Obama is Hiding a Radical Past

Did you know that Barack Obama was a member of the leading socialist party? In a small omission, Barack Obama apparently forgot to include in his resume, he entered politics as a socialist. This just keeps getting better and better. Barack Obama was active participant in the 1990s of the Chicago New Party and, importantly, the Chicago DSA, a group of socialists affiliated with the Democratic Socialists of America.

Barack Obama attended and participated in meetings the Chicago New Party and the Chicago DSA, the local affiliate of the Democratic Socialists of America. Barack Obama sought the endorsement of the Chicago DSA. Barack Obama actively used the endorsement from the Chicago DSA.

Barack Obama won his DSA-endorsed and backed campaign to secure his seat in the Illinois State Senate. Barack Obama continued his involvement with the Chicago DSA and received their endorsements in subsequent campaigns. (more…)

This Obambi dork would never pass security clearance, if he were applying for any job that required it.

Obama’s adult life associations show a pattern. Obama’s associations include the Weather Underground and Bill Ayers, violent terrorists. Obama has a long time association with ACORN, and helped train people to use intimidation and other illegal means to influence elections. Obama’s pastor of 20 years preaches hatred of whites and hatred of America.

Voters have always insisted on having a great deal of information about the person who occupies the Oval Office. Bt almost nothing is known about Obama’s associates or friends while he was a student at Columbia and Harvard. A Fox report on Sunday 10/5/08 suggested that Obama may have been aided by a Saudi Arabian to get into Harvard Law. How did Obama pay for his education? Why are none of his college records available? Who were his friends and associates at Columbia and Harvard?

So far, the pattern that emerges shows that Obama is a racist and a socialist who does not agree with the U.S. Constitution. He is an extremist who has managed to hide his belief that violence and illegal activities are acceptable to achieve power. Obama in the White House would undermine the rule of law, capitalism, individual freedom, and the U.S. Government. The terrorists could not have a better candidate to achieve their goals.

Chicago New Party Update

by Bruce Bentley

About 50 activists attended the Chicago New Party membership meeting in July. The purpose of the meeting was to update members on local activities and to hear appeals for NP support from four potential political candidates. The NP is being very active in organization building and politics. There are 300 members in Chicago. In order to build an organizational and financial base the NP is sponsoring house parties. Locally it has been successful both fiscally and in building a grassroots base. Nationwide it has resulted in 1000 people committed to monthly contributions. The NP's political strategy is to support progressive candidates in elections only if they have a concrete chance to "win". This has resulted in a winning ratio of 77 of 110 elections. Candidates must be approved via a NP political committee. Once approved, candidates must sign a contract with the NP. The contract mandates that they must have a visible and active relationship with the NP.

The political entourage included Alderman Michael Chandler, William Delgado, chief of staff for State Rep Miguel del Valle, and spokespersons for State Sen. Alice Palmer, Sonya Sanchez, chief of staff for State Sen. Jesse Garcia, who is running for State Rep in Garcia's District; and Barach Obama, chief of staff for State Sen. Alice Palmer. Obama is running for Palmer's vacant seat.

Michael Chandler thanked the NP for its support in his electoral victory. His achievements to date included obtaining an increase of 30 police in the 24th Ward, citizen involvement in street clean-up and establishment of a 24th Ward Organization. William Delgado is exploring whether to run for State Rep in the 3rd District. He is a former social worker and spoke with compassion and dynamism. He considers himself a community activist who wants to be an advocate for change in the community. His presence in political office would be a benefit to the democratic left.

Indeed it was an exciting evening because the NP has two crucial components. First, the NP is a true "Rainbow Coalition" consisting of both young and aged African-Americans, Hispanics and Caucasians. Although ACORN and SEIU Local 880 were the harbingers of the NP there was a strong presence of CoC and DSA (15% DSA). Moreover a good 8% were younger Generation X'ers who are critically needed. A more diverse representation of Labor is missing. Secondly, the NP is taking "action." Four political candidates were "there" seeking NP support. The NP is strategically organizing via house parties and tactically entering only elections that they can win. Furthermore they are organizing a campaign on the "Living Wage Ordinance" in the Chicago City Council.

The NP has the following working committees: political, membership/fund-raising, public relations, and legal/finance. If you would be interested in participating in one of these committees or in helping out with any other New Party activities, contact Jeff Caveney at (312) 939-7490

September - October, 1998
Letters

Dear Editor:

I would like to urge DSA members and other progressives to support the candidacy of William “Willie” Delgato, Democratic Nominee for State Representative, 3rd District. Willie, who is New Party member and supporter, won a close race with critical New Party help in the 35th Ward. He is a progressive independent candidate whom I think we should all support.

In Solidarity,

Ron Baiman

Editor’s Note: I confess! I asked Ron to email this letter to the editor when he expressed dismay at Willie Delgato’s absence from the Executive Committee’s “recommended” candidates. I agree it was a significant omission. In the Executive Committee’s defense, I’d add that the main reason we felt compelled to say anything at all was because, at the time, it looked like DSA member Marc Loveless might make it on the ballot. The list was never meant to be comprehensive. There are a number of other very good candidates that were not mentioned. For my part, I would nominate State Senator Barak Obama (13th District) and County Clerk David Orr. Outside of Chicago DSA’s area is Congressman Lane Evans, who is actually facing a tough reelection fight. But this is just my opinion; I’m sure our readers can think of others as deserving, or disagree.http://www.chicagodsa.org/ngarchive/ng60.html

Chicago DSA
Our mission is to establish democratic socialism as a political force in the United States and around the world by training and mobilizing socialist activists to participate in a vibrant and diverse socialist organization at both the local and the national level. DSA both educates the public about democratic socialist values and policies and builds progressive coalitions to win victories that move the U.S. and the world toward social democracy. In the near term, democratic socialists struggle for reforms that shift power and resources away from corporate elites and put them in the hands of ordinary citizens. In the long term, democratic socialists fight for a world in which all people share equally in the governing of the economic, political and cultural institutions and relationships that shape their lives.

I spoke with a friend who stated that two SS agents stated the same, Barry would not pass a security clearance! What would it take for McCain to let that one slip out.

Never happen. If Barry gets in, kiss this country GB.

In 1996, when Obama received the communist New Party’s endorsement, a local Chicago socialist writing in New Ground, the newsletter of the Chicago Democratic Socialists of America, noted, “As the single 800 pound gorilla in the Chicago New Party, it doesn't leave a lot of room for newcomers to participate except on ACORN's terms. This will make it difficult for the New Party to have a life apart from ACORN.”

Let’s barrage Drudge with this. Send him news tips with this link. Send it to Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Michelle Malkin, Mark Levin, Laura Ingrahm. We’ve got less then 30 days to get this kind of info out to the public. And the vast majority of Americans will not support someone like this. GET THIS OUT THERE. Tell your family, tell your neighbors. It’s up to us, the MSM will do nothing.

New Party Update by Bruce Bentley The Chicago New Party is increasely becoming a viable political organization that can make a different in Chicago politics. It is crucial for a political organization to have a solid infrastructure and visible results in its political program. The New Party has continued to solidify this base. First, in relation to its infrastructure, the NP's membership has increased since January '95 from 225 to 440. National membership has increased from 5700 in December '95 to 7000. Currently the NP's fiscal balance is $7,000 and receives an average of $450/month is sustainer donations. Secondly, the NP's '96 Political Program has been enormously successful with 3 of 4 endorsed candidates winning electoral primaries. All four candidates attended the NP membership meeting on April 11th to express their gratitude. Danny Davis, winner in the 7th Congressional District, invited NPers to join his Campaign Steering Committee. Patricia Martin, who won the race for Judge in 7th Subcircuit Court, explained that due to the NP she was able to network and get experienced advice from progressives like Davis. Barack Obama, victor in the 13th State Senate District, encouraged NPers to join in his task forces on Voter Education and Voter Registration.

While it sounds good at first, I don’t see much concrete info. It says he attended meetings and it doesn’t give proof of membership.

This allegation will probably slide off the Teflon Con as well.
