Every five years when I renew my clearance I have to go into great detail about all of my associations from every where I’ve worked, friends in foreign countries (which I only really have one in the UK), and my college history (including associates and transcripts). If I have to go through all of this just to maintain a standard security clearance, how did Obama somehow bypass all of this and get elected President? Did he have to answer the question “have you ever associated with organizations or groups that advocate the overthrow of the US government?” (like William Ayers). That would be a disqualifier just to hold any clearance at all.
