You can preorder William Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn's new book now, unless you're some kind of racist

It's called Race Course Against White Supremacy, and if Amazon's product description is any indication, it sounds peachy:

White supremacy and its troubling endurance in American life is debated in these personal essays by two veteran political activists. Arguing that white supremacy has been the dominant political system in the United States since its earliest days—and that it is still very much with us—the discussion points to unexamined bigotry in the criminal justice system, election processes, war policy, and education. The book draws upon the authors' own confrontations with authorities during the Vietnam era, reasserts their belief that racism and war are interwoven issues, and offers personal stories about their lives today as parents, teachers, and reformers.

I smell bestseller! No way this one will bomb.

P.S. Don't think Obama is a socialist? Think again. As AP says: "The best part of this, assuming that it trickles up the media food chain and gets put to one of Obama's spokesmen, will be trying to reconcile the inevitable profession of ignorance about the New Party's agenda with David Brooks's assertions about how 'socially perceptive' Obama is. Truly, except for Ayers's terrorist background, Wright's sermons, Pfleger's race-baiting, and the NP, Obama's awareness of what's going on around him is laser sharp."

Americans are being frighteningly naive about Senator Obama, never seeming to question that the puppeteers who have programmed and introduced him onto the American stage have a plan for this nation that does not coincide with the ideals of the Declaration and United States Constitution.

The liberty of millions yet unborn hangs in the balance in this election, and between now and Election Day, someone needs to expose those who control Obama's agenda.

Besides, what’s a radical like Ayers (and wife) doing trying to make a greedy capitalist buck anyway?

I’m still waiting to hear how people like Puff P. Diddy Combs (or whatever the hell his name is) Gwen Ifill, or any other black person voting for Obama for the simple fact that he is half black isn’t racist.....

Ayers calls himself a “small-c communist” and definitely a Marxist.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weatherman_(organization)
The Weathermen were initially part of the Revolutionary Youth Movement (RYM) within the SDS, splitting from the RYM's Maoists by claiming there was no time to build a vanguard party and that revolutionary war against the United States government and the capitalist system should begin immediately. Their founding document called for the establishment of a "white fighting force" to be allied with the "Black Liberation Movement" and other "anti-colonial" movements[1] to achieve "the destruction of US imperialism and the achievement of a classless world: world communism."

The group's first public demonstration:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Days_of_Rage

The Days of Rage riots in Chicago took place over a 4-day period beginning October 8, 1969, after members of the Weathermen, a militant offshoot of the Students for a Democratic Society, converged on the city to confront police in the streets in response to the trial of the group of anti-Vietnam War activists known as the "Chicago Eight".

Also good to read up on this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Left

Criticism of the legacy
As many of those who supported the New Left in the 1960s are now in charge of the kinds of institutions they once opposed, conservative opponents argue that their assumptions - which are sometimes described as politically correct multiculturalism - are now the establishment orthodoxy. In what has been described as the culture wars, conservative critics of this orthodoxy such as Allan Bloom and Roger Scruton assert that New Left radical egalitarianism is motivated by anti-Western nihilism.

If, heaven forbid, Obama is elected I think that the American racist myth is put to rest. Unless it’s payback time.

Allow me to say once again for the record: “Whiteness” is the new code word for capitalism, like “authentic” is the new code word for progressive (which was once the new code word for socialist.)

“like “authentic” is the new code word for progressive”

These two aging Marxist clowns, like the rest of their ilk, deserve an authentic kick in the ass.

As always, the Weathermen are hoping to piggyback on a violent movement by African-Americans.

Through ACORN, they may get one.

Bingo!

"New Left radical egalitarianism is motivated by anti-Western nihilism."

Well, we all know how well anti-western (read: anti 'white') nihilism has worked out... just look at the people starving in Zimbabwe, where their racist prime minister, Robert Mugabe, is kicking white farmers off their land.
