The Barack Obama/Columbia mystery gets more interesting. Here’s Libertarian vice presidential candidate Wayne Allyn Root, member of the same class with the same major as Obama, according to Obama’s bio. Root says no one, no one at all, in his class remembers Obama being at Columbia:

Class of ’83 political science, pre-law Columbia University. You don’t get more exact than that. Never met him in my life, don’t know anyone who ever met him. At the class reunion, our 20th reunion five years ago, 20th reunion, who was asked to be the speaker of the class? Me. No one ever heard of Barack! Who was he, and five years ago, nobody even knew who he was.

Now, this could very well be the kind of conspiracy theory that blows up in this guy’s face, like the one on the lefty blogs about Todd Palin’s former business partner supposedly sealing his divorce records because he had had an affair with Sarah Palin. Turns out, not that at all. He did it, ironically, to keep the lefty kooks and mainstream media from invading his privacy.

MORE: Root also wonders how Obama got into Harvard Law School if no one can even remember him coming to class. Investor’s Business Daily points out that he had someone running interference for him with Harvard, a man with close Saudi ties. This is not speculation, by the way, unlike the made-up “facts” the MSM and lefty blogs are turning out on Sarah Palin. Will the MSM put as much investigative energy into the Obama-Saudi connection as they did to the Trig-is-not-Bristol’s-baby hoax?
