by a fellow Republican. After all, right now he's competing for the GOP nomination, not against Obama.

    Your point? That would depend on the type of scholarship. Whether it be merit based, minority based or career specific he could have gotten any type of scholarship to attend. We have already established that he had family ties which attended which is already a big conflict of interests.

    Psst...Obama's father went to Harvard on a scholarship as well.

    Have you ever considered Obama may indeed be destroying America on purpose?

    Seriously, Listen to all his claims and statements, and the results of his actions. They all lead to the destruction of America.

    Psst...Obama went to Harvard Law. Obama Sr. didn't.

    And a scholarship is still a scholarship. It's not like he received an athletic one, so obviously he still needed good grades to receive it.

    I didn't say he did. I merely said that he went to Harvard.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama

    Still the same school regardless of which field you study.

    Athletic scholarships aren't the only type of merit scholarships. Any scholarship for any extracurricular activities qualifies for scholarship based on merit at that time. You also choose to ignore minority based scholarships (which is common for Ivy Leagues) being that Obama is black and Career Specific being that he was a "community organizer" at that time.

    Try again.

    Harvard Law isn't the same as a Harvard Business graduate program. Kind of like how you don't see doctors and MBAs saying they went to the same school. :roll:

    And thanks again for proving my point Jone. With what your hinting at, it seems Obama only got in by the color of his skin. Are you suggesting African Americans can't be as intelligent as other folks who get accpeted into Harvard? That they "need help" to get in? Sure sounds like it... :no:

    Same school regardless of how badly your attempts to separate them are.

    You said that not me. I merely told you the types of scholarships Harvard offers. Your beef is with Harvard Law for using Affirmative Action techniques. It's no secret that Ivy League schools use quotes to fill the diversity of their school. I also said that his scholarship was could have been career specific but you choose to focus on the race aspect. Thank you for being above the race card. I know how irresistible it is to use.

    I'm sure that would fit your world few of how Obama opposers are.

    You are correct, MissJonelyn.

    The fact he got a minority scholarship at Harvard as a "community organizer" should explain why he has refused to release his college transcripts!

    Doctors, MBAs, and lawyers all attend the same graduate schools according to Jonelyn. Once again, you never cease to amaze... :laughing: :roll:

    Stop being coy. That's exactly what you were implying.

    World view? Have you looked at some of the posts made on this forum by your team? Yeah, my 'world view' kind seems accurate.

    What is the difference between an alumni from Harvard Law and an alumni from Harvard business?

    If you ask them both were they went to school and where they graduated from they give you the same answer: Harvard. It doesn't matter if they follow that word with medical school or business school. The branches are there merely to separate the type of majors and fields of study from others. They are all in the same location, Boston.

    Stop being a drone.

    If that's what makes you feel better.

    Well then you need to get a life. People are often more brave online than they are in person. If you base everything about your opposition from what people post on a forum then your world view is not a real world view. It's merely a digital view.

    Actually, it does matter. Based upon the profession and each school (Harvard Law, Medicine, MBA) having different rankings and not being as prestigious as one another. Not to mention, there are undergrads at Harvard as well. The ones who graduated from Harvard Graduate programs might want to differentiate between the two.

    And Harvard is in Cambridge, MA, not Boston.

    Stop being intellectually dishonest.

    No, you admitting your a birther-lite would make me feel better.

    Digital view? What is this, the (*)(*)(*)(*)ing Matrix? You 'perceived' Digital view is derived from people writing their opinions on such subjects. I don't think you’re qualified to give psychoanalysis on the validity of people's posts online rather in person.

    Irrelevant. It doesn't matter which is is more prestigious. They're all under the same name and are all branches of the same school.

    Cambridge is a section of Boston dummy.

    You're the only one being intellectually dishonest. You're disparately trying to make Obama look good any way you can be saying Harvard Branch schools are different simply because they vary from the fields of study.

    Whatever that means.

    It's pretty obvious you base your world view not in the actions of your own life but from strangers online. It's sad. It's not my analysis, it's pretty much my opinion. If you had any real friends who were to the right of your political spectrum you wouldn't do that but you are too busy seeing the world through kaleidoscope glasses to differentiate how people online are and how people are when you actually know who you are dealing with.

    Funny... for someone calling someone else stupid you really didn't put forth much of an effort why we should believe you over him.

    But, conservatives are all about the words... not about the facts.

    The people in this group who always strive to make Barack Obama somehow look "good" should have second thoughts after they read this article.

    The more we seen of him and the more we witness his strange behavior, the more we realize this analysis is probably very true.
