Reason
magazine has a recent interview with “King of Vegas” Libertarian Vice Presidential nominee Wayne Allyn Root (the fellow at right who appears to be marrying his own dog) in which he demands fellow CC ’83 grad Barack Obama release his Columbia transcript. Join us, as we take a look at some other baseless accusations, demands, and racist nonsense.

First, you should all be aware that “A vote for Obama is four years of Karl Marx, and no one should be happy about that.” Root goes on to point out that Obama’s mother was also a communist, because obviously such things are hereditary. 

Also, Root didn’t know Obama at Columbia, and neither did anyone Root knows. Except black people: “If you track down a couple of black students, they’ll probably know him. But nobody white’s ever heard of this guy,” he said.

In conclusion, Root’s GPA was probably better than Barack Obama’s because Root never saw the guy. In fact, Root is willing to wager “a million dollars cash” that Obama gained entry to Harvard Law School “based on the color of his skin.”
