Obama’s Communist Connection
By Ted Belman
Under this title, I referred to two reports,
“Communism in Hawaii and the Obama Connection” by Herbert Romerstein,
-
Herbert Romerstein, an author and investigative journalist, served as an investigator for the much-feared U. S. House Committee on Un-American Activities, the House Committee on Internal Security, and the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. He was head of the Office to Counter Soviet Disinformation for the United States Information Agency. One of his recent books is the acclaimed THE VENONA SECRETS: EXPOSING SOVIET ESPIONAGE AND AMERICA’S TRAITORS.
and
“Communism in Chicago and the Obama Connection” by Cliff Kincaid.
-
Cliff Kincaid is an investigative journalist who specializes in analyzing the effects of communist and terrorist influence on the U.S. media. He is founder and president of America’s Survival, Inc., and editor of Accuracy in Media’s AIM Report. He is the author or coauthor of nine books, including WHY YOU CAN’T TRUST THE NEWS, and was instrumental in denying access to the U.S. media market to the Islamic terrorist Al-Jazeera television channel.
The reports are based on direct fact-finding and special access to historical, congressional, and investigatory documents.
SPONSOR: America’s Survival, Inc., , an independent watchdog group that monitors the United Nations and international terrorism.
A number of you wrote as follows
-
“This kind of takes me back to the Cold War days, Sen. Joseph McCarthy, et al.”
“Enough of this obsession with Obama’s real or imagined affiliations ”
“The stuff your are pushing on Obama is verging on the point of “racism”, a term which I personally abhor myself.”
“where do you get this drek-are you a illegitimate step bother of roy cohn? you should feel ashamed to embrace tactics only joe mc carthy would endorse-”
These comments and many worse that I already deleted gave me a moments pause and I sent out a warning to my list that I hadn’t vetted the authors or read the articles and so could not stand behind what they were putting forth. Then I removed the post from this site.
I have now read the reports and can advise that they are well researched. Essentially they trace Obama’s Communist connection.
The report by Romerstein focuses too much on the Communist Party in Hawaii and I could have done without that. But it does connect the dots such as Paul Robeson and Frank Davis, both Communists with young Barack Obama and his wrings in Dreams of my Father. The influence on Obama is undeniable. Cliff Kincaid covers this in his introduction.
The Report by Kincaid sets out the connection of Obama with known Communists or socialists. Apparently Obama was hand-picked by State Senator Alice Palmer to replace her. Her ties to Communism are well documented.This was announced at a meeting in 1995 attended by Ayers Dohrn, Palmer and Young.
These people are all Marxists. The same can be said of Rev Wright and his church. Many blacks were drawn to Communism because it supported liberation movements all over the world and thus offered hope to blacks, as it did in the early years, to Jews.
A recent study named Obama as the most liberal Senator. If you are a liberal you will embrace him for that. But perhaps he is more than a far left liberal, he is a progressive and liberationist and perhaps a socialist. Certainly all liberationists support him including the Palestinians. His church supports black liberation theology.
These reports make the case far better than I do. It is for every voter to decide whether these reports make the case and whether it matters.
This has nothing to do with racism. It has only to do with Obama’s political philosophy.

You have to stop doing this
That is pulling snitches of history out of the whole
To understand your mistake you HAVE to go back to the workers revolution of 1917. Kirsh calls this a putsch. I replied without answer if a putsch why then did the people fight on to defend that against such odds… learn about the Civil War 1918 to 1922
Stalinism was something else again. Why not start to learn about this historically.
Stalinism was a reaction to that pressure on the workers state from imperialism.
Just as you personally and your political line, which veers and zigzags, express the pressure of Imperialism on the Jewish movement. (ideologies do have a life)
To understand Stalinism see my website
http://www.4international.wordpress.com over next few days. I print material about Trotsky in Norway. It will give idea of what Stalinism is all about, also usefully social democracy too.
Stalin was never for revolution abroad. The opposite. He was for having satellites to reinforce his idea of building socialism in ONE country, a totally reactionary idea never ever contemplated by Marxists. Stalin was in reactionary mode to Imperialism, he was the opposite of being a revolutionary, he was a counter revolutionary. Study Spain 1933 to 1939 where he murdered the revolutionaries on the Left.
Same essentially with Mao which was an offshoot of Stalin.
You are not alone Ted. Most understand nothing of this history.
How could they, schools and Media are in hands of ruling class. Are they not?
# 5 Separation of Powers is a fiction, big money controls all three branches.
felix most national liberation movements just replace one tyranny for another, there are 2 exceptions; America and Israel.
# 31 Felix Felix, Capitalism allows a few to become obscenely wealthy most comfortable and far too many left behind or left back. Communism allows a few to become obscenely wealthy and all the rest left back and behind. Now what what any sane person choose? I believe given the Choice most people would choose what the believe to be in their own personal best interests and that means most would never voluntarily choose to be with that group which is always left back in communism.
Felix I fully appreciate that the policy of intervention contravenes a long held principle of the sovereignty of nations. So once the US breeched that notion in Yugoslavia it set a precedent for doing so in Israel. I recognize the danger and have written on it numerous times.
On the other hand, we argue that the US should have fought the Nazis and therefor it would be fighting to defend the sovereignty of nations. We also argue that it should have bombed the death camps. So there are times that the US must go to war. Is it limited to protecting the sovereignty of others or can it go to protecting its vital interests. Can it extend to intervention in Darfur. One simply cannot avoid a debate on when and in what circumstances.
There has never been a time in history where small nations didn’t seek patrons and vice versa. Such ententes are mutually beneficial but they don’t come without a loss of sovereignty by the smaller nation. The trick for Israel is to manage the relationship as best it can. You describe American policy of being a patron saint as imperialism. Imperialism, I think means the extension of American power for its own benefit.
Israel must decide if it wants to go it alone or get in bed with the American elephant. I can’t see how Israel can function without allies and I see none that would be as good as the US.
I think in the end it matters little who gets the top Job in America as I don’t believe any of them are their own men or woman. Americans are manipulated into believing that they have a voice and can make a difference. Well I can say that in every case since I can remember Politicians have pretty much done as they pleased or were told and the Old Roman precept give the mobs bread and circuses seem to be the predominate prescription for keeping a lid on the masses. Isn’t it amazing that a country who only a few short year before sounded evicted Papa Bush because he was stupid elects his even more stupid son only a few years later. With whom did America Replace stupid old Papa Bush with? an Unknown failed governor of a failed state. So America Got a crook, morally deviant, unpatriotic draft dodger. The World liked Clinton because he was not a threat to any of them and all could maneuver him almost at will as form over substance ruled for 8 years and came to a head during an even more hapless occupant of the White House Georgie Boy. All of Americas woes Under Bush had at their core Clinton either inaction or actions that proved worthless based on hindsight.
Felix# 43 You give the Jews too much credit. Some Jews are discerning most not, just like most other races. You are stating gentile stereo types which some might construe to be antisemitic.
DJ Allyn;
May I recommend to you a course in civics 101, as the Primary Job of any American president from Washington till Bush jr. is to protection and safeguard the American constitution and the citizenry of the United states of America. I have yet to see a constitutional amendment where making peace is a primary or even a stated function of the presidency. Peace in most cases is preferable to war but not aways and there are cases and circumstances where wars are necessary. I am speaking here of principle and ideology. You seem to lack the former and have the latter.
When you say that you studied Islam as a course I can only guess that it was not a mainstream public school, and was an elective course that you choose. This speaks volumes as to who and what you are, I can guess that that might be a brainwashed kid from an ultra liberal family so we cannot place all the blame for your miscreant view of the world as you are in all probability a product of your ultra liberal upbringing and education.
Yes.
The big question is how.
The best way to intervene is to train and arm the victims.
Ted Belman: I have never suggested that you solely have made these outrageous and contradictory characterizations of Obama. But you have added to the hysterical tumult. oddly enough from a long term strategic point of view, I believe Obama will benefit from this onslaught. The truth is Obama has been able to receive these contant attacks and still remain a frontrunner. That has just been adding to his undeniable charisma.Moreover all these charges re reverend Wright, his alleged leftist, pro Muslim leanings will have lost its impact once the real election campaign gets underway. It will have been yesterday’s news without any oomph left.
Obama has to be regarded as a favorite to win the presidency. He represents a fresh outlook at a time when America is at a very low ebb. The electorate is dispirited. McCain is elderly, not terribly in good health, But most important is his association with a regime that is linked with a failing economy, endless and ineffective wars, and poor general management of the country.
And if you happen to worry about America turning left, and liberal, recall some very great American presidents: Kennedy, Roosevelt and Truman. The U.S. did not do all that badly with these people at the helm. They, in their time were also attacked for their liberal point view.
