Obama admirer to teach ‘Understanding Obama’ class at Harvard Law School

Quote:
Not every Harvard Law School alumnus has a class devoted to him — but then, President Barack Obama is not just any alumnus.

According to the Harvard Law School course catalog, professor Charles Ogletree will be teaching a reading group called “Understanding Obama” for one classroom credit during the 2013 spring term.

“This reading group will focus on the way in which race, religion, and politics have impacted the development of President Obama as a leader,” the Harvard Law School Course Catalog explains. “We will explore his views as a biracial child, his time as a student at Harvard Law School, the successes and failures of his political campaigns, and the way religion and his views on faith nearly derailed his campaign. Finally, time will be spent analyzing the challenges he faces as president of the United States in establishing both his domestic and global policies.”

Obama graduated from Harvard Law School in 1991. He was elected the first African-American president of the Harvard Law Review in 1990.

Ogletree was a mentor to both President Obama and Michelle Obama while they were Harvard law students.
Can you believe someone paying (or getting loans for) tens of thousands of dollars for their kid to take this course????...Good luck in life!...

Extra credit if you can remember what the design was on the Narcissist-In Chief's personal presidential seal...

Finally got me riled up about this obama thing. That's the last straw. We need to march for an understanding bush course also. How he almost read a book in college? Why he took up mountain bikeing cuz he's scared of horses? Blowing up frogs? gettin' drunk? c'mon, ideas ideas ideas.

lol.....there is not much to know. Obama stands for hate, racism, class warfare, division and socialism. It's that simple.

Cotton, your post is riddled with cancer, Dr. Wally recommends chemo via attending this WTF? of a class.

When I was taking classes, they actually offered a course on Myspace, no joke. Between that and this oddball class, it does make you wonder what they're smoking in the faculty break room.

Also makes you wonder why tuition prices are going up.

What ARE these professors doing?!?

These are the kinds of courses I used to sign up for in University though. You were pretty much guaranteed to do well just for taking it.

The Koch brothers support a college that teaches a constitutional republic, and the freemarket economy. That's demonized. Meanwhile in the larger educational system sign up for socialism, and breeze through without ever having to think.

I don't dislike Obama because he's black. I dislike him because he's a Socialist.
