The issues we seek to raise transcend party identifications and electoral contests. David Horowitz & Richard Poe from their book
Every American interested in the health of the two-party system has reason to fear
the Shadow Party. Ordinary Democrats who have been disenfranchised by the
seizure of their party's apparatus have reason to fear it most.

Notes Taken by S. Martin
Barack Obama's ties to the far Left persisted throughout his career. He hung out with "the more politically active black students, the foreign students, and the Marxist professors."
Obama writes at length about his mentoring by his grandfather's friend, a well-known communist journalist and poet, Frank Marshall Davis in his book .
Obama writes ".. we ground out our cigarettes in the hallway carpet or set our stereos so loud that the walls began to shake, we were resisting the bourgeois society's stifling constraints." (The Case Against Barack Obama by David Freddoso, page 127-128)
Obama also looked into the black nationalism of Malcolm X before discarding it as "an unworkable and ineffective approach." He also rejected the politics of integrationist assimilation - 'which helps a few upwardly mobile blacks to 'move up, get rich, and move out.' (The Case Against Barack Obama by David Freddoso, page 128)
Alice Palmer groomed Obama to succeed her as Illinois state senator when she ran for Congress in 1996. She was the editor of the Black Press Review and the only African-American to cover the 27th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union meeting in Russia. The July 19, 1986 issue of the People's Daily World, an overtly communist newspaper, wrote an article profiling Palmer's trip to Russia. They quoted Palmer as saying the Soviet Union had "a comprehensive affirmative action program which they have stuck to religiously - if I can use that word - since 1917." (The Obama Nation by Jerome Corsi, Ph.D., page 136)
To get Obama's state senate race off to a good start, Palmer arranged a function for a few influential liberals in the district, at the Hyde Park home of Weather Underground activists Ayers and Dohrn.(The Obama Nation by Jerome Corsi, Ph.D., page 137)
Palmer would never have introduced Obama to the Hyde Park political community at the Ayers-Dohrn home unless she saw an affinity between Ayers and Dohrn's radical leftist history, her own history of far-leftist politics, and the politics of Barack Obama. (The Obama Nation by Jerome Corsi, Ph.D.,page 137)
In 1995 Palmer suffered an unexpected electoral defeat and was unable to run for the Mel Reynolds congressional seat as she had planned, when she groomed Obama to replace her in the state senate. She decided that she did want to run for re-election to her Illinois seat in 1996.
Obama, however, had no intention of stepping aside from his political ambitions. He hired a fellow Harvard Law School alumnus to challenge the legitimacy of the signatures on petitions to put Palmer's name on the ballot. This succeeded so well, that he challenged the petitions of all four of his Democratic rivals and managed to run unopposed. The Chicago Tribune wrote that "a close examination of Obama's first campaign clouds the image he has cultivated throughout his political career. The man now running for president on a message of giving voice to the voiceless first entered public office not by leveling the playing field, but by clearing it." (The Obama Nation by Jerome Corsi, Ph.D., page 146) [Showed an elitist scorn for the electoral process and the will of the voters. It is consistent with the ethics and methods of Saul Alinsky, however. S.M.]
In 1995 Obama first sought the endorsement of the Marxist "New Party" in Chicago. According to "New Ground," the newsletter of the Chicago Democratic Socialists of America DSA), Obama appeared at the New Party's summer 1995 meeting to seek their endorsement in his state Senate race. The New Party, the newsletter states, contained a heavy contingent of DSA members and also members of the Committees of Correspondence for Democracy and Socialism, a splinter group that broke away from the Communist Party USA after the fall of its financial and ideological patron, the Soviet Union.
Obama obtained the New Party endorsement which required that he sign a contract with the New Party that he have a visible and active relationship with the New Party. Their endorsement did not mention his turning on Palmer and knocking her off the ballot. Apparently they believe that making an omelette requires breaking a few eggs. She supported Hilary in 2008. (The Case Against Barack Obama by David Freddoso, page 130)
Obama met his wife-to-be, Michelle, at Chicago law firm Sidley Austin. This is the same law firm where Bernardine Dohrn worked as a paralegal from 1984 through 1988. Whether Obama and Dohrn worked at the firm at the same time is unclear, but that Michelle and Dohrn worked at the firm together is well established. (The Obama Nation by Jerome Corsi, Ph.D., page 138)
When Obama graduated from Harvard Law School, he, Thomas Ayers (Bill Ayers's father) and John Ayer (Bill Ayers's brother) served together on the Leadership Council of the Chicago Public Education Fund. (The Obama Nation by Jerome Corsi, Ph.D., page 138)
In 1995, Bill Ayers co-funded the Chicago Annenberg Challenge with a $ 50 million grant program for the Chicago Public schools. Ayers selected Obama to be first Chairman of the board of the Challenge, a position Obama held for eight years until 2003, a period during which Ayers remained active with the Challenge.
These connections make laughable the claim by Obama and campaign manager David Axelrod that Obama and Bill Ayers were just neighbors, who may have known each other casually because their children went to school together. (The Obama Nation by Jerome Corsi, Ph.D., page 138) [Their children are unlikely to have been in school together due to the great difference in their ages.]
In 2001, while Obama and Ayers were both on the Woods Fund board, the foundation made a $40,000 grant to the Arab American Action Network, followed up by an additional $35,000 grant in 2002. The co-founder of the Arab American Network is Rashid Khalidi, who today is a Columbia University professor, where like Dohrn, he specializes in public school reform in Chicago. He is a harsh critic of Israel. (ibid)
Like Ayers and Dohrn, Professor Khalidi also held a political fund raising event in his home for Obama in 2002. ibid page 141)
Khalidi said he hosted the event for Obama because the two had become friends. The LA Times described Obama as a "friend and frequent dinner companion" of Khalidi when the latter lived in Chicago. (The Obama Nation by Jerome Corsi, Ph.D., page 141
Of greatest significance are the radical advisers with whom Senator Obama surrounds himself even now. [Should he become president, will he entrust such men and women with executive power, as did President Clinton, who ensured that China would have American weapons technology and become a world superpower decades sooner than they might have otherwise?]
On June 18, 2008, Obama's campaign announced its' "senior working group on national security." Among the foreign policy advisers was Anthony Lake, whom President Clinton nominated in 1996 to head the Central Intelligence Agency. The appointment had to be withdrawn for a number of reasons, among them a 1996 appearance on Tim Russert's "Meet the Press," in which Lake had said that the recently deceased Alger Hiss may not have been guilty of spying for the Soviet Union. (He later claimed he had simply been caught off-guard by the question.)
The Obama campaign's black advisory council includes Cornel West, an African-American studies professor at Princeton University who calls himself a "progressive socialist." West has written that Marxist thought is "an indispensable tradition for freedom fighters," which "becomes even more relevant after the collapse of Communism in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe than it was before." West paid a visit in early 2006 to Venezuela's left-wing strongman Hugo Chavez, who had re-written his nation's constitution to give himself unprecedented executive power and is still attempting to install himself at the ballot box as president for life. West would later say that he "went to Venezuela to see the democratic awakening taking place." Also on the black advisory council is Charles Ogletree, a Harvard law professor who argues in favor of reparations to the descendants of slaves. Ogletree "has advised Obama on reforming the criminal-justice system as well on constitutional issues."
Another foreign policy adviser, Robert Malley, had to resign after it was revealed that he had been meeting with the terrorist group Hammas, which in 2006 called for attacks against the United States. Hammas political adviser Ahmed Yousef stated in April that his group supported Obama's foreign policy ideas. (The Case Against Barack Obama by David Freddoso, page 138)
Obama recruited Sam Graham-Felsen, a hard core Marxist, to be an official blogger for his 2008 campaign. He proudly displayed a Russian Communist flag in his Harvard dorm room and was a regular contributer to the leftist publication "The Nation". He described his meeting with radical MIT professor Noam Chomsky as "a life changing experience." He did, however, presume to criticize Chompsky for his unwillingness "to compromise his beliefs for the sake of being accepted." He observed that "even if he [Chomsky] is waiting for Americans to rise up in mass movements, he's not going to spark widespread protest unless he can get more people to embrace his message." (The Obama Nation by Jerome Corsi, Ph.D., page 148-149)
It would be difficult to find so many radicals in the ranks of any of the other serious presidential campaigns from either party. (The Case Against Barack Obama by David Freddoso, page 138) [Why are so many of Obama's advisors and associates anti-American and/or Marxist or socialists?]
Among Obama's fund raisers is Jodie Evens, a co-founder of Code Pink, an activist ant-war group known for disrupting congressional hearings and organizing controversial demonstrations in front of the Walter Reed Hospital in Washington. June 2008 on a Kansas radio show she asked, "Why is being a communist anti-American?"
Alinsky [brilliant Chicago Marxist radical community agitator and organizer] disciples-the very organizers who had worked with the man himself-were the ones who hired Obama as a community organizer in Chicago in 1985. Obama has also participated in training hundreds of other in Alinsky's methods. Obama would later say that "his years as an organizer gave him the best education of his life." (The Case Against Barack Obama by David Freddoso, 139)
Alinsky said that integrity is not necessary to activism, but the appearance of integrity is important."All effective action requires the passport of morality," he wrote. He also insisted that "moral rationalization is indispensable at all times of action, whether to justify the selections or the use of means or ends."
Obama was a master of Alinsky's tactics and understood his philosophy well. (The Case Against Barack Obama by David Freddoso, page 141)
What has Senator Obama ever done other than Chicago politics as usual? He followed his party interests and the interests of his contributers in Illinois and when he reached the US Senate. He has never attempted to push or lead reform. He has even declined to help others who were reformers. That is not the record of his opponent.
Why should we entrust him with the most powerful position in the United States, with a Democratic majority in congress and Supreme Court appointments to be made and in a time of international political crisis? His economic policies of high taxation of business and citizens has been demonstrated to ruin the economy and reducing the capital gains tax has been demonstrated to stimulate it and double the taxes through the increase in business it stimulates.
Obama's ideas of taking money from citizens so that the pork barrel politicians can 'spread it around' has been a disaster in the past. The intrusion of federal government into social assistance was a failure and ruined many lives in the sixties. Repeating disastrous mistakes at this time would be catastrophic.

Bear in mind that the NAZIs were the National Socialist Party in Germany before and during World War II. Socialism began in Germany, was hijacked by Hitler who was a "disciple" of Mussolini, the "ONE" who began what is called fascism. Historically, socialism begins as what appears to be utopia - and ends as a huge government monopoly with a dictator.
The National Socialist Party was tightly organized, animated by the enthusiasm and cupidity that Hitler's oratory aroused. It found its chief popular strength in the lower middle class and farmers. Former army officers and dissatisfied intellectuals served as Nazis' main functionaries. It was built on a single leadership principle which committed each member to absolute obedience to Hitler, who claimed to be not only their military leader, but also the prophet of a new religion destined to rule for the next millennium.
Obama has mentioned that he wishes to start a "civilian army". That is what Hitler did. It was called the Gestapo. Hitler also started a youth movement to indoctrinate the youth of Germany in a cult in which Hitler was the "god". It might be wise to look closely at what kind of civilian army B.O. wants to start and who will be training it.

Obama is Hiding a Radical Past!
OBAMA IS HIDING A RADICAL PAST
By Matthew Weaver
Did you know that Barack Obama was affiliated with a leading national socialist party? Barack Obama didn’t include in his 2008 resume that he entered politics in the mid-1990s endorsed by Chicago’s leading socialists. This just keeps getting better and better. Barack Obama was an active participant in the 1990s, and a direct political beneficiary, of the Chicago New Party and, importantly, the Chicago DSA, a group of socialists affiliated with the Democratic Socialists of America.
1. Barack Obama attended and participated in meetings of the Chicago New Party and the Chicago DSA, the local affiliate
of the Democratic Socialists of America.2. Barack Obama sought the endorsement of the Chicago DSA which required rigorous scrutiny by the party’s Political
Committee as well as Mr. Obama’s signature on a contract promising “a visible and active relationship with the NP.”3. Barack Obama actively used the endorsement from the Chicago DSA.
4. Barack Obama won his DSA-endorsed and backed campaign to secure his seat in the Illinois State Senate.
5. Barack Obama continued his involvement with the Chicago DSA - including directly asking the group to join
“his task forces on Voter Education and Voter Registration" - and received their endorsements in subsequent
campaigns.Obama’s participation in and endorsement from the Chicago New Party and Chicago DSA, the local affiliate of the
Democratic Socialists of America (which is the U.S. affiliate of the Socialist International) is quite clear:1. According to the write-up on the July 1995 meeting of Chicago DSA and New Party membership, Barack Obama was
one of about 50 people attending out of their then-300 member local group. Other documents below will
demonstrate Barack Obama attended and participated in subsequent meetings.2. The New Party rigorously evaluated its candidate endorsements and claimed “a winning ratio of 77 of 110 elections.”
This was no passive endorsement.Candidates must be approved via a NP political committee. Once approved, candidates must sign a
contract with the NP. The contract mandates that they must have a visible and active relationship with the
NP. - New Ground3. Candidate Barack Obama participated as a panelist at the DSA-sponsored Town Meeting on February 25, 1996,
entitled “Employment and Survival in Urban America”. As reported in New Ground,Barack Obama observed that Martin Luther King’s March on Washington in the 1960s wasn’t simply
about civil rights but demanded jobs as well. Now the issue is again coming to the front, but he wished the
issue was on the Democratic agenda not just on Buchanan’s.One of the themes that has emerged in Barack Obama’s campaign is “what does it take to create
productive communities”, not just consumptive communities. It is an issue that joins some of the best
instincts of the conservatives with the better instincts of the left. He felt the state government has three
constructive roles to play.The first is “human capital development”. By this he meant public education, welfare reform, and a
“workforce preparation strategy”. Public education requires equality in funding. It’s not that money is the
only solution to public education’s problems but it’s a start toward a solution. The current proposals for
welfare reform are intended to eliminate welfare but it’s also true that the status quo is not tenable. A true
welfare system would provide for medical care, child care and job training. While Barack Obama did not
use this term, it sounded very much like the “social wage” approach used by many social democratic labor
parties. By “workforce preparation strategy”, Barack Obama simply meant a coordinated, purposeful
program of job training instead of the ad hoc, fragmented approach used by the State of Illinois today.The state government can also play a role in redistribution, the allocation of wages and jobs. As Barack
Obama noted, when someone gets paid $10 million to eliminate 4,000 jobs, the voters in his district know
this is an issue of power not economics. The government can use as tools labor law reform, public works
and contracts.4. Obama subsequently secured his endorsement from the Chicago DSA
The local Democratic Socialists of America affiliate issued their
Chicago DSA Endorsements in the March 19th Primary Election:Barack Obama is running to gain the Democratic ballot line for Illinois Senate 13th District. The 13th
District is Alice Palmer’s old district, encompassing parts of Hyde Park and South Shore.Mr. Obama graduated from Columbia University and promptly went into community organizing for the
Developing Communities Project in Roseland and Altgeld Gardens on the far south side of Chicago. He
went on to Harvard University, where he was editor of the Harvard Law Review. He graduated with a law
degree. In 1992, he was Director of Illinois Project Vote, a voter registration campaign that made Carol
Moseley Braun’s election to the U.S. Senate much easier than it would have been. At present, he practices
law in Judson Miner’s law firm and is President of the board of the Annenberg Challenge Grant which is
distributing some $50 million in grants to public school reform efforts.What best characterizes Barack Obama is a quote from an article in Illinois Issues, a retrospective look at
his experience as a community organizer while he was completing his degree at Harvard:“… community organizations and organizers are hampered by their own dogmas about the style and
substance of organizing. Most practice … a ‘consumer advocacy’ approach, with a focus on wrestling
services and resources from outside powers that be. Few are thinking of harnessing the internal productive
capacities, both in terms of money and people, that already exist in communities.” (Illinois issues,
September, 1988)Luckily, Mr. Obama does not have any opposition in the primary. His opponents have all dropped out or
were ruled off the ballot.5. Barack Obama Continued Attending Membership Meetings of the Chicago DSA New Party
Obama attended membership meeting on April 11, 1996, where he expressed his gratitude for their support. The
report shared that “Barack Obama, victor in the 13th State Senate District, encouraged NPers to join in his task
forces on Voter Education and Voter Registration.”6. Obama won his election with the help of the Chicago DSA’s New Party.
7. Chicago DSA notes in 1998 that Barack Obama eulogized Saul Mendelson, co-founder of the Debs Dinner.
8. In the fall of 1998, Chicago DSA’s New Ground ’s editor offered nomination of Barack Obama for reelection.
9. When Barack Obama challenged Bobby Rush for the 1st Congressional District in 2000, the Chicago DSA opted to
recommend both:For Congressman of the 1st Congressional District, the Executive Committee was faced with two very good
candidates. As we are not making endorsements but merely recommendations, we felt no conflict in
recommending both Bobby Rush and Barack Obama.Bobby Rush was the incumbent Congressman. He was also a candidate for Mayor of Chicago in the last
municipal elections, endorsed by Chicago DSA. While he hasn’t always been the ideal Congressman from a left
perspective (being a cosponsor of the “NAFTA for Africa” bill, for example), he’s generally been quite good. To
volunteer, call 773 264 7874. Contributions may be made to Citizens for Rush, 514 E. 95th St., Chicago, IL
60619.Barak Obama is serving only his second term in the Illinois State Senate so he might be fairly charged with
ambition, but the same might have be said of Bobby Rush when he ran against Congressman Charles Hayes.
Obama also has put in time at the grass roots, working for five years as a community organizer in Harlem and in
Chicago. When Obama participated in a 1996 UofC YDS Townhall Meeting on Economic Insecurity, much of
what he had to say was well within the mainstream of European social democracy.
Conclusion
Barack Obama has a long-term and sustained relationship with the Chicago DSA, an affiliate of the Democratic Socialists of America, and with the Chicago New Party. He participated in multiple membership meetings and in DSA-sponsored events, repeatedly sought their endorsement. This does not answer all questions about Barack Obama’s past relationships with multiple socialist groups. What the media need to find out is this: Has Barack Obama broken his ties with them? If so, when and why?

In late December 2008, the following advertisement was in our post office box. It concerns a book recently published by James Delingpole who is a British citizen that has been subjected to socialism in the United Kingdom for some time now. His book is called Welcome to Obamaland - I've seen your future and it doesn't work. The words in the ad follow.
Barack Obama is going to fix everything, right? That's what the liberal media keeps telling us: he's young, he's personable, he's the sum of everyone's hopes, he's the new FDR, the new Lincoln. He had nothing to do with the recession or the credit crunch or the mistakes that were made in Iraq or Afghanistan or any of the other older-regime bad things. This handsome JFK-revisited guy is going to magically sweep away all those things with his magic broomstick. Right?
Wrong. The land we love has been hi-jacked by a bunch of left-liberal fruitcakes. They don't have much of an idea of how to fix the economy. But they do know exactly how to ruin your life. And they will. In Welcome to Obamaland - I have seen your future and it doesn't work, British author James Delingpole reveals how Delingpole has seen it before: Obama is intent on implementing policies that have already been tried and failed in Britain - not that that country's socialist elite has noticed their failure. He explains how, over the next four or eight long, weary years, our taxes are going to rise, our standard of living is going to drop, and - maybe the worse thing of all for free Americans - our liberties are going to be curtailed.
Socialists, he explains, don't believe in freedom - and socialism is what we've got now. The Democrats won't call it that, says Delingpole, but the results will be the same. They'll dress it up with nice-sounding phrases like "equality", "fairness", "social justice", "freedom of choice", "affirmative action", "multiculturalism", "carbon emission reduction", "ethical foreign policy", "animal rights", and "consumer protection". Under those guises, they will push for higher taxes (needed to fund all the big new government programs Obama will assure us are necessary to ensure fairness and economic justice); enact stringent gun bans; implement government controls, initiatives, and busybody interference in your life in order to meet the imaginary threat of manmade global warming; plunge America into the nightmare of inefficiency known as socialized medicine; perpetuate the great liberal cultural death wish of unrestricted immigration; and pursue appeasement of America's enemies.
But take heart. Delingpole concludes with a number of reasons for conservatives to feel consoled even as Obamamania sweeps the nation and the world. In Obamaland, he provides conservatives with solid arguments and evidence to convince friends and coworkers who have drunk the Obama Kool-Aid to curb their enthusiasm.

The problem that even the so-called conservative media and the conservative public still have is that they are asleep. They have not read Saul Alinsky's books which outline almost everything that Obama has done and is doing. For example,
(1) Alinsky says to use "Change" as a mantra because it always works,
(2) to be a "well-integrated political schizoid" (to have the ability to tell everyone exactly what they want to hear while not believing any of it),
(3) to have an ego that cannot be shaken,
(4) to do things for one supposed reason while actually doing them for another reason that is not known to anyone else,
(5) to be unconcerned with ethics as such concern is a weakness,
(6) to realize that anything is fair in war (and this is a war),
(7) and to phrase goals in general and misleading terms which appear to be patriotic.The list of things by Obama's mentor (Alinsky) for taking over the U.S. government is a long one and the foregoing are merely a small part those things. You should note that Alinsky was a student of both Adolph Hitler and Stalin. The foregoing were used very well by Hitler when he took over Germany, enslaved the population, and killed millions of Jews, Catholics, homosexuals, and political dissidents. Although limited due to the short time that movies are allowed to play, the story of Hitler's rise to power and his fall were shown on the History Channel in their treatment of the new film that honors the German patriots who attempted to assinate Hitler, Valkyrie. If one prefers a true and personal story to the dryer paragraphs of history books, this is a film to see - as is the History Channel treatment when it is re-run on television.
One should read Alinsky's books for a more thorough understanding (available from Amazon as they have been used as textbooks in communist's schools here the United States since the early 1930s). Alinsky was a "neo-communist" genius who was dedicated to a communist world government in which all nations, including the United States, would be subservient members without the option of secession. This means taxes imposed by the world government, a world government gestapo, a world government army, and an Afro-Asian alliance with the rest of the communist bloc within that world government - that can vote to enslave or execute those who believe in freedom. Alinsky's books are Reveille for Radicals and Rules for Radicals. If you are interested in learning just how completely you have been taken in by Obama, you should read them. Otherwise look at the book report on the this website.
The somnambulent conservatives are still prattling about how stupid Obama, Pelosi, Reid, and other "Democrats" are regarding free-enterprise economics. These supposed conservatives appear to have no clue to the cunning methods used by communists to dupe the public. The communists have spent years conditioning idealistic individuals (the communists call them "useful idiots") within the population to work for socialist/communist goals. These useful idiots are now so numerous that they, working along with the communists in the U.S. government, can manipulate the rest of the public. The communist triumverate (Obama, Pelosi, and Reid) know exactly what they are doing - and they are cunning - not stupid. Their immediate goal is to create the downfall of America as the first step in an agenda of international communism. This can best be done by appearing to be stupid - but sincere - as they ruin the U.S. economy. And one wonders if most of the so-called conservatives are not also in league with the communists and using apparent stupidity as a red herring.
Added July 1, 2009
Most of this information comes from the September 1, 2008, issue of National Review, which was published too late for it to have much of an effect on the election - assuming it could have had an effect, considering the fact that the media in general was either in love with Obama or part of his communist circle.
According to Obama's autobiography, published 1995, Obama was born in Hawaii. He had a white mother and white grandparents whom he supposedly loved. When he was two years old, his black Kenyan father abandoned his mother. His early life was in Hawaii which is multiracial and Obama hardly ever encountered racism firsthand. At age six, Obama went to live in Indonesia with his white mother and Indonesian stepfather. At age ten, he went back to Hawaii and lived out the rest of his youth with his lower-middle-class white grandparents - and attending an expensive, almost-all-white prep school.
As a youth he had a black mentor who told him the "black people have reason to hate". Obama pondered this and asks whether blacks can love themselves without hating whites. This apparently led to Obama being drawn to Reverend Wright's church, as in the bio Wright's views are in plain sight.
After college, Obama had an affluent white girlfriend who loved and wanted to marry him. Her family warmly accepted him. However, Obama dumped her because she was not black, and therefore threatened him with assimilation into a white culture.
In his his book Dreams, Obama presents the history of the U.S. as story of evil and suffering. Although Obama never experienced it - and possibly wanted to do so to make his viewpoint seem authentic - he shows U.S. society as a "racial caste system" where "color and money" determine where you end up in life. He uses examples of whites abusing blacks, Japanese families interned behind barbed wire, young Russian Jews working in Lower East Side sweatshops, and hardships of dustbowl farmers. He shows Hawaii is the place where whites brought disease, conquest of the natives, and an indenturing system that kept immigrants of other races under a yoke of oppression. When he saw the Apollo astronauts return to Hawaii after splashing down in the Pacific, he asked "How could America send men into space and still keep its black citizens in bondage?"
American affluence offends Obama. As a teenager, he envied the white homes in the suburbs and liked to think of their occupants as depressed and lonely. When studying law and Harvard, he saw American consumer culture as the result of expediency or greed. And when working for a large corporation, has saw himself as a spy behind enemy lines.
Obama defines himself as a black man. As a young man, he viewed his white ancestry as an impediment to achieving authentic blackness. He had little interest in white ancestors or history [which is apparent now as he blunders his way through the China shop of our country]. He is fascinated by his black ancestry and has a deep sense of belonging when he journeys to Kenya. He views U.S. history as whites crushing blacks.
[It should be remembered that Obama wrote his books after he had gone to Alinsky's school in Chicago and after he was on his way into politics. Since Alinsky believed in lying to further the interests of young radicals, there is no reason to believe much of what Obama stated in his books unless such statements did not tend to affect his political agenda in any manner.]
Obama became a community organizer in south Chicago to save the black urban poor and the underclass (according to Obama). He states that he asked a question of himself. Homicide, drug addiction, alcoholism, out-of-wedlock childbearing, and educational failure, which are occurring within the black community, have not been influenced by white thugs - so who is responsible? Why did whites end segregation, create affirmative action, and erect a new welfare state? Obama does not answer these questions and then turns to vague charges about racism and hidden power structures - and he goes on in like manner blaming the whites. Therefore, blame for the black well-being requires must always be placed in historic context - thus, shifted to the whites. His reasoning continues as a series of rationalizations for this premise. Obama states: "The other race would always remain just that: menacing, alien, and apart."
In 2008, Heidi Swarts, a Rutgers political scientist, published Organizing Urban America: Secular and Faithbased Progressive Movements, the first book-length study of the organizing tactics and political ideologies of the Chicago-based Gamaliel Foundation and the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN). This book uncovers the veil that was kept over Obama by himself, the mainstream Media, and Obama's other supporters.
Gamaliel specializes in ideological stealth, and Obama, a master student of Gamaliel strategy (and Alinsky's techniques), used those tactics during the Presidential campaign to mask his true identity. In fact, today, Obama is still attempting to put through his socialist (and eventually communist) agenda before he is found out by too many of us for what he is. Obama has long been linked to Jeremiah Wright, Bill Ayers, Bernardine Dohrn, Father Michael Pfleger, and the militant activist of ACORN. And now it becomes known that through foundation grants, shared political activism, collaboration on legislation and tactics, and mutual praise and support, he is linked to the Gamaliel Foundation.
The Gamaliel Foundation was co-founded by its executive director, Gregory Galluzzo, who also served as a trainer and mentor for Obama during his 1980s organizing days in Chicago. The Developing Communities Project first hired Obama - and it was part of the Gamaliel network. Obama became a consultant and eventually a trainer of community organizers for Gamaliel, and he has kept his ties with Gamaliel during his time in the U.S. Senate.
Obama is proud of his role as community organizer - perhaps better called a communist agitator - who has its roots in Saul Alinsky's teachings. Dennis Jacobsen wrote a book (Doing Justice: Congregations and Community Organizing - 2001) which is part of the first-year reading list for Gamaliel organizers, laying out the underlying theology of Gamaliel's activities. Jacobsen is the pastor of Incarnation Lutheran Church in Milwaukee and the director of the Gamaliel National Clergy Caucus. Since 1992, he has been presenting his views at Gamaliel's clergy training center.
According to Jacobsen, America is a sinful and fallen nation whose pervasive classism, racism, and militarism must be resisted by authentic Christians. Although many believers are comfortable in the U.S., these unauthentic and misguided Christians have been brainwashed with the false belief that the U.S. is different from other countries, standing as a defender of freedom and democracy. He goes on to say that the urban poor are suffering and that the true Christians would be doing something about this problem. He likens the suffering of the poor in America to the Nazi Holocaust. From this, he goes on to promote community organizing as the solution.
There is nothing wrong with wanting to help the poor - or actually helping the poor. Unfortunately, when government decides that everyone should help the poor, and redistributes the wealth accordingly, everyone loses. The true solution is education of the poor when it is possible to educate them. Tearing down America as Obama seems to be doing now is typical of socialist/communist regimes but has never succeeded in doing anything by bringing everyone down to the same low level. Nevertheless, the Gamaliel people present their communist philosophy as it has always been presented - as practical, pragmatic, and down-to-earth. What Gamaliel and others like them want is for the public as a whole to give funds to the government - and this power grab is framed as "personal responsibility".
ACORN members think of themselves as "oppositional outlaws" and "militants unafraid to confront the powers that be". But ACORN has a deeper dimension that is an agenda forwarded by successive baby steps so as not to awaken the frog that is being boiled. In 2005, the Washington, DC-based Center for Community Change released a report titled Promising Practices in Revenue Generation for Community Organizing. One of the authors was Jean Rudd, Obama's friend and the president of the Woods Fund during Obama's years on that foundation's board. Buried within the report lies the story of Obama's role in expanding the Woods Fund's financial support for groups like Gamaliel and ACORN.
Since the start of Obama's career as an organizer (actually it is still going on as an organizer of the United States), he was recognized as "a great analyst and interpreter of organizing". Obama became a Woods Fund board member and then the board chairman, serving as a key advocate of increased funding for organizing - as he is doing today with our public funds going to his communist organizations such as ACORN. With the Woods Fund, Obama chaired a committee of organizers that advised the Woods Fund on finances. Its report, Evaluation of the Fund's Community Organizing Grant Program is based on big names in Obama's personal organizer network. Greg Galluzo and other Gamaliel Foundation officials were consulted, as were several ACORN organizers. Madeline Talbott, and expert on ACORN's tactics of confrontation and disruption, was one of the consultants. The report holds up Gamaliel and ACORN as models for other groups and supports Talbott's call for "a massive infusion of resources to make organizing a truly mass-based movement."
Community organizers often use confrontation, intimidation, and civil disobedience in the service of their political goals (very much at odds to what is supposed to be a peaceful democratic republic). The Woods Fund was originally a highly respected foundation that consistently supported community organizing - and Obama sought to use their reputation to expand their finances and ACORN, which he used effectively in his political campaign and to aid in causing the economic crisis which actually allowed him to attain the Presidency.
[As an aside, ACORN today (July 1, 2009) is still under investigation, has been found to be as corrupt as suspected, is changing their name to escape further notice (the usual tactic of communist organizations), and is busy demonstrating and using excessive political pressure on lending organizations to force them to lend money, once again, to those who will not be able to pay back their loans (same modus operandi as before which was a major cause of the economic crisis). It seems strange that so many people can be so ignorant as to believe that Obama, ACORN, and the various Soros-connected organizations are merely misguided do-gooders. They are actually the epitome of evil in the world today.]
Obama's tactics as a communist mole in the Presidency are based upon Alinsky's overall teachings and the details for a strategy based upon incremental legislation often designed in collaboration with Gamaliel and ACORN. He claims to be a pragmatist rather than a communist, but he is using methods that come from Gamaliel. He was a trainer for Gamaliel and ACORN as well as means for them to gain federal funding - as he is still doing by means of the bills that are hastily being proposed by the legislature, unread and happily voted in by the the communist representatives and senators.
The gist of Obama's Wood Funds report is the shifting from local to larger organizing. Obama criticizes Alinsky for being excessively focused on local issues, complaining that he did not seek to fundamentally upset the distribution of power to the wider society. According the article in National Review by Stanley Kurtz, the ultimate goal of a the efforts of Obama, Gamaliel, ACORN, and their numerous allies, is the fundamental disruption of America's power structure, and economic redistribution along race, poverty, and gender lines.
[In my view, much more is at issue here. Obama, Pelosi, Reid, Gamaliel, ACORN and the like have made a mockery of democracy by cheating in every way possible during the election. Pelosi has run the communist/Democrat-dominated House like a petty dictator with secret meetings, legislation passed at odd times and with unsurpassed speed that is unread by either Democrats or Republicans, and successful efforts at lying about what is in those bills. The bankrupting beyond repair of the United States, the weakening of the U.S. military, the allowing of more illegal aliens to enter the U.S., the blaming of U.S.-made firearms for the violence in Mexico that the communists and jihadists either allow or cause to exist, the carbon emission legislation that is attempting ruin the lives of us all, the excessive tax on cigarettes which will steal food from the children of nicotine addicts - these things and many more - all are aimed at ruining the United States. The undereducated children and moronic older people that voted in the narcissistic psychopathic communist that some call our President may be responsible for putting the last nails in our coffins. Due to their own ignorance, they will ultimately pay the price after the rest of us are gone. Unless something changes for the better soon, these silly troglodytes may never know how they became serfs after the generations of freedom that preceded their downfall. But some of us still hope that a majority of us will awaken to the fact that we are being deliberately led by traitors into what will amount to a dark age of communist feudalism.]
According to the Constitution, Treason against the United States shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort. There is no doubt that war is being levied against us by the communists within our own borders. There was a time when spies and traitors were executed. Today, we are naive enough to elect them as our President, House Speaker, Senate Majority Leader, and holders of lesser offices in our own government.
The communist take-over of the United States has been done by stealth and subterfuge. Its perpetrators are either spies, traitors, or both. They are still a very definite minority, but they are a powerful minority as long the rest of us are unaware of their presence, their intentions, and their actions. They exist in strength in our political parties, but that is merely the last step that has come about as the result of their presence in our educational institutions, our media, and our bureaucracies. Many of them are simply puppets of the Shadow Party billionaires (have you ever wondered who the real brains are that work at the other end of Obama's teleprompter?). B.O. has a law degree from a communist-dominated institution. He has learned communist organizing and law - both are being used as a means of disruption rather than growth or healing. B.O. himself is ignorant of the things that matter - so he acquires those who are equally corrupt and greedy and who have learned other things. These are his advisors. But they are there for a different purpose than are most Presidential advisors. They advise B.O. what steps should be taken for the good of the United States so that B.O. can do the exact opposite. They then advise him as to whether or not he has succeeded in understanding how to do the worst possible thing - and how to disguise his actions as "good" for the United States. Even the most stupid of Americans wakes up in morning and notices what is around him. If you have not yet noticed, take a look at what is about to befall you because you were too stupid or too lazy to care.

Freedom First Foundation has the following to say about Obama.
Sarah Hussein Obama, Obama's paternal grandmother, has publicly and repeatedly stated that she was present at Obama's birth in Kenya and that he was born a Muslim.
Frank Marshall Davis, a lifelong Marxist, was Obama's first political mentor.
In 1991, Obama joined ACORN, a grassroots Marxist organization. In the 1990s, ACORN used Obama strategy to lead a national campaign to pressure banks to offer "subprime" mortgages to low-income families. This led to a housing market crash and the current global recession.
At least three of Obama's staff - Cynthia Miller, Jennifer Mason, and Shakir Mohammad - are Nation of Islam members, a racist Muslim sect led by its founder, Louis Farrakhan.
Bill Ayers is one of Obama's closest friends. Ayers was notorious for bombing federal buildings, including the Pentagon, and for the death of police officer. Ayers helped Obama launch his political career.
Obama campaigned for Raila Odinga, a Marxist and radical Islamist (insofar as such a thing is possible). Odinga planned to replace Kenya's Western style law with brutal Islamic Sharia law.
Khalid al-Mansour, an early mentor to Black Panther founders, Huey Newton and Bobby Seale, sponsored Obama's Harvard education and introduced Obama to Saudi sponsors of terror like Saudi King Abdulluh - the one to whom Obama bowed.
For his presidential staff, Obama has chosen Marxist zealots like John Holden, Carol Browner, and Cass Sunstein (who believes government has the right to monitor the Internet and to punish those who uses speech that the government finds "false or misleading.")
Above all, we must realize that no arsenal,
or no weapon in the arsenals of the world,
is so formidable as the will and
courage of free men and women.President Ronald Wilson Reagan

When will Obama crack in public?
By Mychal Massie
At a time when many Americans can barely afford Burger King and a movie, Obama boasts of spending a billion dollars on his re-election campaign. Questioned at a recent appearance about the spiraling fuel costs, Obama said, "Get used to it" – and with an insouciant grin and chortle, he told another person at the event, who complained about the effect high fuel prices were having on his family, to "get a more fuel-efficient car."
The Obamas behave as if they were sharecroppers living in a trailer and hit the Powerball, but instead of getting new tires for their trailer and a new pickup truck, they moved to Washington. And instead of making possum pie, with goats and chickens in the front yard, they're spending and living large at taxpayer expense – opulent vacations, gala balls, resplendent dinners and exclusive command performances at the White House, grand date nights, golf, basketball, more golf, exclusive resorts and still more golf. In the 1950's they called it acting NIGGER RICH.
Expensive, ill-fitting and ill-chosen wigs and fashions hardly befit the first lady of the United States. The Obamas have behaved in every way but presidential – which is why it's so offensive when we hear Obama say, in order "to restore fiscal responsibility, we all need to share in the sacrifice – but we don't have to sacrifice the America we believe in."
The American people have been sacrificing; it is he and his family who are behaving as if they've never had two nickels to rub together – and now, having hit the mother lode, they're going to spend away their feelings of inadequacy at the taxpayers' expense.
Obama continues to exhibit behavior that, at best, can be described as mobocratic and, at worst, reveals a deeply damaged individual. In a February 2010 column, I asked, "Is Obama unraveling?” I wrote that it was beginning to appear the growing mistrust of him and contempt for his policies was beginning to have a destabilizing effect on him. <> At that time, I wrote that not having things go one's way can be a bitter pill, but reasonable people don't behave as he was behaving. He had insulted Republicans at their luncheon, where he had been an invited guest. I had speculated that was, in part, what had led him to falsely accuse Supreme Court justices before Congress, the nation and the world, during the 2010 State of the Union address.
It appeared, at that time, as if he were "fraying around the emotional edges." That behavior has not abated – it has become more pronounced. While addressing the nation, after being forced to explain the validity of his unilateral aggression with Libya, America witnessed a petulant individual scowling and scolding the public for daring to insist he explain his actions.
But during an afternoon speech to address the budget/debt, he took his scornful, unstable despotic behavior to depths that should give the nation cause for concern. Displaying a dark psychopathy more representative of an episode of "The Tudors" television series, he invited Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wisconsin, to sit in the front row during his speech and then proceeded to berate both Ryan and Ryan's budget-cutting plan. Even liberal Democrats were put off by the act. MSNBC's Joe Scarborough questioned the sanity of Obama's actions.
Today, criticism is coming from all sides. A senior Democrat lawmaker said, "I have been very disappointed in (Obama), to the point where I'm embarrassed that I endorsed him. It's so bad that some of us are thinking, is there some way we can replace him? How do you get rid of this guy?" ("Democrats' Disgust with Obama," The Daily Beast, April 15, 2011)
Steve McCann wrote: Obama's speech "was chock full of lies, deceit and crass fear-mongering. It must be said that he is the most dishonest, deceitful and mendacious person in a position of power I have ever witnessed" ("The Mendacity of Barack Obama, "AmericanThinker.com, April 15, 2011).
McCann continued: "His performance was the culmination of four years of outright lies and narcissism that have been largely ignored by the media, including some in the conservative press and political class who are loath to call him what he is in the bluntest of terms: a liar and a fraud. That he relies on his skin color to intimidate, either outright or by insinuation [against] those who oppose his radical agenda only add to his audacity. It is apparent that he has gotten away with his character flaws his entire life, aided and abetted by sycophants around him. "
With these being among the kinder rebukes being directed at Obama, and with people becoming less intimidated by his willingness to use race as a bludgeon, with falling poll numbers in every meaningful category and an increasingly aggressive tea-party opposition – how much longer before he cracks completely?
The coming months of political life are not going to be pleasant for Obama. Possessed by a self-perceived palatine mindset; that in his mind places him above criticism, how long before he cracks in public? Can America risk a man with a documented track record of lying and misrepresenting truth as a basic way of life, who is becoming increasingly more contumelious?
Hope you forward this to everyone in your address book as we are going to need every vote we can get to remove Obama. The liberals are just unable to absorb what he is doing to our country and will continue to vote for him. Just imagine what he will do to America if he gets another term!

Best Summation of Barack and Michelle Ever
By Mychal Massie(Mychal Massie is a respected writer and talk show host in Los Angeles.)
The other evening on my twitter, a person asked me why I didn't like the Obama's? Specifically I was asked: "I have to ask, why do you hate the Obama's? It seems personal, not policy related. You even dissed (disrespect) their Christmas family picture."
The truth is I do not like the Obamas, what they represent, their ideology, and I certainly do not like his policies and legislation. I've made no secret of my contempt for the Obamas. As I responded to the person who asked me the aforementioned question, I don't like them because they are committed to the fundamental change of my/our country into what can only be regarded as a Communist state.
I don't hate them per definition, but I condemn them because they are the worst kind of racialists, they are elitist Leninists with contempt for traditional America. They display disrespect for the sanctity of the office he holds, and for those who are willing to admit same, Michelle Obama's raw contempt for white America is transpicuous.
I don't like them because they comport themselves as emperor and empress. I expect, no I demand respect, for the Office of President and a love of our country and her citizenry from the leader entrusted with the governance of same. President and Mrs. Reagan displayed an unparalleled love for the country and her people. The Reagan's made Americans feel good about themselves and about what we could accomplish. His (Obama's) arrogance by appointing 32 leftist czars and constantly bypassing congress is impeachable. Eric Holder is probably the MOST incompetent and arrogant DOJ head to ever hold the job. Could you envision President Reagan instructing his Justice Department to act like jack-booted thugs?
Presidents are politicians and all politicians are known and pretty much expected to manipulate the truth, if not outright lie, but even using that low standard, the Obama's have taken lies, dishonesty, deceit, mendacity, subterfuge and obfuscation to new depths. They are verbally abusive to the citizenry, and they display an animus for civility.
I do not like them, because they both display bigotry overtly, as in the case of Harvard Professor Louis Gates, when he accused the Cambridge Police of acting stupidly, and her code speak pursuant to now being able too be proud of America. I view that statement and that mindset as an insult to those who died to provide a country where a Kenyan, his illegal alien relatives, and his alleged progeny, could come and not only live freely, but rise to the highest, most powerful, position in the world. Michelle Obama is free to hate and disparage whites because Americans of every description paid with their blood to ensure her right to do same.
I have a saying, that "to keep the only reason a person hides things, is because they have something to hide. "No president in history has spent over a million dollars to keep his records and his past sealed.
And what the two of them have shared has been proved to be lies. He lied about when and how they met, he lied about his mother's death and problems with insurance, Michelle lied to a crowd pursuant to nearly $500,000 bank stocks they inherited from his family. He has lied about his father's military service, about the civil rights movement, ad nausea. He lied to the world about the Supreme Court in a State of the Union address. He berated and publicly insulted a sitting Congressman. He has surrounded himself with the most rabidly, radical, socialist academicians today. He opposed rulings that protected women and children that even Planned Parenthood did not seek to support. He is openly hostile to business and aggressively hostile to Israel. His wife treats being the First Lady as her personal American Express Black Card (arguably the most prestigious credit card in the world). I condemn them because, as people are suffering, losing their homes, their jobs, their retirements, he and his family are arrogantly showing off their life of entitlement - as he goes about creating and fomenting class warfare.
I don't like them, and I neither apologize nor retreat from my public condemnation of them and of his policies. We should condemn them for the disrespect they show our people, for his willful and unconstitutional actions pursuant to obeying the Constitutional parameters he is bound by, and his willful disregard for Congressional authority .
Dislike for them has nothing to do with the color of their skin; it has everything to do with their behavior, attitudes, and policies. And I have open scorn for their constantly playing the race card.
It is my intention to do all within my ability to ensure their reign is one term. I could go on, but let me conclude with this. I condemn in the strongest possible terms the media for refusing to investigate them, as they did President Bush and President Clinton, and for refusing to label them for what they truly are. There is no scenario known to man, whereby a white president and his wife could ignore laws, flaunt their position, and lord over the people, as these two are permitted out of fear for their color.
As I wrote in a syndicated column titled, "Nero In The White House" - "Never in my life, inside or outside of politics, have I witnessed such dishonesty in a political leader. He is the most mendacious political figure I have ever witnessed. Even by the low standards of his presidential predecessors, his narcissistic, contumacious arrogance is unequalled. Using Obama as the bar, Nero would have to be elevated to sainthood ... Many in America wanted to be proud when the first person of color was elected president, but instead, they have been witness to a congenital liar, a woman who has been ashamed of America her entire life, failed policies, intimidation, and a commonality hitherto not witnessed in political leaders. He and his wife view their life at our expense as an entitlement - while America 's people go homeless, hungry and unemployed."
In case anyone believes that Mychal Massie is being racist, bear in mind that he is an African American.
Obama's Challenge Today (July 2012)
The United States Justice Foundation (USJF) is taking legal action against B.O. as the "pretender to the throne". B.O. and Hillary Clinton are party to the U.N. attempt to confiscate firearms (against our Bill of Rights in the Constitution). B.O. is behind many other measures to numerous to mention here.
The document placed on the Whitehouse website was falsified (many have shown this to be the case), and according to the USMJ, B.O. has a Connecticut-based social security number when he was never in Connecticut. According to the USJF, each Social Security number has the first three digits indicating the state of birth. The numbers for Connecticut range from 040 to 049, and B.O.'s first three digits are 042. But B.O. has never resided in Connecticut if we are to believe what he says in his own book. Social Security numbers are not re-issued.
It appears that B.O. has committed fraud which is a criminal act. The indictment by a Federal Grand Jury is the means by which justice is dispensed in this case. B.O. can be taken down and should be taken down in this manner.
There is a movement to have Congress insist that B.O. allow experts to carefully examine his supposed birth certificate. This would be very unpleasant for B.O. because it is already obvious to some of us that his birth certificate is forged.
Impeachment (much too good for him)From the Tea Party Campaign comes one of the most concise lists of reasons to impeach the enemy agent that has usurped the Presidency of the United States.
(1) B.O. (Obama) is illegally occupying the office of the President. He is not a natural born citizen, and has produced a fraudulent birth certificate (this is a fact and easily understood as such by anyone who bothers to pay attention to what has been discovered).
(2) The social security number attributed to B.O. was issued in Connecticut, where B.O. has never resided. B.O. is therefore guilty of identity theft.
(3) B.O. illegally initiated military action in Libya, allowing the U.N. Security Council to declare war for the United States instead of the U.S. Congress as required by the Constitution.
(4) B.O. has pledged over $250 billion to the International Monetary Fund, in the form of "Special Drawing Rights", without consulting Congress of or having the money appropriated in accordance with Constitutional requirements.
(5) B.O. has ignored the Constitutional requirement that the U.S. Senate "advise and consent" on high-level Administration appointees, by appointing dozens of "czars" who answer only to B.O. This is a form of dictatorship.
(6) B.O. has instituted a number of radical initiatives, including the cap and trade energy tax, expanded domestic surveillance and wire taps, and an illegal alien amnesty, by executive order or by agency regulation instead of legislative action as required by the Constitution.
(7) B.O. has personal knowledge of the "Fast and Furious" project and its subsequent cover-up, run by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, that allowed over 2,000 guns to fall into the hands of Mexican drug cartels, and least one of which was used in the murder of a U.S. Border Patrol agent.
(8) B.O. has failed to secure our southern border, allowing millions of illegal aliens to invade the U.S. He then manipulated government statistics to cover up this fact.
Before the election, most of the American media, having been taken over by the Communists here, would not vet B.O. (he is one of their own). In fact, they went to great lengths to aid him in his campaign. After the election, B.O. did everything he could to increase the power of executive branch - so he could become a Communist dictator. In my opinion, impeachment should be only the first step. B.O. must be found guilty, removed from office, and then he and his minions should all be tried in criminal courts and found guilty of treason or worse. Finally, they must be executed just as were the Rosenbergs when they aided in handing our atomic secrets to the Russians.

Obama's college roommate speaks out...by Wayne Allyn Root
June 6, 2010Barack Obama is no fool. He is not incompetent. To the contrary, he is brilliant. He knows exactly what he is doing. He is purposely overwhelming the U.S. economy to create a systemic failure, economic crisis, and social chaos - thereby destroying capitalism and our country from within.
Barack Obama is my college roommate (Columbia University, class of '83). As Glenn Beck correctly predicted from day one, Obama is following the plan of Cloward & Piven, two professors at Columbia University. They outlined a plan to socialize America by overwhelming the system with government spending and entitlement demands.
Add up the clues below. Taken individually, they are alarming. Taken as a whole, it is a brilliant Machiavellian game plan to turn the United States into a Socialist/Marxist state with a permanent majority that desperately needs government to pay for [its] survival... and can be counted upon to always vote for bigger government. Why not? They have not responsibility to pay for it.
Universal health care.The health care bill had very little to do with health care. It had everything to do with unionizing millions of hospital and health care workers, as well as adding 15,000 to 20,000 new IRS agents (who will join government employee unions). Obama doesn't care that giving free health care to 30 million Americans will add trillions to the national debt. What he does care about is that it cements the dependence of those 30 million voters to Democrats and big government. [It also is a means of ridding the nation of the older and wiser voters who are able to comprehend what is happening under Obama.] Who but a socialist revolutionary would pass this reckless spending bill in the middle of a depression?
Cap and trade.Like health care legislation having nothing to do with health care, cap and trade has nothing to do with global warming. It has everything to do with redistribution of income, government control of the economy, and a criminal payoff to Obama's biggest contributors. Those powerful and wealthy unions and contributors like GE, which own NBC. MSNBC and CNBC can then be counted on to support everything Obama wants. They will kick back hundreds of millions of dollars in contributions to Obama and the Democratic Party to keep them in power. The bonus is that all the new taxes on Americans with bigger cars, bigger homes and businesses help Obama "spread the wealth around."
Make Puerto Rico a state.Why? Who's asking for a 51st state? Who's asking for millions of new welfare recipients and government entitlement addicts in the middle of a depression? Certainly not American taxpayers. But this has been Obama's plan all along. His goal is to add new Democrat senators, five Democrat congressmen, and million loyal Democrat voters who are dependent on big government.
Legalize 12 million illegal immigrants.Just giving these 12 million potential new citizens free health care alone could overwhelm the system and bankrupt America. But it also adds reliable new Democrat voters who can be counted on to support big government. And add another few trillion dollars in welfare, aid to dependent children, food stamps, free medical care, education, tax credits for the poor, and eventually social security.
Stimulus and bailouts.Where did all that money go? It went to Democrat contributors, organizations like ACORN, and unions - including billions of dollars to save or create jobs of government employees across the country. It went to save GM and Chrysler so that their employees could keep paying union dues. It went to AIG so that Goldman Sachs could be bailed out (after giving Obama almost $1 million in contributions). A staggering $125 billion went to teachers (thereby protecting their union dues). All those public employees will vote loyally Democrat to protect their bloated salaries and pensions that are bankrupting America. The country goes broke, future generations face a bleak future, but Obama, the Democrat Party, government, and the unions grow more powerful.
Raise taxes on small business owners, high income earners, and job creators.Put the entire burden on only the top 20 percent of taxpayers, redistribute the wealth, punish success, and reward those who did nothing to deserve it (except vote for Obama). Reagan wanted to dramatically cut taxes in order to starve the government. Obama wants to dramatically raise taxes to starve his political opposition.
With the acts outlined above, Obama and his regime have created a vast and rapidly expanding constituency of voters dependent on big government; a vast privileged class of public employees who work for big government; and a government dedicated to destroying capitalism and installing themselves as socialist rulers by overwhelming the system.Add it up and you've got the perfect Marxist scheme - all devised by my Columbia University college classmate using the Cloward & Piven Plan.

WASHINGTON POST HITS OBAMA!
Finally, the Washington Post speaks out on Obama! This is very brutal, timely though. As I'm sure you know, the Washington Post newspaper has a reputation for being extremely liberal. So the fact that its editor saw fit to print the following article about Obama in its newspaper makes this a truly amazing event and a news story in and of itself. At last, the truth about our President and his obvious socialist agenda are starting to trickle through the protective wall built around him by our liberal media.
I too have become disillusioned.
A brilliant commentary out of none other than the Washington Post.
18 Jan 2013 By Matt Patterson (columnist - Washington Post, New York Post, San Francisco Examiner)[I am told that the following article actually appeared on August 18, 2011, on a conservative website called American Thinker. The Washington Post claims that the writer is not employed by them. However, the article itself is right on regardless of when or where it was originally published.]
Years from now, historians may regard the 2008 election of Barack Obama as an inscrutable and disturbing phenomenon, the result of a baffling breed of mass hysteria akin perhaps to the witch craze of the Middle Ages. How, they will wonder, did a man so devoid of professional accomplishment beguile so many into thinking he could manage the world's largest economy, direct the world's most powerful military, execute the world's most consequential job? Imagine a future historian examining Obama's pre-presidential life: ushered into and through the Ivy League despite unremarkable grades and test scores along the way; a cushy non-job as a "community organizer"; a brief career as a state legislator devoid of legislative achievement (and in fact nearly devoid of his attention, so often did he vote "present"); and finally an unaccomplished single term in the United States Senate, the entirety of which was devoted to his presidential ambitions.
He left no academic legacy in academia, authored no signature legislation as a legislator. And then there is the matter of his troubling associations: the white-hating, America-loathing preacher who for decades served as Obama's "spiritual mentor"; a real-life, actual terrorist who served as Obama's colleague and political sponsor. It is easy to imagine a future historian looking at it all and asking: how on Earth was such a man elected president?
Not content to wait for history, the incomparable Norman Podhoretz addressed the question recently in the Wall Street Journal: To be sure, no white candidate who had close associations with an outspoken hater of America like Jeremiah Wright and an unrepentant terrorist like Bill Ayers, would have lasted a single day. But because Mr. Obama was black, and therefore entitled in the eyes of liberal Dom to have hung out with protesters against various American injustices, even if they were a bit extreme, he was given a pass. Let that sink in: Obama was given a pass - held to a lower standard - because of the color of his skin.
Podhoretz continues: And in any case, what did such ancient history matter when he was also so articulate and elegant and (as he himself had said) "non-threatening," all of which gave him a fighting chance to become the first black president and thereby to lay the curse of racism to rest? Podhoretz puts his finger, I think, on the animating pulse of the Obama phenomenon - affirmative action. Not in the legal sense, of course. But certainly in the motivating sentiment behind all affirmative action laws and regulations, which are designed primarily to make white people, and especially white liberals, feel good about themselves.
Unfortunately, minorities often suffer so that whites can pat themselves on the back. Liberals routinely admit minorities to schools for which they are not qualified, yet take no responsibility for the inevitable poor performance and high drop-out rates which follow. Liberals don't care if these minority students fail; liberals aren't around to witness the emotional devastation and deflated self-esteem resulting from the racist policy that is affirmative action. Yes, racist. Holding someone to a separate standard merely because of the color of his skin - that's affirmative action in a nutshell, and if that isn't racism, then nothing is.
And that is what America did to Obama. True, Obama himself was never troubled by his lack of achievements, but why would he be? As many have noted, Obama was told he was good enough for Columbia despite undistinguished grades at Occidental; he was told he was good enough for the US Senate despite a mediocre record in Illinois; he was told he was good enough to be president despite no record at all in the Senate. All his life, every step of the way, Obama was told he was good enough for the next step, in spite of ample evidence to the contrary.
What could this breed if not the sort of empty narcissism on display every time Obama speaks? In 2008, many who agreed that he lacked executive qualifications nonetheless raved about Obama's oratory skills, intellect, and cool character. Those people - conservatives included - ought now to be deeply embarrassed.
The man thinks and speaks in the hoariest of clichés, and that's when he has his Teleprompters in front of him; when the prompter is absent he can barely think or speak at all. Not one original idea has ever issued from his mouth - it's all warmed-over Marxism of the kind that has failed over and over again for 100 years.
And what about his character? Obama is constantly blaming anything and everything else for his troubles. Bush did it; it was bad luck; I inherited this mess. It is embarrassing to see a president so willing to advertise his own powerlessness, so comfortable with his own incompetence. But really, what were we to expect? The man has never been responsible for anything, so how do we expect him to act responsibly?
In short: our president is a small and small-minded man, with neither the temperament nor the intellect to handle his job. When you understand that, and only when you understand that, will the current erosion of liberty and prosperity make sense. It could not have gone otherwise with such a man in the Oval Office. Please pass this on after you read this one. Suddenly people are getting wise to this enemy of our USA.

Barack Hussein Obama is a Muslim who is tied in with the Muslim Brotherhood. His allegiance is to that brotherhood. Mohammed was a brigand who attacked caravans crossing the Sahara. The Muslim religion is far from peaceful when one views it historically. Older books tell it like it was as opposed to the current-day whitewashing using politically correct "facts" and language.
Mohammed did not write the Koran. It was written much later to accommodate the wishes of those who wanted a way of life that was good for the men, and considered women to be property. Those in real religions were considered to be infidels to be either used or killed. One of the Muslim teachings is to peacefully settle areas which are occupied by infidels so that once there are enough Muslims there, those Muslims can take over the area. In Europe, Muslims have been moving into a target country, having children who would automatically be citizens, sending those children back to a Muslim country to be indoctrinated properly, and then bringing them back to the target country to have children of their own. This continued cycle over time causes enough Muslims to be in the target country to establish Muslim laws.
There is a list of well over 90 mosques now in Florida alone. This is typical of what is happening here in the U.S. We are being inundated with those who would like to have Sharia law here.
There are peaceful Muslims living with us who are still sworn to do what their "religious" leaders want them to do. When the time comes, very likely those leaders will initiate a movement that will not include religious tolerance or the golden rule. This can be a gradual movement or a sudden one.
For a good view of what has been happening due largely to Obama's efforts, one can place the following words on search on the web: all of a sudden or message from a concerned citizen. There are many entries, but three of them that can at this time be found directly are: One Two Three
Some pertinent quotes given by U.S. Senator Jerry Moran:
This and no other is the root from which a tyrant springs;
when he first appears he is a protector.
PlatoThe urge to save humanity is almost always a false face for the urge to rule it.
H.L. Mencken, American JournalistExperience should teach us to be most on our guard to protect liberty
when the Government's purposes are beneficent.
