Obama was the EDITOR of the Harvard law review. His job was to EDIT others' work.
You may think that I am "pretending" that Obama has the academic credential that led him to this highly coveted post, and that seems to bother you.
Because you prefer to "pretend" that Obama has a much lower (or not at all) academic achievement. . .So, which stand seems the most reasonable? Someone elected as editor of the Harvard law review who doesn't have academic credentials . .
Or someone elected as the editor of the Harvard law review because of his academic credentials?
I guess, it's how you look at it!
