Obama a Marxist in College?: John C. Drew Sheds Light on Obama College Years
Bungalow Bill ^ | 2-13-10 | John C. Drew

Posted on 02/14/2010 3:55:00 AM PST by radioone

The Obama college years remain a black hole in Obama's past. We really don't know much about Obama's college years other than the first few college years were a blur of drug usage and partying.

A longer excerpt:

This story isn’t new. The mainstream media including Fox News ignored the story. Dr. John C. Drew claims he was a Marxist as well when he enrolled in college himself.

Drew had an encounter with Obama to specifically discuss Marxism. He was dating a girl who knew Barack Obama. His girlfriend came home one day excited wanting Drew to meet this man, knowing their philosophical views were similar. They eventually went out to dinner, drinks, partied, and discussed each other’s Marxist views. Drew discusses more about the conversation in the video interview below.

Drew describes himself as a serious Marxist, including being an enemy of the US government, while he was in college. When they met, Drew describes Obama’s views were parallel with Drew’s views. He was one of the brotherhood, ready for revolution. Obama wasn’t just an explorer of intellectual Marxism. He embraced Marxist Leninism.

Drew says Obama was in 100% agreement with his Marxist professors in college. He looked forward to a revolution in this country to overturn the power structure. This is a fascinating interview, because we may be seeing those revolutionary efforts engaged in front of us as Obama’s policies appear to be dooming the country more than helping.

Drew has a Communist radar like gay men have gaydar. He has no doubt that Obama was a hard-core Marxist in college. I don’t think this comes to any surprise as we have watched Obama wiggle around the Socialist label, while his critics have gone as far as equating socialism to racism. Of course Obama is working to give the power to the state by creating more dependency on the central government. This interview will further confirm what most of us suspect. Obama’s roots are placed in the Communist Manifesto and other radical documents like Rules for Radicals—which is socialist/communist propaganda.

Nor would Biden have guessed;

Florida Anchor Barbara West Responds to Controversial Biden Interview

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,444507,00.html

WEST: You may recognize this famous quote: “From each according to his abilities to each according to his needs.” That’s from Karl Marx. How is Senator Obama not being a Marxist if he intends to spread the wealth around?

BIDEN: Are you joking? Is this a joke?

WEST: No.

BIDEN: Or is that a real question?

WEST: That’s a question.

BIDEN: He is not spreading the wealth around. He’s talking about giving the middle class an opportunity to get back the tax breaks they used to have.

WEST: What do you say to the people who are concerned that Barack Obama will want to turn America into a Socialist country much like Sweden?

BIDEN: I don’t know anybody who thinks that, except the far right-wing of the Republican Party.

“Now a college professors who knew Obama in college is shedding some light on the Obama college years. Drugs may not be the only thing Obama dabbled with in college. The professor posted a blog and is conducted interviews on Obama’s intrigue with Marxism”

Who is responsible for constructing a paragraph like the above? “..is conducted interviews..” “..Now a college professors who knew Obama...”

Obama a Marxist in College
John C. Drew Sheds Light on Obama College Years

Sen Joe McCarthy. Where are you when we need you the most?

Surely there's ONE Patriot left in Congress to stand up to this CommieRAT.
That is besides Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Gorgeous).

(and I sure as heck DON'T mean any 'progressive republicans' (aka: pR) like Sen. Juan McInsane (pR-Mexico), or his light in the loafers toady, Lindsey Graham (pR-Bathhouses)

I surmised 0bama was a member of Black Panthers and SDS while supposedly attending Occidental, Columbia, and Harvard.

I think that’s one of the major reasons he doesn’t want his college transcripts revealed.

You sure know Obama inside out, just like ETL. Here’s something I only recently learned about Karl Marx:

Rush Limbaugh:
“What you do not know is that four of Karl Marx’s children literally starved to death while he was researching his work on communism, running around with intellectuals like the very wealthy Friedrich Engels. Four of Karl Marx’s own children literally starved to death while he was running around putting together all the wonderful aspects of communism.”

I'll have to take a closer look at it when I have more time.

Obama Espoused Radical Views in College [advocated communist overthrow of U.S.]
Steve Malzberg - WOR News Talk Radio 710 ^ | February 12, 2010 | Ronald Kessler

Posted on Friday, February 12, 2010 7:33:56 PM by ETL

Dr. John C. Drew, a grant writing consultant in Laguna Niguel, Calif., tells Newsmax he met Obama in 1980 when Obama was a sophomore at Occidental College in Los Angeles. Drew had just graduated from Occidental and was attending graduate school at Cornell University.

During Christmas break, Drew says he was at Grauman-Boss’ home in Palo Alto when Obama came over with Mohammed Hasan Chandoo, his roommate from Pakistan.

“Barack [Obama] and Hasan showed up at the house in a BMW, and then we went to a restaurant together,” Drew says. “We had a nice meal, and then we came back to the house and smoked cigarettes and drank and argued politics.”

For the next several hours, they discussed Marxism.

He [Obama] was arguing a straightforward Marxist-Leninist class-struggle point of view, which anticipated that there would be a revolution of the working class, led by revolutionaries, who would overthrow the capitalist system and institute a new socialist government that would redistribute the wealth,” says Drew, who says he himself was then a Marxist.

The idea was basically that wealthy people were exploiting others,” Drew says. “That this was the secret of their wealth, that they weren’t paying others enough for their work, and they were using and taking advantage of other people. He was convinced that a revolution would take place, and it would be a good thing.”

Drew concluded that Obama thought of himself as “part of an intelligent, radical vanguard that was leading the way towards this revolution and towards this new society.” ..."

Referring to Obama’s quote from “Dreams of My Father” that he associated with Marxist professors, Drew says, “What he’s not saying is that he was in 100 percent total agreement with those Marxist professors. When you understand that, Obama’s later associations and policies make more sense, including why he was taken in by Rev. Wright’s ideology.”

"It was at the Chicago home of [Bill] Ayers and [Bernardine] Dohrn that Obama, then an up-and-coming 'community organizer,' had his political coming out party in 1995. Not content with this rite of passage in Lefty World — where unrepentant terrorists are regarded as progressive luminaries, still working 'only to educate' — both Obamas tended to the relationship with the Ayers."

From Investor's Business Daily (IBD), August 27, 2008:

"Ayers, now a tenured distinguished professor of education at UIC, works to educate teachers in socialist revolutionary ideology, urging that it be passed on to impressionable students.

One of Ayer's descriptions for a course called 'Improving Learning Environments' says prospective K-12 teachers need to 'be aware of the social and moral universe we inhabit and ... be a teacher capable of hope and struggle, outrage and action, teaching for social justice and liberation.

The Annenberg papers are quite extensive — 132 boxes containing 947 file folders with 70 linear feet of material. They undoubtedly contain more surprises regarding Obama's relationship with Ayers, one of many relationships Obama has sought to hide.'..."

Wow, this comes at such a surprise. I am very shocked no one would have guessed!

The point really isn't that it further confirms what most (not all) of here knew or suspected about him, but rather to get these ever important details out to anyone else who checks in on FR, and to have it documented. I'm sure these threads turn up a lot in internet searches. This has been one of my main aims since I've been here: to get the info out far and wide. Believe it or not, there are an awful lot of people who still don't believe Obama's a communist, including jackasses like Bill O'Reilly who make MILLIONS of $$$ "just looking out for the folks" while mocking Glenn Beck for his efforts.
