Obama, The Socialist

Yesterday, in trying to research a blog entry about ACORN and their organizing of bus tours to protest outside AIG exec's homes, I ran across something about Obama's past that explains what is going on with Obama, now, our President.

Basically, in 1996, Obama ran as a candidate for the New Party in the City of Chicago. The New Party -- now somewhat defunct - - was a political party that arose out of the Democratic Socialists of America and received much of its primary support from, not surprisingly, ACORN; the group that spent a lot of time in getting out the vote for Obama in this last election.

The October 1995 newsletter of the Chicago chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America (CDSA) references the New Party in a section written by Bruce Bentley (See Archived Newsletter) and clearly identifies Barack Obama as a candidate for the New Party. This newsletter shows an undeniable association between the Democratic Socialists of America and the New Party.

Obama was one of only three New Party candidates that ran as part of the New Party in Chicago. Remarkably, it was a guy in New Zealand, not any American, and his "New Zeal Blog" that uncovered the facts of this story (See Full Story).

A few other sources picked up on it -- like NewsBusters (See Full Story) and World Net Daily (See Full Story) -- before last November's election, but the left leaning, drooling-over-Obama, main stream media of America completely ignored it.

In this blog, I have used the term socialist many times when referring to Barack Obama. My basis for doing so was solely based on what I was able to glean out of his stated programs. Now, it appears I was right in that assumption. Sadly, and probably intentionally, Obama's socialism had been suppressed to insure that Obama became President.

If you don't think that mandating executive pay, seizing companies and their assets, supporting a card check system for unionizing, and all the other plans that Obama has unveiled isn't socialism; then, you've got your head screwed on wrong. To understand all this anti-capitalistic, anti-corporation activity, you only have to link to the, still-active, New Party web page (See Full Story) and read the first paragraph of their stated intention/platform.

Lastly, I would highly recommend that you thoroughly go through the New Zeal Blog link of above. There are numerous links on it that further expand on this story.
