In March 2008, on a local New York City show called “Inside City Hall,” politico Percy Sutton, told host Dominic Carter how he was asked to help smooth Barack Obama’s admission into Harvard Law School 20 years earlier.
In addition tapes of the anti-Semitic, anti-Christian, Khalid al-Mansour, have also been posted online for some time.
Although these tapes have been available, new information has surfaced. Reporter Frank Miele of Montana’s Daily InterLake newspaper unearthed a 1979-era newspaper column by Vernon Jarrett, father-in-law of Obama confidente Valerie Jarrett, discussing a plan by several influential African-American businessmen with ties to the Arab world to funnel their cash toward promising young African-American students. Among those businessmen was Mansour himself.
Mansour does allow outlets to include his connection to Obama in his biography, as though that connection is settled fact.
For example, there exists a press release from the Jamaican University of Technology touting the connection. Virtually the same language was used to introduce Mansour when he appeared on the National and International Roundtable Podcast.
