I disagree. For the most part CIA are patriots. Under Democrat presidents they are crippled and under GOP they are empowered (certain yellowcake episodes excepted). Back in the early 1980’s the (mostly) patriot defenders in the CIA were under William Casey who acted on the directions of Ronald Reagan to recruit foreign nationals in foreign countries and to oppose KGB infiltration of the CIA.
Barry is exactly the type of likely KGB mole who would be excluded.
Remember the widely circulated report of the US businessman in Russia in the early 1990’s who reported that a top level Soviet woman got drunk and told his that the KGB had an attractive black man being prepared to be US president?
IMO, Ayers and Dohrn were KGB (she was in Cuba being trained to implement Days of Rage in Chicago in 1968, IIRC) and IMO, Barry got hooked up with them in 1981 when he arrived in NYC...the same year I first interviewed with the CIA. I find the report of a KGB Manchurian Candidate being prepped to be president to be credible and, most likely, Ayers and Dohrn were in charge of the project.
Could really be. Ayers and Dohrn hated the USA that much. And when white-talking, cocoa-colored Obama showed up at their protests in NY, they must have been drooling like foxes when a plump chicken stumbles into the foxhole. Finally, a way into the White House, not through explosives, but waltzing in through the front door.
And, of course, their plan worked.
