COLLEGE PROF. CLAIMS OBAMA GROUP TRIED TO USE HER TO ‘RECRUIT’ STUDENTS

Organizing for Action, the political nonprofit that grew out of the Obama presidential campaigns, sought to use at least one college professor to recruit students for publicly advocating on behalf of President Barack Obama’s policies, one instructor claimed on Twitter.

Andrea C. Hatcher, a political science professor at Sewane: The University of the South, made the claim Tuesday.

“Been contacted by ‪@OFA to ‘recruit’ students for them. Let me be clear : I don’t shill for any interest group or party,” Hatcher said on Twitter, as reported by conservative site Twitchy.
