i don't know about college but he graduated magna cum from Harvard. and let's not forget he was voted by his peers to be the first black president of the Harv. L. Rev.

He went to Occdiental in LA for 2 years then transferred to Columbia for UG.

Then Magna at HLS.

I'm assuming between the transfer to Columbia and his Magna performance at HLS, his grades during UG were probably solid

There's no question that Obama is the most intellectually adroit candidate to run for the presidency in a long time. If I'm not mistaken he was not only a president of HLR, but a constitutional law professor at U. Chicago for a number of years as well. His politics, however, are a whole other story.

True, but they went directly into practice while Obama was actually a scholar and academic for several years before entering politics. That's not to say that Hillary is a stupid woman, despite being as conniving and manipulative as she is.

Almost all of the partners at my firm could easily become academics if they wanted. Academics are not always smarter or even more intellectually adventurous than those who choose to do into private practice.

Bill actually taught at U. of Arkansas for a while before he ran for governor. One of the biographies I read describes how he was an easy grader and really popular with his students.

and hate the Clintons, I would submit Bill is smarter than Barrack. YLS + Rhodes Scholar is pretty hard to top.

Both have the JD, but Prez of Harvard Law Review >>>>> HBS MBA.

Although, I think Romney has a far better business sense, on pure academic smarts, I'd give the nod to Obama.

Subject: Obama's high school and college grades

Obama was a mediocre student in prep school and college. See "OBAMA From Promise to Power" Chapter 4, David Mendell. This book is full of facts about Obama's history and it won an NAACP Image Award. It appears that Obama got into Harvard Law because of the community organizing work he did in Chicago and the fact that his father went to Harvard grad school. I don't know if Obama Sr. graduated. Obama also made important contacts in Chicago before he was admitted to Harvard. He had graduated from Columbia in 1983 and was not accepted at Harvard until 1987.

Frankly, I think you get more credit for getting into Harvard despite mediocre grades then beating all the people who spent all of undergrad studying. (Then later beats them becoming President in his mid-40s while they're desperately trying to figure out why they didn't make partner).
