Previously unpublished correspondence between Hillary Clinton and the late left-wing organizer Saul Alinsky reveal new details about her relationship with the controversial Chicago activist and shed light on her early ideological development.
Clinton met with Alinsky several times in 1968 while writing a Wellesley college thesis about his theory of community organizing.
Clintons relationship with Alinsky, and her support for his philosophy, continued for several years after she entered Yale law school in 1969, two letters obtained by the Washington Free Beacon show.
The letters obtained by the Free Beacon are part of the archives for the Industrial Areas Foundation, a training center for community organizers founded by Alinsky, which are housed at the University of Texas at Austin.
The letters also suggest that Alinsky, who died in 1972, had a deeper influence on Clintons early political viewsthan previously known.
A 23-year-old Hillary Clinton was living in Berkeley, California, in the summer of 1971. She was interning at the left-wing law firm Treuhaft, Walker and Burnstein, known for its radical politics and a client roster that included Black Panthers and other militants.
On July 8, 1971, Clinton reached out to Alinsky, then 62, in a letter sent via airmail, paid for with stamps featuring Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and marked Personal.

When it helps her career, Hillary will sleep with men. Anyone wondering, here?
William Ayers, not Alinsky.
Oama never met Alinsky -- who died before he got to Chicago. But he was hired as a community organizer by Alinsky's successor.
I know you meant Ayers...the ayershole in the pic you posted ;-)
OOps ..I meant Ayers.! LOL
LOL...I just caught it...dah!
Just what we need.....another community organizer in the white house for another 8 years.
you are thinking of bill ayres. alinsky died when obama was 11.
These liberals are so fraudulant that when Reagan took office Mark Levin was hired. He tells of the fact that when they all got there the departments all had large quanitites of Alinsky’s book and they were passing them out like candy.
All paid for by tax dollars. Elections are one thing but if you don’t destroy the left wing bureaucracy you are just pissing in the wind. Even Levin says “you just can’t fire them” and I say BS. FIRE THEIR ASSES and make them sue. Bankrupt them in court. Expose them, shame them, show the people their arrogance like Lois Lerner and let the people shun them. Post their names, pictures, Facebook page, Twitter account, Emails, addresses, phone numbers (these days we “protect” this info while I grew up with white pages with name, address and phone number in a book for free. You could easily make a long distance call and get any white pages from any city delivered if you paid for it COD.)
F them.
Yes..thank you..I got it...
You know that’s one of the great things about FR...if you mess up someone will correct you even when not intentional. This way the truth is always found here when people give room to find it.
Don’t feel bad... All those lefties look alike to me too... :)
Who would have thought that Hillary was an A.E. Housman fan?
Regards,
lol...;)
