| Obama didn't deserve Ivy league: Donald Trump

| American Real estate mogul Donald Trump suggested in an interview on Monday in New York that President Barack Obama had been a poor student, who did not deserve to be admitted to the Ivy League universities he attended.
Trump, who is mulling a bid for the Republican presidential nomination, offered no proof for his claim but said he would continue to press the matter as he has the legitimacy of the president's birth certificate.
"I heard he was a terrible student. Not like okay, I heard he was a bad student. How does a bad student then go to Columbia and then go to Harvard? How does this happen? He's a bad student, gets in to Columbia, top, top school. Gets into Harvard, top, top, top school." he said.
Obama graduated from Columbia University in New York in 1983 with a degree in political science after transferring from Occidental College in California.
He went on to Harvard Law School, where he graduated magna cum laude 1991 and was the first black president of the Harvard Law Review.
Obama's 2008 campaign did not release his college transcripts, and in his best-selling memoir, "Dreams From My Father," Obama indicated he hadn't always been an academic star.
Trump told the AP that Obama's refusal to release his college grades were part of a pattern of concealing information about himself.
The internationally known businessman also said that the US president acted like an "idiot" for the way he handled the Libya crisis.
"I'll never forget, Obama said 'Oh the Arab League is in favour." He's all happy like an idiot. The Arab league is jumping up and down, the Arab league is in favour of us taking out (Libyan leader Moammar) Gadhafi and going into another war, a third war now," said Trump
