We could dub Barack Obama the “American man of mystery.” There is so much about him that is unknown and so much of it that does not make sense. Jack Cashill, who is an incredible researcher and even better writer, has done a great job of deconstructing Obama’s writings, or in many cases, his ghost written book and explained a lot of his background.
But there is one mystery no one has gone into. What is it?
It is the career of Barack Obama, Attorney.
First, I am an attorney. If you are not an attorney or not in the legal profession, there are some things about the profession you may not understand but when you do, they make some of the decisions that Barack Obama made even more puzzling.
The legal profession is very much a caste system. Two things determine your place in the caste. The first is your law school and second, your class ranking in law school.
Law schools are divided into four tiers. The top tier are the elite schools, such the Ivy League schools and other high-powered private law schools. The second tier are good private law schools and the really good state run law schools. The third tier are the rest of the accredited law schools and the fourth tier are the law schools that are not accredited by the American Bar Association.
Within a law school, your standing is determined by your class rank and your membership in the Law Review. If you go to one of the prestigious top tier law schools, your career path is set. You will get a prestigious Federal Appellate clerkship, possibly followed by a Supreme Court Clerkship and then a job offer from one of the law firms that make up what is called “big law.”
The legal profession is divided between “big law” and everyone else. Big law is the big law firms out of New York, Washington, Chicago and LA. Legal academia is also a part of big law as many law professors will come from or go to big law. If you were not on law review at your law school and you did not go to a decent law school, you can forget about big law.
The Editor of the Law Review is considered the top prospect out of every law school and the Editor of the Harvard Law Review is the legal equivalent of the Heisman Trophy winner in college football.
In 1990, Barack Obama became the Editor of the Harvard Law Review. Severn current or former Supreme Court Justices have been editors of the Harvard Law Review. Dozens of other prominent people have been editors including convicted Soviet spy Alger Hiss.
Obama became the Editor of the Harvard Law Review and his path was set. He would have ended up clerking for a Supreme Court Justice, then accepting a position at one of the nation’s top law firms.
Instead, Obama graduated from Harvard and then went back to Chicago to work as a “community organizer.”
This makes absolutely no sense. It is like the Heisman Trophy and presumptive number one NFL draft pick suddenly announcing he was going to forego an NFL career to play non-competitive beach volleyball!
Obama, as far as I know has never disclosed how he got to Harvard. He was a self admitted poor student, yet he managed to get into two of the most prestigious and expensive schools in American, including the most prestigious law school in the United States.
He says he paid for them with scholarships and student loans. A Harvard Law education is very expensive. Harvard accepts a little over 10% of those who apply and those who do must have stellar academic credentials. How does someone go with the presumably crushing debt load he would have had and take a job that pays next to nothing.
Barack Obama some how managed to get into Harvard Law School, get the coveted Editorship of the Law Review, thus becoming the number one legal recruit for the year he graduated and he tossed it all to go become a community organizer, a job for which a law degree is absolutely unnecessary.
None of this makes any sense. But then again so much of Barack Obama’s life makes no sense. Why did Obama do these things? According to people who knew him, he wanted to be Mayor of Chicago. That was his driving ambition. Becoming a partner in a high-powered law firm in Chicago seems like it would have been a much better route to the goal he allegedly wanted so badly.
What really happened?
We are dealing with Barack Obama. Do not ever expect to hear the true story.

Permalink Reply by Ronald W Graham on May 19, 2012 at 7:19pm I read this same article at least 31/2 years ago. Most of us knew about BHO and who paid his way to the white house. Most of America chose to ignore the truth because they wanted a black in the white house. Go figure!!
