Claim: Obama Sold Coke in College
— Ace

Just a claim. Romney's not touching it.

A proposal of the manÂ’s story was created and viewed by Radar. The document claims that there are multiple sources who can back up allegations that Obama used and sold cocaine in college.

The alleged pal was willing to go on the record for the story and take a polygraph test, according to the source.

A Trump adviser, by the way, denies that this is his bombshell. He says he has something else.

“Mr. Trump’s announcement is substantially more important to the American people than these allegations made against the president,” Michael Cohen, special counsel to Trump, told TheDC by phone on Tuesday.

I gotta tell ya, that sounds like Birth Certificate stuff. I was hoping he had something, even though, honestly, I don't think it matters. I think this election is about the economy, period, and Obama's failed record. But still, it would be nice to have something to put Obama further off his stride.

Legal Insurrection thinks this is a "shot across the bow" for Team Obama, to let them know they can answer any stupidity Gloria Allred might push into the spotlight.

Ouch: Someone is claiming that Trump has gotten his hands on the divorce papers Michelle Obama prepared, but assumedly did not file.

Eesh. I don't know. This is harsh stuff.

I suppose one could say it's karma, given what happened to Jack Ryan.

But then, it opens the door for whatever stupidity Gloria Allred is cooking up.

Posted by: Vic at October 23, 2012 12:12 PM (YdQQY)

43 I doubt that coke allegations would get any traction. Barky has already invoked the modified limited hangout on cocaine in the memoirs Bill Ayers wrote for him. No surprise.

I don't think that Birther stuff retains any relevance to swing voters. Even if it's bombshell new information, that bloc of voters have been hit with so much crap about birth certificates from both sides that it's just random noise to them.

Hopefully if it's either one of these two, Trump will just stay quiet.

What might actually be politically useful?

If Trump has Obama's college applications, and if those applications show Obama having applied as a foreign student. There are really only two ways to parse such a revelation. Either it means Obama's not a natural born citizen after all, or Obama cynically and dishonestly gamed the system to get a leg up in academia. Neither would play well with the remaining core of persuadable swing voters.

I am not content to see him merely voted out of office.

Yeah, this has a 99.99999% chance of having no effect.  Barry's had the job for four years, it's not like one thing from before that will make any difference now. (In 2008, sure, maybe, but even then, Jeremiah Wright didn't torpedo him, so.)

Though, yeah, I *want* to see his transcripts and all that, just for the historical (and hysterical) record, but the campaign's a long slog that won't be won (or lost) by things like that.

63 We know Obama was a small time drug dealer in high school with his Choom gang. And by small-time I mean the smallest of small -- he was the leader of his druggie group which meant he collected the money and bought from the dealer and then distributed the drugs. Many will say that's not being a *real* drug dealer. But it is. That's how it starts. Barry was the only one in his group willing to deal directly with the dealer -- so he bought in large enough quantities to distribute to his friends, and collected their money either before or after. He didn't deal for a profit, but he still was a dealer.

67 OT via Politicker.com but oh so sweet! While campaigning this afternoon, Vice President Joe Biden stopped by Schmucker’s Restaurant in Toledo, Ohio for a piece of pie. However, Mr. Biden may have gotten more than he bargained for at the restaurant. While he was eating, Mr. Biden found himself in conversation with another patron who was clearly eager to see the vice president and his running mate, President Barack Obama, lose the election and leave the White House. According to the press pool report by Politico’s Donovan Slack, Mr. Biden encountered the man at the restaurant’s bar after he was served a piece of “classic custard pie.” Ms. Slack was able to eavesdrop on a bit of Mr. Biden’s conversation with the other man and initially thought it was a friendly chat because she overheard the man say, “You’re a good guy, Joe.” However, afterwards, when Ms. Slack spoke to the man, who declined to give his name, it was clear his words to the vice president weren’t all kind. “Before that, I told him to enjoy his last couple of months,” the man said, adding, “Just because you’re a good guy doesn’t mean you’re a good vice president.” Ms. Slack noted that, following the encounter, Mr. Biden “understandably took his piece of pie” and sat down at another table to eat. Perhaps the sweet custard pie helped the criticism go down a bit easier.

A) He was an idiot college kid.  W was a certified Alcoholic when he was in college.  He got over it.  No, this is not calling cocaine dealing the same as being an alcoholic, but rather referencing our national tendency to "let bygones be bygones."

B) For that to have done any good, it needed to be aired in 2008- when people were still trying to get a picture of this "blank slate" called Obama.  He's not a blank slate anymore.

C) He freaking admitted cocaine use in his biography (also: that he ate dog).  It didn't sway people then.  People don't even believe he ate dog now.

130 Many will say that's not being a *real* drug dealer. But it is. That's how it starts. Barry was the only one in his group willing to deal directly with the dealer -- so he bought in large enough quantities to distribute to his friends, and collected their money either before or after. He didn't deal for a profit, but he still was a dealer.

139 From the UK Mail article: "Donald Trump is to claim that he has unearthed divorce papers of Michelle Obama and the President, according to a respected financial pundit with links to the tycoon. It is alleged that the eccentric real estate mogul will claim that the documents show the First Lady and the President were at one point in their two decades of marriage seriously considering splitting up." From further reading in the article it sounds as if the almost divorce took place in 2000, and that Barry was so depressed over it he was almost suicidal.

I'm  of the opinion that  all this trivial stuff can only hurt Romney.  He can come out against it all he wants, but people will associate these trivial things with him.  Regardless, I don't think it will matter whether it comes out or not.  I'd   just assume it not come out whatever it is, unless it is something huge, which I  doubt because it  would have already come out. 

 

I like Trump, but he is all about one person, himself.  Nothing wrong with that,  but  he  has nothing that could be of any real value to Romney.

151 From Adam's link......


In Klein’s book, called ‘The Amateur’, he claimed that Mrs Obama prepared the divorce papers to separate from the President in 2000 following his disastrous attempt to win a House seat in Chicago.

After he lost miserably the future First Lady was supposedly disgusted that her husband had put at risk their ‘stable and secure future’.

The book claims their marriage - in its eighth year at the time - was ‘on the rocks’ with Mr Obama so depressed some of his friends feared he was suicidal.

In the end Mr Obama ran for a Senate seat in Illinois and won it in, assuming office in 2005 and restoring her faith in him.

195 YES. It *is* karma for what happened to Jack Ryan, and couldn't happen to a bigger SCOAMF if it is indeed the unfiled divorce papers. Even better is if the un-filed divorce papers list the allegations that Barack was banging a women who's name rhymes with Bera Vaker or his membership in a Chicago bathhouse. It's seedy, sure... but let's face it. This kind of dirty politics is how the JEF got where he is today, and if it helps to undo his political career... THEN GREAT!

Today, the case of Dr. Michael E. Mann vs. The National Review and The Competitive Enterprise Institute was filed in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia. Dr. Mann, a Professor and Director of the Earth System Science Center at Pennsylvania State University, has instituted this lawsuit against the two organizations, along with two of their authors, based upon their false and defamatory statements accusing him of academic fraud and comparing him to a convicted child molester, Jerry Sandusky. Dr. Mann is being represented by John B. Williams of the law firm of Cozen OÂ’Connor in Washington, D.C.

203 This could actually be very, very damaging to Obama.

Why? Because as Repubs in IL know, a lot of really nasty stuff gets put in these things by mothers who want custody of their children. 

Even before the actual child custody hearings, allegations like drug use, spousal abuse, etc, get thrown around in divorce proceedings, often with little basis in fact.

Obama was already losing, even before the selling coke thing, which won't help.  This likely won't help either, unless it's a crude forgery a la the Dan Rather Bush Guard memos.  Even then, Donald Trump isn't exactly CBS News, and Romney's staying well away from this, so it's hard to see there being much beneficial blowback to Obama.

Best case, Obama's losing 54-45 after all this, meaning he loses every swing state including MI and PA and maybe likelies such as WA and OR as well.  Worst case, he's still losing 52-47 like he is today, and Romney's probably looking at a 300ish EV win.

Bill's absolutely right.  If it really is divorce papers, it will backfire badly.  One of the best things we have going for us right now is that many people are now feeling it is safe to openly mock Obama.  Putting this shit out there will insulate him from that mockery and make people feel sorry for him.

And please, Donald F'ing Trump is going to go sanctimonious on divorce?  Really?

205 The divorce papers won't be 'news', per se; I remember reading quite some time ago that Moochelle threatened to divorce him after he lost the first (or first couple) of Chi-town politicial races; this is also a topic on which she sought the "Rev" Wright's counsel.  What would be sweet, sweet schadenfrude however, would be their divorce papers (even though not finalized), spashed all over the interwebs (hopefully with salacious details), since he won political office by exposing and disseminating a rival's SEALED divorce documents.  Maybe Moochelle was suing him for divorce based on his affairs with other men?

And something that a lot of people simply don't seem to understand is that whether something has legs or not is completely determined by how well the Media are able to suppress it or deflect it as extremist accusations. (Kook Conspiracy crap.)

People, the Media CONTROLS the discussion of American Politics, and they are All Hired from New York and Los Angeles where there is a 90% probability that they will be a Liberal Democrat, and then they join a Union to be able to work in the Industry.

We are not going to get a fair shake from them, and this is why they need to be destroyed economically.

290 **Breaking News** I've learned, through my sources, what Trump's bombshell news is. Trump has in his hands one of Obama's essays from Harvard University. Here's an excerpt: "KILL WHITEY" by Barack Soetero Kill Whitey. C-I-L-L Whitey.

Do you guys REALLY think that Obama would suddenly make up his polling deficits if Trump hits him with some lame divorce story? Do you think the unemployed guy eating cottage cheese for dinner is gonna suddenly change his vote? Do you think that Romney would suddenly become a stuttering fool, unable to distance himself from Trump, after all he's been through to get to this point? Do you think that Obama will magically regain his 2008 form, and put aside bayonets, binders and big bird?

304 As if Obama is the only politician in Washington with a cocaine habit. Onced established in town, they all abuse drugs. Power corrupts.

No one's surprised to hear it. From eye witness accounts, cocaine wasn't his only brain frying drug of choice.

He steals from everyone. In the Chicago winter, Obama turned the indigent black senior citizens out of doors to live on the street having destroyed their Altgeld Gardens public housing via union contracts to rip out everything with value, his lawyer associates pirating the tax funds to rebuild it. That's Obama's Day One of adult life. Hell. "Downright Mean." From Altgeld to spending his $16Trillion debt piled on our backs -- "social justice" making US citizens as slaves. Selling cocaine to consenting adults in college is the least of Obama's crimes against humanity.

Skepticism is best when accepting statements as factual from Douglas Kass.  During the 80's he worked as a Registered Investment Analyst for a firm in Florida, and there was always some question about his veracity as an analyst.

 Kass made equity recommendations to both retail and commercial clients. He was also discovered to have multiple Federal Tax Liens against earnings.  Unable to manage his own assets, but willing to recommend to others.  Unconscionable behavior.

As far as playing the game Obama's way "encouraging Gloria Allred," she doesn't need it. What she needs is attention, and a warm place in Democrats' thoughts. She needs to be a Hero for Wimminz.

So if Trump has film of the current White House occupant selling blow to his buds, Moo-Chelle's divorce papers or a photo of Newborn Baby Barack in his crib in Nairobi, bring it on! The more the merrier, and the more retribution dished out for past and current evils, the better.

Meanwhile, Barky was the one who said, "my pension isn't as big as yours". He should have added, "but my mansion will be ten times the size."

367 I had seen earlier that Trump's big reveal was about these supposed divorce papers. I'm not sure why he thinks they would be "more important to the American people" than a serious allegation such as selling coke, though. Of course, HIS divorce was fine fodder for the gossip mills, but a theoretical bad patch in the Obamas' marriage at around the 8 year mark isn't even remotely interesting, especially since they didn't get divorced and went on to have two children and appear to be quite happily married now. I think this ridiculous attention-whoring on Trump's part, if it is over something private and personal like this will only garner sympathy for the Obamas. There's nothing damaging about it, and most people are sick of that kind of mud-raking. Plus, there are very good, very serious reasons not to vote for Obama. That he and his wife had a rough patch over a decade ago ain't one of them.

Don't think this matters in the race for POTUS, I think the electorate broke for Romney a long time ago and the Obama Campaign knew about it before their convention.

However, if the revelation is bad enough, it could taint Zero's reputation as he becomes a private citizen once again.  Drugs and divorce are not a big deal, academic fraud could be damaging, revelations about a closeted gay lifestyle could hurt too.

All in all, Romeny would be smart to leave this alone.  I don't think this helps him because he two weeks away from winning.  The only question now is by how large of a margin.

373 Yeah this ain't going anywhere

Really, genius?

under assumption this is correct and Michelle claimed anything about his competency, drug use, unfit father, verbally abusive, etc. Obama's support is already falling away, he's in deep trouble when you look at the demographic and region support that's shifting to Romney.

If Obama loses even 2% of the married white women vote he's currently holding, this election is a route. The battleground states will all swing.

374 If Trump actually drops unfiled divorce papers tomorrow...


...I am afraid we will lose the election.

This would be a disaster of the Nth degree.  Anybody who thinks otherwise -- REGARDLESS of what allegations are contained in them -- is stuck in hyper-partisan mode.

The last thing Obama needs right now is something to shift the narrative away from "Romney is winning/Obama is collapsing."

I always thought Trump was a fucktard.

Yeah, and "business" considerations dictate that THIS NOT BE AN ISSUE.

WTF would the 'revelation' even be?  That the Obamas had a rough patch in their marriage?  Um...just like everybody else.  It would make them seem more sympathetic, and human, and just-plain-folks AT THE EXACT WORST TIME.

379 Trump had better have something better than divorce papers, which may serve to give the preznit pity.

I just want him to leave it alone. Let Allred do whatever and then answer it. And I hope it is bigger than divorce papers, more on the line of Khalidi tape or foreign aid for scholarships.

380 Jeff B. said: "This would be a disaster of the Nth degree."

If I'm not mistaken, we were two of the only Romney supporters from the beginning around here. I'm hardly a hyper-partisan, I just disagree. It all depends what's inside if this is actually it -- Doug Kass is certainly connected in the fundraising networks.

-- If there is something tangible, the story is about what's inside the newly-opened box into Obama's past.

-- If it's nothing, the media will spin a meta-story, as you're noting, about the opening of the box itself.

Trump has been a team player thus far, the fundraiser networks and PACs all talk. As long as this isn't a totally rogue move, I'm willing to wager it's the former type of story.

Posted by: Uriah Heep at October 23, 2012 01:21 PM (jhI6f)

Romney would be best served to stay away from both of these stories.  It's too late in the election cycle and these forays into the mud could turn away those undecided voters.

 

If Obama is desperate enough to take Allred's claims to the bank, let him.  I think it would backfire on Obama.

 

Plus, Romney could come out and say "Remember those sordid stories about Obama?  I didn't touch them."

406 The story of Michelle threatening to divorce Barry after he lost a political race is old and already public. That people are listening is what to expect. But really, except for their two kids, who cares?

A lot of people threaten their spouse with divorce. A lot of people get divorced. As if any Democrat or Independent is going to hold an unhappy marriage against a politician. How many Democrats and Independents stay married to their first spouse until they die? Sheesh, comparatively, how many Republicans do that?

That's a real deal breaker for all the undecideds. Pfft.

Hell, my younger sister "separated" from her spouse, took up with another man and moved out of state, and after a couple of years, returned to her no good husband. It "looked" better to church members who didn't know what a scumbag her husband is, fondling his daughter's privates. Decades later, kids grown and married, she's in the church choir, still married to the bum. 

Social conservative issues don't matter to many besides social conservatives who aren't voting for Obama anyway.

409 Don't forget the MSM also magically unsealed the divorce records of Blair Hull, favorite in the Dem primary, so they could accuse him of wife-beating.

A claim the wife herself denied. Hull dropped out of the primary though, once people read on the front page of the CSN that you beat your ex-wife...it's over.

Jack Ryan got no such sympathy when Obama unsealed his divorce records. And it would turn off blck voters (and Hispanic voters) in droves. LOL.

 

I never would have thought it would be divorce papers. It's just too funny if it is. Trump's full of surprises.  And if it isn't divorce papers and Trump's got something else, it's been fun seeing these things floated in the press. From Barry-the-coke-dealer to  Michelle wanting a divorce (probably cuz he's gay), it's  schadenfreude.

Thanks   for bringing up Hull, he gets forgotten in all the dirty-dealings O has engaged in  over the years.  Yes, unsealing divorce records is O's modus operandi; I would love it if Trump's gotten his hands on something similar.

 

On a somewhat related note: a few months ago Ulstermn's source said that if O loses we can expect many books coming out from   ppl close to the WH with all kinds of tales. I can't wait! The Truth will out.

I lived in Manhattan in 1981-83 when Obama was at Columbia.   There was coke everywhere, and lots of people bought X amount, cut it, and sold some of the diluted product for extra cash and sometimes just to be sociable or cool.   (Chicks liked the fact that some guys had coke to sell or give away.)   We already know that Obama did coke; he admitted it.   That he might have sold some wouldn't shock me, but it's not a big deal to me either.   It was a different and, at least in my memory, wilder time.   Unsubstantiated stories from thirty years ago aren't going to move any voters.

 

Now if someone has pictures of him with a rolled up twenty up his nose and a mirror on the table doing lines... that might be useful.
