From the October Revolution in 1917 until the end of the Second World War the Communist cancer metastasized and spread through the world. America wasn't left out. We should look back to the much-maligned McCarthy era for an idea of how widespread the Marxist ideology had become in this country. We were prime for the insinuation of Marxist ideas, the fellow-travelers of the hard-line Communists and the infiltration of these elements into the the country's bureaucracies and to a lesser degree, our colleges and universities. The Cold War gave our home-grown Marxists occasion to expose themselves and their agendas. The Rosenbergs were martyrs for their causes and the backlash to the McCarthy hearings had persuaded any number of artists and intellectuals to become what we politely call "Liberal" and "Leftist" today.
McCarthy had taught them a valuable lesson. Advocating the violent overthrow of the government of the United States of America was not the way to go, at least not overtly. Where could they go to make the most of their limited numbers. They needed foot-soldiers, converts their radical philosophies, and there were two places where the ground was fertile: among the poor and the lower classes, and on the college campus. With the help of "Tenure" and "Academic Freedom" it has been easy for them to teach "Social Justice", "Cultural Awareness" and the "Studies" of one "victim group" or another. Community Activists were growing the movement by preaching class warfare and accusations of racism.
The Vietnam War gave these Marxists their first outing. The Korean War was off limits because of the United Nations involvement. A few pacifist and anti-war groups (there's a difference) protested, with little effect. Vietnam was another story. The Imperialist United States was fighting against the Viet Cong, a group of heroic freedom fighters resisting a corrupt and despotic South Vietnamese government. So the word came down from the top, the Kremlin itself, to make the war a war on two fronts, there and here. Enter Bill Ayres and the Weather Underground, the SDS, the Black Panthers and the Symbionese Liberation Army. Remember Patty Herst? Ayres was doing his bomb thing in the late '60s and the '70s.
Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. was born in 1961. He was a Marxist in the womb. His mother, rest her soul, was an atheist Marxist as were his grandparents. Stanley Ann Dunham was taught "the importance of challenging societal norms and questioning authority." In high school, at Mercer Island, WA, her teachers, Val Foubert and Jim Wichterman were active Marxists and had a great influence on her. The hallway between their rooms at the school was referred to as "Anarchist Alley." Stanley Ann was at the University of Hawaii when she met Barack's father in Russian class. Barack, Sr. was from Kenya and upon abandoning Barack and Stanley in 1962, returned to Kenya and eventually and served as an economist in the Ministry of Transportation and the as an economist in the Ministry of Finance in Kenya's Socialist Government until he had a falling out with Kenyan President Jomo Kenyatta. Stanley Ann divorced him in 1964 and married Lolo Soetoro. Barack lived with his mother and step-father in Indonesia until he returned to Hawaii and his grandparents in 1971. He attended Pinahou school from fifth grade until he graduated high school in 1979. Stanley Ann divorced Lolo in 1972.
There is noteworthy that I can find about Barack's schooling. Of major interest in our tale of a young Marxist's growth over the years, is his acknowledged mentor Frank Marshall Davis. Davis is described as "a journalist, labor activist, poet, expatriate, and resident of Hawaii for almost forty years". He was also a member of the Communist Party USA a pornographer and a pedophile. Nine years of preparation before Barack Hussein Obama went off to college. Perhaps Davis had a few comrades waiting for the young Obama when he got there.
Obama himself describes his college experiences in "Dreams From My Father" including "To avoid being mistaken for a sellout,I chose my friends carefully.The more politically active black students.The foreign students.The Chicanos.The Marxist Professors and the structural feminists and punk-rock performance poets." Marxist Professors!! That carries on the theme, doesn't it.
He had help getting into Harvard Law, and the Law Review just ate him up. Not much of a record of his years there, but
what is most interesting is his choice of employment when he graduated. The first African-American President of the Harvard Law Review could write his own ticket. Instead he ended up as a community organizer is Chicago. It's not certain when he caught the attention of Bill Ayres and the Chicago Socialist, Marxist, elitist crowd, but the saw their chance of one big, bold push into the mainstream of American politics. The years since the Vietnam War had seen the Democrat Party sliding more and more to the left. Time to go for it.
The findings about Rev. Wright and his Black Liberation Theology is not surprising. Its roots are in the Liberation Theology of Obama's grandparent's Unitarian Church, and the renegade priests of the Sandinistas in Nicaragua. Marxist! No doubt, no argument.
I fear for the future of this country and for the future of my grandchildren. Pray for them. Pray for me. Pray for us all.
