Then there’s this story been around for awhil;
What if I told you that you will have a black president very soon and he will be a communist? she said. Well, you will; and he will be a communist.

would answer why he said he was going to be president with no doubt.
My guess is that this story is in fact a link to the known communist Axelrod family who were well known in Chicago. To add to the story are reports that the Axelrod name is an Americanized name for a family whose roots go back to Trotsky with association with Lenin. Khrushchev knew a lot more than he let on with his statement to the effect that communism would bury us.
