Whoopi Goldberg Is Keeping Mum
In response to: Do you believe in ghosts? Have you ever had an out-of-body experience or felt an otherworldly presence you couldn't deny?
Yes, yes, yes! But they don’t like me to talk about it. I do one movie and now I can’t get rid of them.

So, now you know the heart of a woman that you’ve never known…let me guess, you also think President Obama is the anti-christ?
You need to know a little bit about how the law school admissions process works. You don’t have to be rich to get into Harvard or any other top law school.
The two major criteria are (1) undergraduate GPA; and (2) scores on the LSAT, a standardized admissions test.
Recommendations only count in the case of borderline applicants. That is, if an applicant is "on the bubble" and is competing with other applicants to get into the school, recommendations can tip the scales for (or against) the applicant.
Wealth is not relevant to admissions except in the rare case of a few "legacy" candidates for admission. If you can’t pay, you either get scholarships or take out loans to pay. Most law school graduates finish school having to repay loans.
So no one had to recommend Obama to Harvard. He probably got in because his standardized scores and undergrad grades were high.
If you think it was affirmative action alone that got him in to Harvard, then that makes it very difficult to explain how he did so well once he got there. Harvard is highly competitive. You don’t get put in charge of the law review if you’re a mediocre student.
As far as this former priest in Chicago, IL. His non for profit doesn’t pay taxes, but he obviously does. (you really aren’t very intelligent, are you?) Yes, he was accused and was never convicted of any crime. Not only was the accuser paid off, but James Flosi was also paid by the Archdiocese of Chicago to keep quiet and to drop any countersuit against the Chicago Archdioces. (translation: they made a mistake and didn’t want to be sued again) Your statements so far are not only slanderous, but deeply ignorant and far from any rational truth. Then, Senator Barack Obama had a non for profit called AidsCare Chicago listed to recieve earmarks, but it never materialized along with other organizations. In life not many people talk about the college that they went to, but mainly the degree in which they recieved. You "Frank Marks" are truly sick.
Sara Hauston, everybody!
