You really should read the entire thing when you have time. It’s worth it and important.

Obama is a socialist, trained in socialist policies and political activism.

Obama was trained by the Alinsky-founded Industrial Areas Foundation (IAF) in Chicago and worked for an affiliate of the Gamaliel Foundation, whose modus operandi for the creation of “a more just and democratic society” is rooted firmly in the Alinsky method.:”

Obama’s campaign is replete with riffs on socialist themes.

It is ‘dog-whistling’ - telling the lefties and radicals what they want to hear, without alerting the rest of us to its latent radicalism.

Like the “Yes, we can” its “Si se peude!” from Cesar Chavez’ union, so to most ignorant Americans it sound like good old-fashioned American can-do spirit, but to leftist agitators its a signal - “Hey, I’m a fellow traveller, yes we CAN move the country left.”

Similarly, he used the words of Malcolm X to black audiences.

The short answer: Obama is a commie.

Important to most should be the key eplaination offered as to the difference between liberals and radical. The next to paragraphs explain it well.

“Alinsky had no patience for those he called the liberals of his day—people who were content to talk about the changes they wanted, but were unwilling to actively work for those changes. Rather, he favored “radicals” who were prepared to take bold, decisive action designed to transform society, even if that transformation could be achieved only slowly and incrementally. Wrote Alinsky:

LIBERALS FEAR power or its application.… They TALK glibly of people lifting themselves by their own bootstraps but fail to realize that nothing can be lifted except through power…RADICALS PRECIPITATE THE SOCIAL CRISIS BY ACTION…BY USING POWER. LIBERALS PROTEST; RADICALS REBEL. LIBERALS BECOME INDIGNANT; RADICALS BECOME FIGHTING MAD AND GO INTO ACTION. Liberals do not modify their personal lives[,] and what they give to a cause is a small part of their lives; radicals give themselves to the cause. Liberals give and take oral arguments; radicals give and take the hard, dirty, bitter way of life.”
