A Foreign Scholarship? |
|
There is an open question regarding Obama's status
as a student at Occidental. The question is, did Obama receive
student
aid as a foreign
student? Obama is vigorously fighting the release of his
Occidental College records and has paid attorneys a tin to
keep them private. Now, Obama is is using Justice Department
attorneys -- an improper and illegal use of these civil servants. |
| Occidental Has Never Released
Obama's Records |
Bob Unruh
reports
that a high-powered team of Los Angeles attorneys representing Obama in
his effort to keep his birth certificate, college records and passport
documents concealed from the public has suggested there
should be "monetary sanctions" against a lawyer whose clients have
brought a complaint alleging Obama doesn't qualify for the Oval Office
under the Constitution's demand for a "natural born" citizen in that
post.
The suggestion came in an exchange of e-mails and
documents in a case brought by former presidential candidate Alan Keyes
and others in California. The case originally sought to have the state's
electors ordered to withhold their votes for Obama until his eligibility
was established. Since his inauguration, it has been amended to seek a
future requirement for a vetting process, in addition to the
still-sought unveiling of Obama's records.
In the case, being
handled largely by Gary Kreep of the
U.S.
Justice Foundation, he recently
subpoenaed the records documenting the attendance by Obama, or possibly
the student when he was known as Barry Soetero, from Occidental College.
The lawyer for the college, Stuart W. Rudnick of
Musick, Peeler & Garrett, urgently
contacted
Fredric D. Woocher
of
Strumwasser &
Woocher.
"This firm is counsel to Occidental College. The College is in
receipt of the enclosed subpoena that seeks certain information
concerning President-Elect Barack Obama," he wrote via fax. "Inasmuch as
the subpoena appears to be valid on its face, the College will have no
alternative but to comply with the subpoena absent a court order
instructing otherwise."
Within hours, Woocher contacted Kreep
regarding the issue, telling him, "It will likely not surprise you to
hear that Obama opposes the production of the requested records.
"In order to avoid the needless expense of our bringing and
litigating a Motion to Quash the subpoena, I am writing to ask whether
you would be willing to agree voluntarily to cancel or withdraw the
subpoena…"
Woocher warned, "Please be advised, in particular,
that in the event we are forced to file a motion to quash and we prevail
in that motion, we will seek the full measure of monetary sanctions
provided for in the Code of Civil Procedures."
Why?
Fredric Woocher was
selected as a "Southern California Super Lawyer, 2009," and practices
"political law" -- he charges $600 per hour?"
There's at least 48
legal cases attempting to gain access to various documents from Obama's
past. In this one case, Obama is spending hundreds of thousands of
dollars to hide his bona fides, and using a "Super Lawyer" to do it --
and Occidental is spending many thousands more. You do the math. Obama
is spending millions to hide his past from the American People.
Why?
Watch this case. Occidental's lawyers say they have to
comply with Gary Kreep's subpoena. Watch to see how Obama's lawyers
attempt to manipulate the justice system to quash this subpoena.

False Report |
Yahoo! Answers has the
following
report posted as an "Open Question."
In a move certain to
fuel the debate over Obama’s qualifications for the presidency, the
group "Americans for Freedom of Information" has released copies of
President Obama’s college transcripts from Occidental College. Released
today, the transcript indicates that Obama, under the name Barry Soetoro,
received financial aid as a foreign student from Indonesia as an
undergraduate at the school.
The transcript was released by
Occidental College in compliance with a court order in a suit brought by
the group in the Superior Court of California. The transcript shows
that Obama (Soetoro) applied for financial aid and was awarded a
fellowship for foreign students from the Fulbright Foundation
Scholarship program. To qualify, for the scholarship, a student must
claim foreign citizenship.
This document would seem to provide
the smoking gun that many of Obama’s detractors have been seeking.
Update: Here
is the same report. The International Press Association is crediting
the Associated Press (AP) as the source.
It
NEVER happened!
In a
case
brought by Gary Kreep of the United States Justice Foundation on behalf
of Ambassador Alan Keyes, Judge Michael P. Kenny threw out a subpoena
issued to Occidental College to provide copies of Obama's records of
attendance. Now there may be another case or another finding, but
that's the last info I have.
Of course, these rumors could be put
to rest if Obama would just release his bona fides, instead of spending
more than $1 million dollars on lawyers.
According to
Politico,
"the FEC allows elected officials to use campaign funds to pay legal
fees only if the action/investigations arise as a result of their tenure
in office or campaigns."
That seems to be a fairly
straightforward
rule by the FEC.
However, Obama is illegally using campaign funds
to fight the disclosure of his college records from Occidental because
they might show that he enrolled as a foreign citizen. Why else would
he hire a high-priced lawyer whose other clients include Amazon,
Starbucks, and Microsoft? His campaign has
spent almost $700,000 on just this one law firm -- and he has other
law teams actively denying the American People reasonable access to his
birth certificate and scholastic and medical records.

Subsidized |
I have never viewed what he said on the Occidental College
scholarship application as particularly significant. Along with
the remainder of the Indonesian citizen and activities evidence,
most of which has also been scrubbed. As a lawyer, I
recognize that there is a much broader legal issue behind the
"natural born citizen" Constitutional provision if it ultimately
proved that he was in fact born in Hawaii, to which this
Indonesian citizen evidence would be relevant. However
having been in court once or twice and looking at the likely
development of a courtroom legal controversy over this issue, I
have come to the relatively firm conclusion that if he could
ultimately prove he was born in Hawaii, he is going to remain
President of the US, notwithstanding what looks like a
reasonable legal Constitutional argument that he still doesn't
qualify. That is just how it is. So I have ignored the
evidence behind the rest of these arguments. Although I will say
that a year ago, in the early stages of the long thread, a link
was posted to a person who had been at Occidental College in his
period or who had been involved with getting him there (maybe
not a fellow student) who as I recall stated that he had been
subsidized as a foreign student from Indonesia. I ignored
that--in the modern world, kids going to college get all the
financial aid they can get on any basis they can get it and it's
just part of the dance of dealing with the educators who have
constructed an uneconomic and unfair admissions system. Just
part of life. But I think that comment was the origin of the
inquiry about what he might have said to Occidental. My
interest in the issue has continued because as a lawyer who has
been involved in legal contests of this variety, my judgment is
that it is pretty clear that he was in fact born at Coast
Hospital in Mombassa Kenya. And I will tell you that the
next upcoming round is likely to get into the factual contest
over where he was born. I expect to see much better fake
documents than we have seen to date. I expect that ultimately,
officials at the state of Hawaii will decide to scrub their
records of whatever offending documentary material they have
that does prove he was born in Kenya; and we will be left with
needing to introduce documents and evidence on the subject
ourselves. I think Polarik has been in a courtroom
before and understands what we are likely to face. It isn't
going to be enough that it turns out that once Hawaii gets done
with their files, there is no real evidence that he was born in
Hawaii. Although he ought to be required to prove he was born in
the US and that he meets whatever other legal test is implicit
in the "natural born" requirement, that isn't going to be the
way the courtroom argument will come out. It is going to
be necessary to at least make a prima facia case that he was
born in Kenya. For that purpose, it would be very helpful to get
our hands on the record certification document that has been out
there floating around. I am concerned that the Opposing Forces
may have reached it first.

Guilty Plea In Obama Student Loan Records
Case |
The Daily Caller
is reporting that the last of nine former employees of a U.S.
Department of Education contractor charged with unlawfully viewing
Barack Obama’s student loan records has pleaded guilty.
Online
court records show that 54-year-old Andrew Lage of Iowa City pleaded
guilty Thursday in U.S. District Court in Davenport to exceeding
authorized computer access. Lage faces up to a year in prison when
sentenced in December. A telephone message for his attorney Friday
wasn’t returned.
The nine defendants worked in Iowa for Vangent
Inc. They were accused of viewing the records while Obama was a
candidate for president, president-elect or after the inauguration.
Seven others also have pleaded guilty, while one was convicted at
trial. Three have been sentenced so far, to probation or community
service.
Isn't it
interesting that individuals and groups who have correctly used the
legal system to force Obama to release his hidden records can't get a
hearing, but if anyone tries to peek -- whack! -- they're in court in a
heartbeat -- except for
this guy, who scrubbed Obama's passport records
-- he got a big job. |
