All in the family: Valerie Jarrett and the Chicago communists
American Thinker ^ | March 26, 2014 | Thomas Lifson

Valerie Jarrett is the most powerful figure in the White House, rivalling President Obama in the scope of her influence over the fate of the Republic. Her personal Secret Service detail attests to the importance of her role in our government – in a position that is unelected and unconfirmed by the Senate. She has served as godmother of Barack Obama’s political and personal life, from introducing him to his future wife Michelle Robinson to integrating him into Chicago’s political machine and power structure.

Professor Paul Kengor provides fascinating details about her background, and that of other key members of Obama’s Chicago circle, in an interview with Jamie Glazov of Front Page Magazine. The entire interview should be read, but here are some key excerpts...

She was born in Shiraz, Iran in November 1956, the time of the Suez crisis. She was born Valerie Bowman to American parents—Dr. James E. Bowman and Barbara Taylor Bowman. Her father was a pathologist and geneticist at a children’s hospital in Shiraz as part of a U.S. aid program to assist developing countries. The family eventually returned to America, specifically Chicago, in 1963. Her mother was a child psychologist who helped establish the Erikson Institute, which (Hillary Clinton-like) specialized in “child advocacy.” The Erikson Institute got funding from the Woods Charitable Fund. If that sounds familiar to readers here, it’s because Barack Obama and Bill Ayers eventually served together as board members at Woods.

Now her Chicago roots are more disturbing — and indicative of her ideology. They also connect her to Obama and his ideological roots. ...

Obama’s mentor, Frank Marshall Davis, worked with the literal relatives of Valerie Jarrett—her grandfather and future father-in-law—in Chicago’s Communist Party circles in the 1940s.

Valerie Jarrett née Bowman was born in Iran in 1956 to African-American parents. A DNA test reveals French, Scottish and American Indian ancestry, as well. During Jarrett's formative years in Iran, she acquired fluency in Farsi and French. In 1983, she married Chicago Sun-Times reporter Vernon Jarrett. Her Iranian background and Muslim ties were carefully hidden by the Obama campaign in 2008. Jarrett’s family history is riddled with radical affiliations. In 1991, she was deputy chief of staff to Chicago's Mayor Richard Daley. Jarrett hired Michelle Robinson and introduced Michelle and Barack into a wealthy well-connected circle of left-wing extremists. As pre-eminent senior advisor to Obama, Jarrett holds a commanding position in the White House.

Well, not exactly, it is dependent upon many other factors. In this case her allegiance is from her communist education.

Quite a feat for someone who was four or five years old when she left after a year or two of Anglican school.

No, not simplistic at all. Most psychologists, including Sigmund Freud, say that the first five years of life are critically formative. From her birth to age 5+, the only world Jarrett knew was the world of Iranian Muslim culture and the Farsi language.

The evidence of a merger in Chicago of the civil rights movement with communism has been clear for some time. It is also becoming clear that there is a merger between the communist/civil rights "community" in Chicago with militant Islam.

We ought to be very careful that this cancer has not metastasized with eruptions in places like Ferguson, Missouri.

If the behavior of Governor Nixon in Missouri and the Obama administration on the national level is indicative, we have evidence of a dangerous infiltration of the Democrat party.

She’s marshalled a “take no prisoners” attitude for a while.

Based on her appearance, it’s surprising to learn she is mostly African-American.

An interesting question would be, if Valerie Jarrett is given partial immunity, who will she name? After this Obama nightmare winds down, there’s got to be some accountability for the killings and devastation that this diabolical coven of law-degreed Ivy League criminals are responsible for.

Here is an interesting article I just found on her. Yeah, I know the source isn’t so good but there is some good information.

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2008/11/11/658175/-So-just-who-is-Valerie-Jarrett

Obama and Jarrett are both mixed race. I wonder if this has anything to do with their hostility towards whites. Yeah, they’re half white but maybe they hate whites because they may have, for whatever reason, felt that they didn’t fit in. I know really understand either of them.

They do seem to have a disdain for whites. Michelle does too. It may be one reason they want to inundate us with foreigners from all over the globe. They want to diminish the white race.

She’s blessed with a brilliant mind. There’s no doubt. Elite private high school, Stanford psychology degree, U of Michigan law degree, speaks three languages, ex member of board of Chicago Stock Exchange, on board of trustees of U of Chicago Medical Center, on board of directors of USG Corp etc. But instead of putting her brains and talents to the good of mankind and the cause of individual freedom, she’s a one woman death cult and world destroyer. Her mind and soul are poisoned with enmity and revenge. It’s too bad.

Along with her other credentials, you should add "corrupt slumlord". During her tour in the city's Housing department, she learned how to scam the system. Went into business for herself, buying and running government-subsidized housing...and made a fortune. While every property she ever ran went without maintenance and fell into bankruptcy and eventual demolition.

In Obama’s case, one parent is white, the other black. It seems with Valerie Bowman Jarrett, both of her parents are primarily African-Americans but of mixed race.

They both seem to want to surround themselves with blacks and both come across as having a hostility to whites.
