First
we learned about the strong Marxist background of Senator Barack Obama
from his memoirs. We learned that among his friends he included "the
more politically active black students, foreign students, Chicanos,
Marxist professors, feminists, and punk rock performance poets.".
Then we learned about his "mentors" and "heroes" Saul Alinsky and Frank Marshall Davis
both card carrying members of the Communist Party of the United States
of America (CPUSA). We also learned that his father was a communist. We
know about his good friend and close adviser Larry Lessig who is also
know as the "digital communist".
Now we learn from the Sam Webb,
National Chair of CPUSA himself, his parties support for Democrats in
general and Barack Obama in particular.
Joel Wendland of the CPUSA writes in his article Landslide: Sweep Republicans from Power in November,
"At its quarterly national committee meeting this past weekend, the
Communist Party USA (CPUSA) called for a landslide in the November 4th
elections to defeat John McCain and strengthening the Democratic Party
majorities in Congress."
Wendland says, "Obama's candidacy is
unique in all of this excitement. It is transformational and new. It
has brought new forces into the process and built new organizational
forms."
"What makes it different is that it [Obama's campaign]
has the feel of a movement," Sam Webb, CPUSA National Chair said. Obama
speaks to people's desires and inspires them. "He is a fresh voice on
the political scene. His courage and astuteness are obvious," Webb said.
According
to Webb, "His desire to overcome racial and religious and national and
other divisions "strikes a deeply responsive chord far and wide."
"To say that Clinton has garnered the vast majority of the working-class vote is simply wrong", Webb said.
"Black
voters are overwhelming working class. The working class has divided
its vote between the two. Trade union voters have given a slight edge
to Clinton, but Obama has polled well and has won important union
endorsements", says Webb.
Well it looks like Senator Barack
Obama has now garnered the loving embrace of the Communist Party of the
United States of America.
My guess is that Senator McCain will
not carry the CPUSA vote. Of course he spent thirty years in the Navy
fighting communists. It is understandable they would not support him.
That
is why we support Senator John McCain over Senator Obama. One will
fight our enemies. The other will join our enemies to destroy all that
we value as Americans.
