ALINSKY: ... if there is an afterlife, and I have anything to say about it, I will unreservedly choose to go to hell.
PLAYBOY: Why?
ALINSKY: Hell would be heaven for me. All my life I've been with the have-nots. Over here, if you're a have-not, you're short of dough. If you're a have-not in hell, you're short of virtue. Once I get into hell, I'll start organizing the have-nots over there.
PLAYBOY: Why them?
ALINSKY: They're my kind of people.
"“Lest we forget at least an over the shoulder acknowledgment to the very first radical: from all our legends, mythology and history (and who is to know where mythology leaves off and history begins - or which is which), the very first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom - Lucifer.” ― Saul D. Alinsky"
Biographer Sanford Horwitt - U.S. President Barack Obama was influenced by Alinsky and followed in his footsteps as a Chicago-based community organizer. Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign was influenced by Alinsky's teachings.
Just giving credit where credit is due.
Poor Alinsky.
He isn’t “organizing” anyone, anywhere.
He will simply be blotted out for eternity, as well he should be.
Alinsky is pretty flippant about it all but in the end he most likely has gotten his wish.
Probably the only thing he is faced with "organizing" in hell these days is his next agonizing scream - and that will go on forever...
