Not necessarily a moot point.
Yes, his grandparents put him in a private school.
They then paid for his education at Occidental College.
Harvard, that is called student loans, which he himself paid for.
No one denies he got a great education, which, I should add, says more about the person because it is no easy task.
Yes, that's right, it takes discipline and hard work, especially at Harvard.
You and many others have made remarks about blacks to quit complaining, that they have the opportunity to do what they want to make something of themselves.
Well, that is what Obama did, now you want to condemn him for it? Now you want to act as though he had a silver spoon in his mouth? Hardly.
The first 10yrs of his life are what shaped him, what shapes all of us. Those are the years in which we are molded, figuratively. That isn't my opinion, by the way, that is lifespan and human development information. Where were those first 10yrs spent? No, I am not making an argument that he was some poor ghetto child, but initially he certainly didn't have it like most did.

Then his wife claiming they now have 5 silver spoons instead of four kind of supports this post's direction. I would have traded lifestyles anytime in regards to his upbringing. According to his own words in debates and on TV, he claimed he & his family struggled as a child growing up wherever. Jeez, if that's struggling, may most "poor, struggling" Americans suffer like that! It does seem as most politicians play the bleeding hearts role in regards to their upbringing, IMO. Or was he just a "poor upper class kid"???? LOL.

As I saw it Earl, it pointed out that politicians do tend to lean towards the lean times they may never have had to drum up election support. More power to them if they had a decent upbringing but I believe making themselves look poor & deprived dosen't cut it with me. I went to school & my family was poor back then too, actually being raised with Food Stamps when my dad (RIP) was layed off; But I wouldn't parade it as a significant event in my life to get votes neither, like Mr. Obama & his wife did on worldwide TV. No anger here mind you, just speaking on what was stated by them and what is actually the truth in regards to his upbringing. It does seem to apply to most when seeking election, etc.

Earl,

Car understood what I posted. The point is that Obama claimed that is up bringing very differently than he claimed.

On a side note, isn't funny that everybody in the United States knew what schools and even her GPA in College that Sarah Palin did, but no one knew about Obama's grades in High School or even his thesis? Interesting......

Bye, go somewhere with that schooling in Indonesia bit. It has been investigated and proven, he isn't a muslim and the school wasn't a muslim teaching one. Get over it. He is a christian American. And yes, I was speaking of his living in Indonesia, not America, does that take away the fact that he lived in poverty there? No, of course it doesn't.
His grandparents paid for his education in Hawaii.
He paid for his ivy league one.
And to act as though you don't condemn him is foolish because you have continually done so. That is, afterall, the point of your attack blogs. It certainly isn't to praise him, now is it?

I didn't deflect anything. And the information you are spewing is radical web reporting with no foundation at all. I did my very best to respond to the bs that was thrown during the campaign, but I cannot continually try to defend absurd accusations without merit of any kind. What would be the point?
How did McCain pay for his education? Oh, thats right, he didn't get one. [navy flight doesn't pertain to this discussion]
How did Palin pay for hers?
The questions about Obama were and are unprecedented. No other candidate put out as much information in response to ludicrous charges, not one. He shouldn't have had to, but he did, and this still wansn't enough for the conspiracy people. Give me a break.

When I made that post, my intention was to let people know what kind of person they were dealing with. How can we learn from someones view if we don't know how they derived that view? The answer- we can't.
The fact of the matter is, that post infuriated midevil and he went on a nut. He exposed his own hate to such a degree it was laughable.

yaaa daaa yaaa daa Hi bye bye send me some sunshine ..
