If it is your opinion that he is a Communist, very succinctly indicate your reason(s) why.
If you do not believe he is a Communist, also provide substantive reasons that back this up.
He’s a Neo-Marxist Statist. He support Democratic socialism, but if he had his away America would be communist.
In Obama’s case it is.
Absofreakinglutely!
When I first saw Obama, I remember I was standing on the porch of Boss’s parents’ impressive home as a sleek, expensive luxury car pulled up the driveway. Two young men emerged from the vehicle. They were well-dressed and looked like they were born to wealth and privilege. I was a little surprised to learn they were Boss’s friends from Occidental College until she articulated the underlying0 political connection. “They’re on our side,” she said.
The taller of the two was Obama, then only 19, who towered over his five-foot-five companion, Mohammed Hasan Chandoo - a wealthy, 21 year old Pakistani student. Chandoo had a full dark black, neatly trimmed moustache, and was dressed in expensive clothes. Nevertheless, Obama was the more handsome of the two. At six foot two, Obama carried himself with the dignity and poise of a model. The diminutive Chandoo, in contrast, came across as more of a practical, businessman type. Obama displayed a visible deference to Chandoo when they were standing together at the vehicle.
Chandoo was vaguely familiar to me as a participant in the earlier anti-apartheid rallies on the Occidental College campus. In David Remnick’s book, The Bridge, Chandoo’s bona fides as a committed Marxist were well-known to those close to him. Chandoo’s girlfriend at the time, Margot Mifflin, told Remnick that “[I]n college, Hasan was a socialist, a Marxist, which is funny since he is from a wealthy family.” (See, Remnick, David, The Bridge, Alfred A, Knopf, 2010, page 104.) Young Obama, on the other hand, was completely new to me.
“This is Barack Obama,” Boss said.
Since I was not much taller than Chandoo, I remember I looked up at Obama as we shook hands. I was completely mystified by the pronunciation of his name. He did not put up a fight over it, however.
“You can call me Barry,” Obama said.
During the introduction, Boss and Chandoo were eager to let me know that Obama was a graduate of the prestigious Punahou Academy, an elite prep school in Honolulu. I vividly remember that Chandoo was intensely proud of Obama’s ties to Punahou. This prestige, however, was wasted on me. I had never heard of the school and did not have a clue about what it meant to be one of its graduates. Obama seemed embarrassed by the fuss. Boss, I remember, wanted to make sure I understood that young Obama was not merely an attractive socialite dabbling in Marxist theory. “You’ve worked with us,” she observed. “You’ve been at our DSA meetings. You’ve been active in the anti-apartheid movement.”

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of president of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."
The Kenyan Barry Barack Hussein Obama Soetoro has proven to all that he is a socialist,a marxist, a fascist and a communist all rolled into one bundle of misery for hundreds of millions of people all over the world……including where he has tried to put this beloved Moslem Brotherhood into power in North Africa and the Middle East.
Excellent reply. As democrats saddle every life experience negatively to Republicans, this is fair play for Obama and his party.
Veritas2002 wants hard proof however. ObamaCare. It will destroy private insurance and as it’s doing presently, it will whittle away our freedom of religion and speech. But because of Obama’s Communist associations, he knows that the key to controling people is health care. More proof is Obama’s recess appointments that have ignored the Constitution; his packing the Supreme Court with two women who hold his Communist views. I’m not going to dig up quotes by the Wise Latina woman or Keagan who actively worked and rooted for ObamaCare. But it’s out there.
Obama hides behind his facade and the media will always allow this never digging deeper because to do so would harm their guy.
Yes - Settled Science.
BS, that’s what he wants you to think, sorry pal, dead wrong.
He lied......
Trevor is a brilliant researcher! BRILLIANT!
Yes, there is no doubt in my mind that Obama is a communist for all of the reasons stated in post #9 and then some.
of course the kenyan lizard is a commie...no question
Obama certainly has Marxist leanings that go beyond mild European style socialism. He is on a vendetta to punish the wealthy i.e those making over $200,000 and redistribute their income to the have nots and hangers on. He clearly favors state control of industries either through direct takeover like with GM or through punishing regulations that force businesses to conform to his ideals. He has no understanding of the free market or capitalism.
Bottom line is Obama a communist? IMHO not really, but he certainly has a Marxist perspective that goes beyond socialism.
Democrat, social democrat, socialist, progressive, Marxist, communist...all the same in differing degrees. Like a little or a lot of sewage added to your drinking water; either way, it is polluted.
