College grades are not a matter of public record. Obama has not chosen to release his college transcripts.

There is 11 grades total not counting College
For the same reason they can't see mine, or yours, or anyone else's without permission: certain records (including college transcripts and medical records) are protected by federal privacy laws, and cannot be released unless the person wishes to make them public. The vast majority of presidential candidates have never released their private records, and they are under no obligation to do so. Further, not releasing them does not mean they have something to hide. Some extremely intelligent candidates with excellent college grades still did not release their transcripts when they ran for office. In some cases, school records do get into the media-- we know, for example, that Barack Obama did in fact graduate from Harvard Law School with academic honors in June 1991. He was not famous or well-known yet, but the local media tend to cover certain graduations (Harvard, Boston University, Boston College, etc), and Mr. Obama's name and his honors were listed on the official program.
No. The President does not even have to have any college grades, but he did go to college, he is not required to disclose his college grades. In fact, Barack Obama has never released his undergraduate transcripts to the public.
We don't know, because he is under no obligation to release his grades; college grades are protected by federal privacy laws, and few presidents have released their grades; this does not mean they are hiding anything-- it just means they choose not to release them at this time. But that said, Mr. Obama has been very public about what an unfocused and indifferent student he was at Occidental, so we may assume his grades were average at best.
