The Communist

Paul Kenger writes a well-documented and concise narrative of Barack Hussein Obama's surrogate 'Pop', an avowed communist. In terms of simply conveying that narrative, the book is very well done.I give the book only three stars, however, because it misses the far more ominous fact that all ten points of Karl Marx's Communist Manifesto have been Washington D.C. policy, arguably since the end of the Woodrow Wilson administration; certainly by the end of FDR's. This is easily certified: Google "Communist Manifesto", and read Marx's ten goals for communism.Do you see? All ten of Marx's goals have been federal law, regulation, or policy since long before Obamanation. Federal government is 100% communist, by Marx's own definition of communism. Barack Hussein Obama is only the 'reductio ad absurdum'; the consummation of a century of communist accretions supported by a huge welfare population including farmers, minorities, retirees, a gargantuan roll of veterans and other 'entitled ones' who happily violate the stipulations in the U.S. Constitution, the supreme Law of the Land, as long as the funds hit their account.Three generations of government-school graduates have been programmed to believe in 'democracy', and to be ignorant of the Constitution that EVERY citizen has a duty to preserve, protect, and defend. America is in this sorry condition not because of Barack Hussein Obama; we have the president we deserve.It's time to awake from a long nightmare and get to work; but first, do no harm.Stop complaining about the Kenyan Marxist, if you live as a Marxist peon yourself: do you regularly accept checks from the federal government? Do you support government's involvement in any power or program not *specifically* granted to government in Article I, Section 8 of the US Constitution? However salutary you may beleive that program to be, if it is not enumerated to federal government, it is ILLEGAL. Congress created 'elastic clauses' to violate the law and line their pockets -- and give you a cut. If you accept that cut, If you benefit from it or support it, YOU are part of the problem. YOU are a willing accomplice in the century-long communist hijacking of our formerly constitutional republic. Barack Hussein Obama is only the manifestation of you and the rest of 'entitled America'.Obama made his Marxist beliefs perfectly clear for years, even in public life. Kengor makes a rather obvious point, that Obama never repudiated Marxism; never mentioned a conversion experience from his Marxist past. But should we have expected this? The man promised to "fundamentally change America" when he was elected! If those who voted for Obama had vetted him in the least, they'd know what they were getting. Millions of Blacks flocked to vote not only because of racial pride but precisely because this meant payback for Whitey. Somehow, mentioning this obvious fact is 'racist' now because Marx (and Saul Alinski) taught their troops how to turn everything to PR advantage. Anyone listening to Michelle Obama six months before she claimed the Imelda Marcos throne in the White House, *knew* this was coming.Obama's every major policy change has been true to Marxist fundamentals: tear down propertied citizens...make them 'share' their wealth. Build up the importance of government at every turn; it is after all the savior of mankind. Make everyone equal in their misery (except that superior, 'caring' ruling class who is "more equal", and thus fit to determine the taxpayer's future). Have government run businesses; pick winners and losers. Train up government-school denizens for a lifetime of compliance and pledging allegiance to a collectivist 'nation'.[On this, look up 'Francis Bellamy' and 'Pledge of Allegiance' to learn a bit of shocking fascist history. Yes, the Pledge of Allegiance was a fascist programming tool from its inception by a socialist. You didn't learn THAT in government school, did you?]This is a nightmare, but it's not as though America was airlifted in one piece to Russia while we slept. Since the days of my father (FDR's administration), millions of citizens -- minority, elderly, military, farmers, corporations, veterans, you name it -- have considered themselves entitled to the fruits of MY labor and yours. They have defended the predations of government even when they are clearly illegal (a.k.a. 'unconstitutional').My point is: exposing one old Black communist -- or even a Marxist president with a racial agenda -- won't stop the communist juggernaut infesting Washington D.C. and millions of 'entitled' households across our land.Yes, this implacable Marxist must go; but we'll soon learn that Romney (a soft fascist) would hardly be an improvement. Those who truly believe in the Constitution think that they must "re-take the Senate" -- demonstrable organized crime! -- this election. Neither corrupt political party will allow those ten communist planks in D.C. to be outlawed and de-funded. That is a law enforcement function that can only be instituted and overseen by sovereigns: We The People and our sovereign States.Marx's followers hijacked our constitutional republic and way of life over generations. We The People cannot expect to restore them in a few election cycles. Nor can we expect elections to ever enforce our Supreme Law.Across the entire First World, Marxism engulfed all; then it proved itself the bankrupt caricature it was from the start. Communism's evil twin is fascism: bloated, favored industries, the military, and the Wall Street casino allied with the FED and your local banker making it all possible by creating counterfeit 'money' for which YOU become indebted. It's organized crime, as Tom DiLorenzo surveys in detail in his 2012 book  Organized Crime: The Unvarnished Truth About Government .Now the music is ending; the whole world in this Information Age awaits the next chapter following collapse of organized crime. Predators and parasites that have fed off the productive population for centuries, now face exposure and arrest, courtesy of the Internet. We witness a new populist revolt every few weeks now; the pace will not slacken anytime soon.It is time for sincere repentance, reformation, and restoration in America. Hard work all around: hard truth, zero entitlement, and *enforcing* our Supreme Law for the first time in history. Thanks to our Constitution, even 1% of citizens can restore law and order, using the AmericaAgain! Indictment Engine(TM) or any similar mechanism. The world will only watch, because only in America can popular sovereignty restore constitutional rule of law, without civil war.The Marxists have had a field day in America for 150 years, even as in Europe. But as I make clear in my book, history suggests that we are witnessing in Barack Obama and Europe's cataclysms the *end* of the Marxist feast -- not its beginning.It will not be easy for just a few million of us productive citizens to get our state criminal courts to arrest members of Congress who hold the purse strings for organized crime. But the law is on our side, and history, too. It will be cathartic to have lawful U.S. money as stipulated in the Constitution; to put our family lives and private property beyond the clutches of predators and parasites.For a look in history's rear-view mirror before we drive over Marxism's ashes, Paul Kengor's book fills the bill with erudition and panache. The movie 'Obama 2016', produced by Dinesh D'Souza, was another shocking wake-up call; but neither alarm was enough to wake the sleeping masses. Obama was re-elected.My point is twofold: 1) no president brought us to this retrograde place, nor can any president repair the ruins; Congress does 75% of the damage while the other two branches share 25%; and 2) American communism is a century old, thus even this excellent statement of Obama's communist roots can offer no solution. Kengor's book is a very worthwhile read, but still three stars.[Full disclosure: all proceeds from sales of my book go to AmericaAgain! so I have no financial stake in selling it.

"Frank Marshall Davis was a pro-Soviet, pro-Red China, card-carrying member of Communist Party USA (CPUSA). His Communist Party card number was 47544. He did endless Soviet propaganda work in his newspaper columns..."Thus begins Paul Kengor's exhaustively-research, just-published book The Communist Frank Marshall Davis: The Untold Story of Barack Obama's Mentor.Kengor does the grunt work of digging through three decades of Davis' Chicago Star and Honolulu Record (both CPUSA fronts) columns; digging through his 600-page FBI file; digging through reports by the House Committee on Un-American Activities (what the Left refers to mockingly as HUAC--the House Un-American Committee, believing that investigating those who want to overthrow the government and institute a Soviet satellite nation as somehow un-American).Davis was indefatigable in his work for the Fatherland, echoing everything coming out of the Kremlin without question. When Stalin joined hands with Hitler, Davis was pro-Hitler. When Hitler betrayed Stalin and invaded Russia, he was anti-Hitler. When Roosevelt joined hands with Russia, he was pro-Roosevelt. When Truman fought the Russian Beast spreading its Iron Curtain across the world, Davis excoriated the "fascist and Nazi" Truman. And it went on and on for four decades.Per the ongoing Congressional Investigation, Davis was over the years part of so many CPUSA front groups that it was hard to keep track of them all. One longstanding front group was the American Committee for Protection of Foreign Born (ACPFB), of which Davis was a part of for literally decades. Per Congress the ACPFB "was founded by the Communist Party in order to exploit racial divisions in the United States for its own revolutionary purposes." One of ACPFB's constant refrains when any criticism was lodged against it, whether of communist ties or anything else, was the cry of racism.Sound familiar?Anytime Barack Hussein Obama is criticized, the cry of racism rears its head.So of course the purpose of Kengor's book is to tie Barack Hussein Obama with Frank Marshall Davis. Obama sat at the feet of Davis for literally years, and it may have been as long as a decade, drinking in his communism, his pro-Soviet, anti-American rants, so that upon arriving at Occidental in 1979, Obama was a full-fledged Marxist, as Kengor's research shows. Kengor for the book interviewed a friend of Obama's at the time, John Drew, who positively states Obama was a fervent Marxist-Stalinist who was anticipating a literal proletariat revolution in the United States that he believed was immanent.Of course Obama was presented as a "moderate" to the American public. Yes, he admitted to hanging around with Marxists at Occidental; yes he admitted to going to socialists conferences in New York, but those were the musings of a young man, not of the more mature Barack Obama.Yeah, right.If that was so, which Kengor asks at the end of the book, where was the conversion from Marxist to moderate? What does Obama point to as an epiphany that shattered his juvenile musings of a communist revolution? As Kengor points out, there was none.Enter the Politburo.In May of 2008 after the Kincaid and Rommerstein press conference exposing Davis' FBI and Congressional file where literally thousands of pages on Frank Marshall Davis were released, the Obama campaign had to acknowledge that the "Frank" in Dreams from My Father was Frank Marshall Davis.The mainstream media then went into crisis mode, distancing Obama from Davis or outright lying about Davis' communism.The mainstream media quickly mocked Rommerstein who was literally the U.S. point man in deciphering the Soviet-CPUSA archives when the Soviet Union fell, portraying the press conference as a "gathering of right-wing wackos," a "UFO convention."Oddly, that is the same line we hear whenever anything relating to Obama's past is broached.With Davis' communism revealed, the mainstream media got busy.As Kengor documents, a name we are familiar with today, David Maraniss, who recently published his "definitive" biography of Obama Barack Obama: The Story, wrote an excruciatingly long piece (10,000 words) for the Washington Post three months before the election, detailing Obama's years in Hawaii and failed to mention one single time Frank Marshall Davis.An oversight?Nope.And that was just the cherry on top of the American Politburo.There were literally hundreds of articles and blogs sugarcoating and ignoring Davis' ties to Obama so that by the time of the election, Davis' communism was in the rearview mirror of the electorate, out of sight courtesy of the mainstream media.When Obama ascended the throne, David Remnick sugarcoated Davis' radicalism in his "exhaustively researched" and "definitive" book The Bridge, as a "civil rights crusader," when in fact Davis actually stoked racial division as a way to further CPUSA goals. Remnick even goes so far as to say that Congressional/FBI documents of Davis showed McCarthyite Red-Baiting, and more pointedly was at core racist. This when Davis' CPUSA connections were well-known and publicly available on the web.What Kengor's book shows is that the entirety of the mainstream media were colluding in suppressing Barack Obama's ties to communism. That in 2008 we had what amounted to a Politburo.And that this Politburo exists to this day.Why?Because as Kengor documents, the pro-Soviet rants that Davis spewed for decades in his newspaper columns mirror the anti-American, anti-capitalism rants that infect Obama's rhetoric daily. That Davis called for a stimulus. Called for universal healthcare. Called for draconian cuts to defense. Daily lambasted Wall Street, Big Business, millionaires. All eerily echoed by one Barack Hussein Obama.Newsflash:America, we have a communist sitting on the throne.And it all began in the living room of a man by the name of Frank Marshall Davis.
