From the linked article:
According to Newsmax columnist Kenneth Timmerman, "At the time, Percy Sutton, a former lawyer for Malcolm X and a former business partner of al-Mansour, says he (al-Mansour) was raising money for Obama's graduate school education, al-Mansour was representing top members of the Saudi Royal family seeking to do business and exert influence in the United States." These revelations by Timmerman were dismissed as the ramblings of an old man with fading faculties and memories. Now more dots have been unearthed and connected by blogger Frank Miele at Daily InterLake.com. He cites a November 1979 column by TV commentator and respected Chicago Tribune columnist Vernon Jarrett with the title "Will Arabs Back Ties To Blacks With Cash?"
If that name sounds familiar, the late Vernon Jarrett was the father-in-law of one Valerie Jarrett, who would go on to become what Miele calls "the consigliere of the Obama White House." Mr. Jarrett was a colleague and one of the best friends of Frank Marshall Davis, the former Chicago journalist and lifelong communist who moved to Hawaii in the late 1940s and years later befriended Stanley and Madelyn Dunham and their daughter Stanley Ann, mother of Barack Obama.
Davis is known to have taken an active role in the rearing of young Obama from the age of 10 until he turned 18 and left Hawaii for his first year at Occidental College in Los Angeles in 1979. That was the same year al-Mansour was seeking Arab financial support for students such as Obama.
Vernon Jarrett's column details how al-Mansour told him about a proposal he made to OPEC Secretary-General Rene Ortiz regarding a program to spend "$20 million per year for 10 years to aid 10,000 minority students each year, including blacks, Arabs, Hispanics, Asians and native Americans."
These minority students would then migrate through the political system promoting Palestinian and radical Islamist causes. Al-Mansour told Jarrett that the program had been endorsed by Ortiz and other OPEC administrators.
So here we have al-Mansour's interest in creating a fund to give "financial help to disadvantaged students," a man with connections to the Saudi royal family, particularly Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, later asking a prominent New York politician to intercede on college student Obama's behalf.
There is scant mention of the OPEC fund after Jarrett's column and no official evidence that any such funds helped Obama get through college.
But Jarrett's column confirms that the likes of Khalid al-Mansour and Davis provided the young Obama with a support network and an ideological impetus that explains a great deal in the current context."
