B-Cast Interviews Dr John C. Drew On Obama’s Early Marxist Years (Video)
Gateway Pundit ^ | 2/13/2010 | Jim Hoft

Scott Baker and Liz Stephans from the B-Cast interviewed Dr. John C. Drew today. Drew said he tried to get his story out during the 2008 election. He says he was a Marxist himself in college and was until 1984. He knew Obama at Occidental College and went out to dinner and argued politics with the young Marxist Barack Obama. Drew says Obama was a Marxist-Leninist and believed in redistribution of wealth. He was deceiving the public during the election because he was 100% in agreement with his Marxist pals and professors. Drew still believes that Obama is a socialist.

This video is long but very interesting.

Obama wrote in Dreams of My Father that he hung out with the Marxists and radicals in college. Drew says it is very rare for a young college kid to be so radicalized as Obama was when he met him. He also said there is usually a team surrounding a charismatic leader like Obama.

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

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.”

I have never doubted Obama got himself elected by fraud and misrepresentation of himself. I do not consider him a valid president.

Lol! True. But here we have him actually talking about a communist overthrow of the government. That’s a big step beyond just being a Socialist or even Marxist. Not all of them advocate violence and revolution. He was then, and is still today, a “Black Liberation” revolutionary communist like Bill Ayers and his “reverend” Wright.

The One thing that we don’t have to worry about in this country is a total transformation to Socialism/Marxism/Communism. The populace is too well informed..too well armed… and with just enough patriotic spirit to beat back this threat. Congress as well as Obama and his merry band of terrorists have been put on notice by the American Tea Party Movement and the rest of America is listening. Americans are always willing and have given their blood and lives for Freedom throughout it’s history so I seriously doubt that if this matter becomes an issue of life and death or to live under Freedom or a Marxist based government which in itself is nothing short of government based slavery well, Freedom will prevail…..So Obama, and the rest of you Liberal Commie douche-bags…come and get some!!!!
