PATRIOT PERSPECTIVE


No ObamaNation Part 3: Another Marx brother


By Mark Alexander


After her Pennsylvania primary victory, Hillary Rodham Clinton is still
swinging, but unless she can win 60 percent of delegates in the
remaining primaries (unlikely) and turn more than half of the remaining
superdelegates her way prior to the convention, her bid is done.


The Democrats are thus stuck with Obama, the handpicked protègè of
UberLeftist Demo-gogues Jean-Francois Kerry and Teddy Kennedy.
Obama fever is now breaking among moderate Democrats, reducing the odds
that he can beat John McCain in the general election, but if the
Democrat National Committee takes action to derail his campaign, the party
would implode.


At this point, the Demo elite are prepared to sacrifice the presidency
knowing that their majorities in the House and Senate will still carry
water for their constituencies of `useful idiots.' But given Obama’s
mesmerizing effect on the proletariat, he may be down but certainly not
out.


Barack Obama is the most radical Leftist to ever make it this far in a
presidential primary. In Part 2 of this series, `Disciple of Hate,' I
summarized the influence of his religious mentor for the last two
decades, black supremacist Jeremiah Wright.


This week’s essay will provide insight into Obama’s political mentors,
all protagonists of Marxist-inspired anti-American movements. If a man can
be judged by the company he keeps, Obama should be judged harshly. He may
be a `closet smoker,' but as more of his mentors are smoked out of his
closet, it becomes increasingly clear that Obama is just another
traitorous Leftist posing as an all-American.


For starters, consider Obama’s friends and neighbors, William Ayers and
Bernardine Dohrn.


Ayers and Dohrn were leaders of the Weather Underground, a violent
group of radical Leftovers from the Revolutionary Youth Movement, a wing of
Students for a Democratic Society. Ayers and Dohrn split from the
Maoist RYM, insisting that a revolution against the United States and
capitalists everywhere should commence immediately.


In 1969, Ayers and Dohrn were founding signatories of the Weathermen’s
declaration of unification with the `Black Liberation Movement' and
other `anti-colonial' vanguards, to ensure `the destruction of U.S.
imperialism and the achievement of a classless world: world Communism.'


In 1970 the Weather Underground issued a `Declaration of a State of
War' against the United States and commenced a campaign of terror including
bombings, jailbreaks, and the instigation of riots. Between 1969 and
1975, they bombed the U.S. Capitol twice, the Pentagon, the Department of
State and several federal courthouses. They also attacked state and local
government buildings and `capitalist targets' such as banks. The
terrorist organization began to disband after the U.S. withdrawal from
Vietnam and the fall of Saigon, though one of their last acts of violence was
a Brinks robbery in 1981, in which two police officers and a security guard
were murdered during that robbery.


Ayers and Dohrn scurried underground in 1970, after a bomb being
constructed in New York to kill Army officers at Fort Dix detonated
prematurely, killing three fellow Weathermen. (In the jargon of bomb
technicians and investigators, this is known as `self solving.')


They surrendered to authorities a decade later but were never
prosecuted because of `improper' FBI surveillance methods. Ayers is now a
professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago, and Dohrn is an associate
professor of law at Northwestern University. Isn’t that special.


Asked about his association with Ayers, Obama said, "This is a guy who
lives in my neighborhood... who I know... He’s not somebody who I
exchange ideas from on a regular basis." So, he only exchanges ideas with him
on an irregular basis?


Obama added the disclaimer that he was only eight years old when Ayers
was bombing buildings. However, Obama was 40 when an unrepentant Ayers told
The New York Times, "I don’t regret setting bombs; I feel we didn’t do
enough." (No small irony that interview was published on 11 September
2001.)


For her part, Dohrn once offered the following assessment of the Manson
family murders: "Dig it. First they killed those pigs, then they ate
dinner in the same room with them. They even shoved a fork into
[pregnant actress Sharon Tate’s] stomach! Wild!"



Nonetheless, Obama has maintained his association with Ayers and Dohrn,
and the connection goes quite a bit deeper than just neighborhood
proximity.


Ayers and Dohrn actually hosted the party to launch Obama’s successful
1996 Illinois State Senate campaign at their fashionable Hyde Park
home, a campaign endorsed by the Democratic Socialists of America.


Incidentally, the DSA would later note in a newsletter that State Senator
Obama gave the eulogy for socialist Saul Mendelson, a `champion' of the
`democratic left.'


Obama and Ayers also served together on the Woods Fund board, which,
incidentally, awarded $6,000 to Obama’s `pastor,' Jeremiah Wright,
noting the grant was `in recognition of Barack Obama’s contributions to Woods
Fund as a director.' This is the same board that supports such
anti-Semitic organizations as the Arab-American Action Network.


A more in-depth look at Obama reveals he may indeed be a `hard-core
academic Marxist' as accused by his 2004 Senate campaign opponent, and
sacrificial lamb, Alan Keyes.


Obama admits to having attended `socialist conferences' as a `community
organizer' in Chicago in the late 1980s, where he broke bread with
Democratic Socialists of America lefties: also with full-circle
connections to William Ayers.


But that is hardly the extent of Obama’s fascination with Marxist
ideology.


According to my colleague, Cliff Kincaid, Accuracy in Media editor and
president of the UN watchdog group America’s Survival, Obama was
mentored for most of his formative years by black radical Frank Marshall
Davis, a Communist Party USA member. Obama had "a close relationship, almost
like a son, with Davis," writes Kincaid.


In his book, Dreams from My Father, Obama refers to "Frank" repeatedly,
and said that Davis "and his old Black Power dashiki self" was still
mentoring him as late as 1979, when he was a student in California.


Davis warned Obama that college would give him "an advanced degree in
compromise" and not to "start believing what they tell you about equal
opportunity and the American way and all that s**t."


Kincaid notes that a CPUSA devotee recently said of Obama’s political
fortunes, "Marx once compared revolutionary struggle with the work of
the mole, who sometimes burrows so far beneath the ground that he leaves no
trace of his movement on the surface. This is the old revolutionary
‘mole,’ not only showing his traces on the surface but also breaking
through."


Obama’s record speaks for itself. In 2006, Senator Obama campaigned for
the re-election of Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, who openly lists his
party affiliation as "Socialist." Sanders applauded freshman Sen. Obama
as "one of the great leaders of the United States Senate," and
understandably so. Last year, National Journal, which rates members of
Congress strictly by their voting records, ranked Obama as the single most
liberal member of the Senate; a remarkable `achievement,' given the Socialist
bona fides of the aforementioned Sanders.


When questioned why he refuses to wear an American flag on his lapel,
Obama said, "I won’t wear it on my chest. It’s a substitute for... true
patriotism. You show your patriotism by being true to our values and
ideals."


No doubt, the true colors of Obama’s "values and ideals" are bright
red. (Part 1 of this series: "No ObamaNation: Barack who?"; Part 2 of this
