I'm not all together certian that a presidential nominee has to go through a background check. Obama has a few people in his past, plus his drug usage that would disqualify them from getting a secret clearance, not to mention presidential.

Yeah, they do. There have been several articles and books written about what information has been found as a result of these background checks. If you want me to name some, I will be responding for quite a while. So, if you want find some, try an academic search engine such as Infomine or Academic Search Complete.Originally Posted by BanginJimmy
Drug usage doesn't disqualify a person from a security clearance, but a drug conviction will. Again, I have gone through this process and they will found out everything about your past, trust me on that.

I can vouch for that from personal experience..
it wont disqualify you from secret, but it will disqualify you from top secret and above. Before I got out of the Corps I tried to move into an intell MOS and I was DQ'd because of past drug usage. If smoking a little weed in HS is going to DQ me, then I am sure sniffing coke in college would DQ Obama too. Unless the rules are different for civilians that is.
