Proof affirmative action works

bravo said:
You KNOW Bush couldn't get into A&M but yet he picked that University for the site of he Presidential Library...mighty forgiving, huh....
How do you know he even applied to A&M in the first place.
He received degrees form both Yale and Harvard, but he just ain't that smart in your book, huh...

You can speculate about Bush but can't about Obama.....you can find reasons why Bush get into Harvard other than merit and can't speculate on
Obama getting to be Pres. of HLR except by excellent grades....

Why does he insist his grades be kept a secret....speculate about that...
Why does he insist on secrecy about how his college tuitions were covered...speculate about that....
Did affirmative action play any part in Obamas charmed life ?....speculate about that.....

Got a case of tunnel-vision maybe ?

Are you familiar with endowments? Harvard leads the pack. And Harvard Law financial assistance is strictly need-based. You don't like it, take it up with them.

"The Financial Aid Program at Harvard Law School is need-based. We do not award any merit-based financial assistance to JD students. Our aid program is designed to help students who demonstrate financial need cover the costs of their legal education. Our goal is to provide enough funding to meet any gap between the annual cost of attendance and each student's resources."

Yes, I am familiar with endowments.....whats your point ?

Are you speculating that this is how Obamas tuition was covered ? And if you are, do you have anything to confirm it ?

Too funny. In 2008 you were all over the guy who graduated at the bottom of his class. Where was the call for his papers and test scores? For that matter, where are Romney's papers and test scores? But for some reason the black guy is being held to a higher standard of proof.

Romney's grades are available online. Stop hiding behind skin color. Time for you and your pals to grow up and treat everyone the same and cease your racist bullshit.

I'm speculating that since Obama wasn't a legacy admission, he got financial aid. And "speculating" means I don't have proof.

Uh, I'm not talking about freshman year in high school. And you may think you neatly sidestepped the issue of McCain's poor record but I noticed.

And thats my point....why should be have to "spectulate" about anything concerning any man that seeks to be President.....he should be an open book
about this kind of data, it goes to his qualifications to be where he is........
but here we are....starting into this guys 5 years as President and we're still in the dark about so many things its ludicrous....

Romney's grade point average in college is easily found online. If you want to take off down a rabbit trail about McCain, you're going all by yourself. Have fun.

Other Presidents have released them and I think Bush's were leaked.

Owebama must have something to hide. Just sayin'. An egomaniac like that would have them plastered all over the Internetz if everything was up to par. It ain't.

Bush released his, Kerry's were leaked. That's when we found out that Bush had better grades than Kerry...

Bush's were leaked. Before that he refused to release them. Kerry released his after the election in 2004. I don't think Romney released his. Al Gore's were leaked. McCain didn't release his.

Basically, the press can manage to get their hands on transcripts sometimes, but candidates almost never release them.

If two men are running for president, one is the product of a wealthy family who's father was President and head of the CIA, and a man who got into Harvard but could not get into Texas A&M, who then ran every business his father bought him into the ground... then got his daddy to get him into politics....

The other was a U.S. war vet., U.S. Senator, Vice President ....

Which would you vote for... oooops, you already proved that point, you voted for the guy whose daddy got him into the Alabama National Guard so he would not have to go to Vietnam.

Still repeating the lies that were debunked a decade ago.....?
Don't you ever learn anything ?
Are you gonna use Dan Rather as a source to prove your accusations or the Huffingtonpost ?

Oh, what a croc...you only want an open book when it is a black guy or a Democrat, I didn't see you demanding anything from Romney.

From who, WorldNutDaily? You want to see grades and test scores from Obama, I want to see the same for Romney and that means the actual paperwork, not comments on some right wing apologist's blog.

And, you're the one claiming that Obama must be hiding his grades because they're lousy so stop trying to deflect about McCain. If grades are the standard you're setting for presidents, then we dodged a bullet with McCain because he was at the bottom of the barrel.
 
bravo said:
At least we're aware of McCains's record....again, thats the gd point...

:rolleyes: The point is you guys think Obama's hiding his grades because they're poor, yet you were all ready and eager to support a man who's grades were demonstrably poor.

Let's see: Obama, deficits matter. cheney, deficits don't matter. Obama, grades matter. McCain/Palin, grades don't matter. Obama, killing bin Laden matters. bush, bin Laden doesn't matter anymore. Obama, birth certificate matters. bush, birth certificate doesn't matter.

You guys couldn't be more openly hackish if the word was etched into your foreheads.
