4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.

Interesting.

I would love to send this to all Libs in my family and ask them to please redefine themselves as Communists and move to an appropriate country.

A lot of this was seen in the "STOP RED TRADE" movement by Young Republicans in the 1960s in attempt to stop trade with the USSR by IBM, Firestone, and others.

Dude, this sounds scary. Makes you wish for another Augusto Pinochet or Park Chung-hee.

15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.

Mission accomplished on that one. .....and on so many others.

If our enemy can destroy two vital institutions in America they will win

1. First is The Traditional Christian Family

2. Second Supreme Court Judges...

If they get the first they can destroy the 'internal policeman' each citizen must have to live free and be a good partner Democracy flourishes...if the internal policeman is never allowed to develope then Democracy will destroy the USA

If they get the second then the Constitution will be done away with...they can use the excuse of citizens who cannot handle freedom and have no internal locus of control to usurp the Constitution in favor of protecting citizens which is also their duty...

its a one two punch..

imo

Thursday, January 10, 1963 - 41 years ago - Where were our watchdogs? Warned - yet ignored -

With so many of the items coming about - it's hard to believe the goals aren't being followed/carried out by people/groups in this nation - (And in high places)

How about someone send this to President Bush - and get his thoughts on it - Is this "his" view of America - He seems to agree with some of the goals and has backed them - I wonder if he had any idea of the true "reason" behind the moves -

Of course - from recent and past actions - The major media appears to be one of those working for the goals - maybe even one of the "leaders" -

I hope all of Congress takes note - but with the China issues - it may already be too late -

just thoughts - took 41 years - perhaps a step plan to reverse the harm wouldn't hurt -

Lessee, in 2004 the democrat party ran someone for president who, thirty years earlier, was a known collaborator with the Communist enemy. Hmmmm...

In another lifetime (my school days) my 7th grade geography teacher explained to us that Social Security was a pyramid scheme and would eventually fail- in our lifetime. He also discussed many of the ideas on this list. He was able,in simple language,to get into our heads not only the impracticality of communism- but show us how everything about it was opposite our Constitution and destructive of liberty and freedom.

I've never seen this list before- but it seems familiar because of the wisdom of my teacher.

Here's a side-note. My schooling was in New England- Massachusetts to be precise! I'm a babyboomer, and when I was growing up New Englanders were an independent and self-sufficient bunch. The word welfare was used in ref to safety or general health. If a family was in trouble financially, the doctor wouldn't charge them for visits, the bank would let the mortgage go a few months, and the church would make sure the kids were fed and cared for. This almost never happened- New Englanders were hard and honorable workers.

When I go home now, I keep looking to see these people, hoping they're still there...hoping against hope. I'm sure in some little villages, pockets of sanity are still there...I just don't see them.

This list is sobering.

The underlying purpose here was to demolish the traditional society which was seen as the main impedement to implementing a true communist program. In the intervening years they have accomplished much of what they set out to do in 1958 and earlier.

5. Extension of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.

Well, we actually owe the Red Chinese quite a bit of money these days, something I don't believe that even our most pessimistic folks in the 1950s would have ever guessed we would ever be in debt to the Chicoms.

It appears that they also missed shipping our industrial base over to the Chicoms.

If I were a 1940s/1950s/1960s Soviet Analyst trying to find out how to break the bonds that make America so great, I would start by looking at the Constitution. I would say to myself "Where's the flaw in the original constitution?" And then I would realize that although our system is set up on a system of checks and balances throughout the three branches of government, I would realize that one branch has far more power over the other branches and far ess power over it: The Judicial Branch.

In the executive-legislative relationship, there is an excellent "checks and balances" system: The Executive Branch can veto congressional legislation by the stroke of a pen, and the legislative branch can pass veto-proof legislation.

But moving on to the Judicial-Legislative relationship, there is a disporportional relationship: Congress can pass legislation, but the Judicial Branch can in effect veto it through Judicial Review. To override that decision, a Constitutional Amerndment must be passed with 2/3 support in Congress and ratification by 3/4 of all states. It is a massivley disporportional balance that our Founding Fathers did not see.


As this hypothetical Soviet Analyst, I would then come to the conclusion that by side must work through the courts to get what I want, but how? I would discover that after a painful, bloody Civil War, the United States in it's haste passed an amendment to it's constution, albeit illegally, that outlawed state sovereignty and trumped every other porivision in the constitution. That's right, the 14th Amendment. When fully enforced, the amendment technically states that the laws of one state cannot conflict with the laws of another. Although the Constitution was written to constrain the Federal Government, incorporation of the 14th Amendment into the Bill of Rights makes the Constitution restrict states rights rights as well.

Because of this loophole, all we (the Communists) need to do is pass a law or get a law overturned in only one state and it will apply to all 50.

We will get our friends in to the law profession, who have backstage access to the courts, politics, and business. We can sue, defame, and attack anybody who does not agree with us. Some of our more senior operatives will oneday put a robe on and gain immense power.

It's not a bad plan....

The irony of this document is that Congressmena Herlong, the man who entered Skousen's work into congressional record, was in fact a Democrat. Ironically, it is that man's very party would by taken over by the Hard Left just 5 short years later (1968).

Question: Is this for real? I mean, really really real? It sure seems official, yes. But it also seems a little too neat and convenient, for our side. I've seen it crop up in many venues over the years, and every time I read it, I find myself saying Yes!, Yes!, Yes!...uh, wait a minute. This is not a challenge. This is a question.

David Horowitz, the Editor of FrontPage MAgazine, was raised as a communist in Brooklyn, a "red daiper baby". He discovered the fallacy of the entire movement and is now THE staunchest anti-communist/anti-leftist in America today. Maybe Horowitz should run for office....

This is scary. But I have a question for anybody out there. Did they mention anything about taking control of the Police departments?
