Where was this level of scrutiny when our Dear Leader was a mere State Senator and candidate for the Presidency?

It's amazing to me how anyone resembling a conservative gets the extreme proctologic examination versus The One who skated into office without any semblance of vetting.

    And with the expectation of a little reward if the candidate they donate to is elected like..oh, I don't know,,,maybe an ambassadorship in Tahiti.

    I would kind of prefer it if Walker had not been so
    interested in being a politician, as opposed to want
    ing to live his own life. But the fact of his not hav-
    ing a college degree is no demerit to me. Washing-
    ton didn't have one; Lincoln didn't have one. I very
    much wanted Scott Walker to run in 2012. I don't
    agree with the "war on drugs",however; I consid-
    er such laws a violation of individual rights, as
    long as the drug-taking and trafficking involve
    only consenting adults and people who are not
    under a special obligation to abstain (military,
    police, civilian driving a car, etc). Still, Walker
    seems like one of the few actually to have guts
    and a spine; at this point, I could vote for him
    for President with enthusiasm.

    But we have divided government for awhile now, where little gets done. Imagine if Obama had both houses of congress and the supreme court to validate his socialist tendencies.

    I want a good administrator as president, not some sort of "king". I voted for Ross Perot when he ran for that reason. I would vote for Donald Trump now, simply because he would say it like it is. The best situation we can have is a divided government which can actually do NOTHING in terms of spending my money. At least Trump would not hide in the shadows like Obama.

    Presidency is a sham really. The president is picked by groups of supporters as the one who can maneuver and lie to the voters to get elected and further THEIR cronyism. The supporters are needed to provide the $$ to accomplish that maneuvering and lying through TV ads.

    To me, Walker's lack of a degree and his working record are plusses. It seems to me that most graduates come out of college dumber than when they went in. There are a few notable exceptions. As governor, he has put in one hell of a good performance. I'm almost tempted to tell the brightest and the best, that if you want a career in politics, follow Walker's example and get to work and drop out.

    Now they are trumpeting the virtues of the first female president. When does a handicapped Jew get a shot?

    Actually, they can't. And they've been trying for about 10 yrs, first when Walker was the Milwaukee County Executive (and had to deal with an overly liberal county board), and now as governor. His opponent, the dems, and the unions all dug with all their might, including the Milwaukee County DA who's wife was a union advocate who has conducted 2 secret investigations into every aspect of Walker since his first public election, and nobody can find anything even remotely questionable. Walker's probably the most vetted candidate in US history. The worst they could find was a county employee who took a phone call on campaign business and didn't walk out of the county government office - and they prosecuted her and she's spending 3 yrs in jail! Yet the wife of the Milwaukee Mayor (who ran against Walker for Governor) used actual equipment of the city to send out campaign material, but she has never been charged with anything. Total hypocrisy.

    A bunch of penny-ante and picayune allegations and allusions which they have had to go back to his college days to dig up. They don't bother examining all of his accomplishments - winning and running one of the most liberal counties in the state, winning the governorship and being the first governor to survive a recall - despite the Dems and unions throwing everything they could at him. And not one, but two, "John Doe" investigations (basically open ended fishing expeditions) by a highly partisan county district attorney, who's wife is a teacher union advocate and vocal opponent to the actions of the governor.

    Liberal white guilt, "evolved intellects" in love with the idea of electing a black president for the first time, a free pass from the liberal media, and viola! No scrutiny.

    the reason there is no documentation is because the guy is a con-man. 'THE ESSENCE OF A CON-MAN'S LIE, OF ANY SUCH LIE, NO MATTER WHAT THE DETAILS IS THE ATTEMPT TO GAIN A VALUE BY FAKING CERTAIN FACTS OF REALITY" "NOW YOU CAN'T GRASP THE LOGICAL CONSEQUENSES OF THAT KIND OF POLICY? FOR INSTANCE, SINCE ALL FACTS OF REALITY ARE INTERRELATED, FAKING ONE OF THEM LEADS THE PERSON TO FAKE OTHERS; ULTIMATELY , HE IS COMMITTED TO AN ALL-OUT WAR AGAINST REALITY AS SUCH. BUT THIS KIND OF WAR NO ONE CAN WIN. IF LIFE IN REALITY IS A MAN'S PURPOSE, HOW CAN HE EXPECT TO ACHIEVE IT WHILE STRUGGLING AT THE SAME TIME TO ESCAPE AND DEFEAT REALITY."" THE CON-MAN'S LIES ARE WRONG ON PRINCIPLE. TO STATE THE PRINCIPLE POSITIVELY; HONESTY IS A LONG RANGE REQUIREMENT OF HUMAN SELF-PRESERVATION AND IS, THEREFORE, A MORAL OBLIGATION." SAID BY AYN RAND TO LEONARD PEIKOFF AND REPORTED SO TO SPEAK BY LP IN HIS FORD HALL FORUM TALK ABOUT HIS 30 YEARS WITH AYN RAND.
    as i see it 0 is an imoral person and has lived a lie since he was in high school.

    It's what happens when the media refuses to do its job.

    The biggest downfall to politics is a lack of responsibility, which predicates a knowledge of what should be going on and what actually happened. The failure of the MSM to report either of these two is a direct affront to the protections they enjoy from the First Amendment.

    I'll never forget how The One Chairman Pinocchio began to rule what became the most duplicitous scandal-cluttered banana republic styled regime ever.
    As fast as he stated that his presidency would be the most transparent ever, it's in the news that all his school records vas verbotten to the public.
    I'm all like--WHAT?!?!???
    It was a sign of things to come . . .
    (I know I misspelled that comic book German).

    Ditto Clinton being vetted by the media prior to being elected.

    PS
    I didn't inhale either.

    I'll guess you are being sarcastic Mamaemma.

    I'll bet that any number of people can come up with something worst that he is.

    We still don't know this about our current fearless leader. In fact, it seems that for all of his years spent in academia, no one remembers him... or at least the media can't find one who does.

    So the worst they can come up with is that he is ambitious.

    To which you have most likely deduced the correct answers. (Foreign student aid funded by some Marxists). Can't believe his grades haven't been leaked...although I'm sure they were purged around the time he was a community organizer.
