What I find scary are all the connections back to the Soviet Union through FMD, Jarret, and Axelrod all coming together with the Communist Party of America in Chicago. Obama started telling people he was going to be or he wanted to be POTUS back in 80’s. Professor Kengor’s research just helps to verify Tom Fife’s account back in 1992. FMD came into Obama’s life in 1990....

Now think of Clinton's murky background. Trips to the Soviet Union, questions how he got through hi Ivy League schools, etc.

It leads me to the conclusion they have groomed and selected more than a few of these guys. Some make it to office. Some to high office. What becomes of the unlucky one's, we will likely never know.

Here's another potential connection to the USSR.

Obama story is that he visited Pakistan the summer of 81, before attending Columbia for 2 years.

Facts:
1) Obama traveled to Asia the summer of 81.
2) Obama graduated from Columbia, this is according to the Student Clearing House, which also showed Obama as attending only one year, Fall 82 to Summer 83.
3) Many at Columbia, who should have known Obama, claim they did not meet him there, including Prof Henry Graff, who taught classes required of all pre-law and pol-sci students.
4) Soon after Obama was elected, the wikipedia entry for the Patrice Lumumba Peoples Freedom University in Moscow, was updated to show Obama as an alumni - it was soon updated to remove him, and the prior update was claimed to be a joke.

In my opinion this all makes sense.

In 1981, Obama did not just travel to Indonesia, and Pakistan to visit, he continued on to Moscow and attended the PFU in Moscow. Remember when Obama was elected to the Senate, he visited Russia on a Senate trip, and was detained - that is a VERY drastic action. I believe it has something to do with this. I would image that the Russian intelligence would want to gather whatever they could about any foriegn diplomat, it's possible they checked his fingerprints against their data, and up pops a kid from FPU! I'm sure that would pique their interest, and cause them to do something as drastic as detain a sitting US Senator.

When Obama transferred to Columbia, he did not just transfer his credits from Occidental, he also transferred credits from the PFU. This is why he only required one year at Columbia.

Communist Party of the Soviet Union Congress

In March 1986 Alice Palmer covered the Communist Party of the Soviet Union Congress in Moscow for the Black Press Institute[18].

Alice Palmer told the People’s Daily World[19];

I spent a great deal of time with a woman from the Novosti (Press Agency) and she and I had a lot in common...I had a chance to go shopping, just as I would if were back in Chicago...It is useful to those people who would like to demonize the Soviet people. When I stood in line, it was the same kind of line I stand in in the Jewel grocery store in Chicago. It was merely because the place was crowded, not because at the end of the line there was nothing for me to purchase.
In June 1986 the People’s Daily World published a Black Press Institute article by Alice Palmer on the CPSU conference entitled “An Afro-American journalist in the USSR”. The article praised Soviet “central planning” and included such statements as[20

“The key word at the congress was ‘acceleration.’ The Soviet plan to provide people with higher wages and better education, health and transportation, while we in our country are hearing that cutbacks are necessary in all of these areas. I think that is a profound contrast.”
“We Americans can be misled by the major media. We’re being told the Soviets are striving to achieve a comparatively low standard of living compared with ours, but actually they have reached a basic stability in meeting their needs and are now planning to double their production.”

International Organization of Journalists
Palmer, editor of the Black Press Review was elected International Organization of Journalists vice president for North America at the organization’s 10th Congress, October 20-23 1986, in Prague Czechoslovakia. She also traveled to the Soviet Union and Bulgaria during the same trip[2

Friends of Alice Palmer
The organization, Friends of Alice Palmer was formed circa 1994 and included at least three activists who were later proved to be members of the Democratic Socialists of America. These members were Timuel Black, Danny Davis and Betty Willhoite, in addition to several DSA associates such as David Orr, Miguel del Valle and Toni Preckwinkle.

Also involved were controversial property developer Tony Rezko and lawyer Barack Obama.

ETC ETC ETC...

So now do you maybe think as I do, that she might have been the source of the Russian woman’s claim to Tom Fife that the next President of the United States would be a black man named Obama?

Excerpt from Alice Palmer’s Life Under Socialism, a 1986 Report from Moscow on the Communist Party of the Soviet Union’s 27th Congress. The Article appeared in the CPUSA’s publication, People’s Daily World. Palmer was executive board member of the U.S. Peace Council, identified as a Communist front group by FBI. Palmer attended the World Peace Council’s Prague assembly in 1983 during the nuclear freeze movement. Palmer hand picked Chicago City Councilman Barack Hussein Obama as her successor in the Illinois State Senate, and it was in the home of two other known communist operatives, Bill Ayers & Bernardine Dohrn, that Obama’s ambititious career was launched
