Well, it didn't hurt the race card players' case when Trump instantaneously pivoted into the 'how did this guy get into Harvard' angle.
Yeah I see how that conclusion is made.
If Obama's grades were bad as trump claims (without any proof that i've seen) and still got into harvard then its a legit question.
Even if his grades were bad, he was still a legacy admission to Harvard.
Ditto, President Bush. And the person he beat in the 2000 election, Senator Gore. It is quite a normal practice.
There is no legacy or affirmative action involved in having such great - not good, great - grades that he was selected to be editor of the Harvard Law Review.
Laurence H. Tribe of Harvard, who is the foremost Constitutional scholar in the country, called Obama:
"the best student I ever had"
and
the most impressive and talented of the thousands of students I have been privileged to teach in nearly 40 years on the Harvard faculty.
