Barack Obama was, in fact, a member of the socialist New Party in the 1990s and sought its endorsement for the Illinois senate--contrary to the misrepresentations of Obama's presidential campaign in 2008, and in spite of the efforts of Politico's Ben Smith to quash the story. Stanley Kurtz, author of Radical-in-Chief: Barack Obama and the Untold Story of American Socialism (2010), has released new "smoking gun" evidence at National Review Online. It is evidence that the mainstream media can no longer ignore--and Obama can no longer deny.
When the story of Obama's association with the New Party first broke in 2008, Obama campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt claimed that Obama had never been a member. (LaBolt likewise told the New York Times that Obama had "not spoken by phone or exchanged e-mail messages since Mr. Obama began serving in the United States Senate in January 2005"--a statement that carefully concealed the truth that Obama had spent time in Ayers' home after he began serving in the Senate.) The Obama campaign took up the issue at its "Fight the Smears" website, smearing Kurtz and willfully distorting the truth about Barack Obama's radical past:
Right-wing hatchet man and conspiracy theorist, Stanley Kurtz is pushing a new crackpot smear against Barack falsely claiming he was a member of something called the New Party.But the truth is Barack has been a member of only one political party, the Democratic Party. In all six primary campaigns of his career, Barack has has run as a Democrat. The New Party did support Barack once in 1996, but he was the only candidate on the ballot in his race and never solicited the endorsement.

only the delegates can change the rules.
Obama campaign selected most of the delegates. They are his people.
Clinton’s don’t want the nomination. Hillary would lose.
They want to run against a failed Romney administration in 2016. They cannot do that if Obama is re-elected.
No one of serious thought believes Obama is anything other than a socialist. We all know he grew up on a steady diet of Marx and leftist radicals. It is the job of the media to pretend Obama is a reasoned, moderate, slightly conservative progressive who stands in the center of American politics. They have to pretend that because they know the American people would never accept Obama the communist and fervent devote to liberation politics and the redistribution of Western wealth and property. The media can’t let people see how dangerous Obama really is.
I prefer the simpler
“the only politician that can’t be bought is the one with nothing to sell”
(if anyone knows the source of that quote, I’d appreciate it)
Take away the reasons that businesses have to “play the game”, and there will be no game.
“....only the delegates can change the rules.

Clintons dont want the nomination. Hillary would lose.

They may not have a choice:
As posted on two other FR threads......
...Obama is becoming pathetic....
We all know liberalism, or whatever name you want to call it, is a chronic deteriorating mental disease. However in zippys case, I think what were seeing is him slipping off into complete insanity. I think hes losing it totally and his handlers are beside themselves with what to do with him. I would not be surprised in the least to see zippy with a total mental breakdown before the election and the DNC run Hitlery in his place.
Honestly, Joel...I've got a bridge I'd like to sell you.
So Obama DOES use a Socialist Mop!
Glenn Beck just did, FWIW.
Democrats: ‘Take your little hammer, little sickle and your scary red signs with a fist on it, and go home...’
“Clintons dont want the nomination. Hillary would lose.”
IMO, Hillary and Big Media would wipe the floor with Mittens.
They just need a good reason to jettison Hussein, but if Big Media doesn’t like it, it won’t happen.
George Soros is very desirous of a pump and dump on this nation. Being forced into a downward spiral where he can sell the dollar short would turn him into a trillionaire.
“Maybe not. If it gets bad enough, and the Democratic hierarchy and the wealthy contributors to Obama realize he probably will not win, they could change the Rules at the Convention and nominate Hillary from the floor. Am I right or wrong?”
Except for Hussein’s ego and Big Media’s adoration of him, it sounds reasonable, but I think Hussein’s coup at the SS removed all serious threat to him, unless he receives a promotion to UN President.
Hillary could beat Hussein and Mittens easily, but not without Big Media’s support.
“George Soros is very desirous of a pump and dump on this nation. Being forced into a downward spiral where he can sell the dollar short would turn him into a trillionaire.”
Considering Soros’ steel grip on this country’s balls, I’d say his next step is quadrillionaire.
Another site with info on the New Party is at Discover the Networks, The New Party. Good info.
There literally is so much "stuff" on Obama it boggles the mind. It just amazes me that more Americans aren't aware of all of this.
Keep spreading the word. . and hopefully FOX and other outlets will start covering all this "stuff." I have to hand it to Beck . . at least he has covered a lot of this.
BARACK OBAMA PORTRAIT OF A SOCIALIST AS A NOT SO VERY YOUNG MAN
OBAMA JUST CAUGHT IN BIG LIE?
http://www.wnd.com/2012/06/obama-just-caught-in-big-lie/?cat_orig=us
IT may have posted threads earlier than that as well, but with 15+ windows already open, I didn't look further into the past.
Also, American Thinker had an article about this story in October 2008 as well, minus the images of the documents IT posted.
And the Wayback Machine has the New Party's October 1996 Update showing Barack Obama as a NP member who won the (IL State House) primary that year.
Pinging IT to jog his memory regarding when this story first showed up on FR.
Rush dealt with this today also...........Extensively.
