Obama could have been a C student. Unlike other major candidates, he refused to release any of his academic records for some reason. Maybe embarrassent? Afterall, he did use a lot of blow during his student years. I believe Occidental, Columbia and Harvard Law all have affirmative action admissions policies. And we now know that wealthy Muslim Khalid Al-Mansour and influential Black Panther attorney Percy Sutton had to take extraordinary steps to get him into Harvard Law. Much was made about the fact that he was elected first black editor of the Harvard Law Review by his classmates. But that honor had nothing to do with grades or class rank. It is a glorified popularity contest.

Regarding your suggestion that Obama administration "A students" will do a better job preventing terrorist attacks, I hope you're right. But everything he has done so far points in the opposite direction. No coercive interrogation techniques can be used anymore, no matter what. And the scum Gitmo prisoners will be getting access to American courts. Great. Whatever US town they incarcerate them in would make a great martyrdom target.
