After allegations surfaced in early summer over the 'New Party's' endorsement of Obama, the Obama campaign along with the remnants of the New Party and Democratic Socialists of America claimed that Obama was never a member of either organization. The DSA and 'New Party' then systematically attempted to cover up any ties between Obama and the Socialist Organizations. However, it now appears that Barack Obama was indeed a certified and acknowledged member of the DSA's New Party.

Reference bump! Thanks!
Your link is very interesting. Right now the link at the bottom of the page you referenced does indeed go back to the Free Press home page.
Here’s the link to this article as text, by the way. Look for this to disappear rapidly. I archived the page on my hard drive, I assume you did also.

POOR GET POORER IN FUNDING EDUCATION
Chicago Tribune - December 5, 1993
Author: James T. Durkin, Adjunct faculty member, Morton College.
Once again the State Board of Education has released its annual report on the test performances of schoolchildren and the level of funding for the 942 school districts in Illinois. The report should alarm the residents of Will and southern Cook Counties on how poorly our local schools are funded. The dollar record of a “willingness to invest” comparing the south suburbs to others is remarkable.
When one expands the comparison throughout the state, the findings do not get better. According to Mike Klonsky , education writer and a contributing editor of Catalyst magazine, there are 162 school districts on the state’s financial “watch list.” The lack of adequate funding is not limited to the recent political circus of the budget crises in Chicago. School finance actually grows as a problem the farther south in Illinois one goes.

COLLEGE CRUSADERS - TIMES AND ISSUES CHANGE, BUT STUDENTS REMAIN COMMITTED TO MAKING A DIFFERENCE
Chicago Tribune - March 5, 2000
Author: Nancy Amdur. Special to the Tribune.
EXCERPT
Klonsky’s father, Mike Klonsky , also spent his college years in the late ‘60s and early ‘70s as an activist at what is now California State University, Northridge. Mike Klonsky , who teaches education at the University of Illinois at Chicago, was a member of the Students for a Democratic Society and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. He remains active as co-director of the Small Schools Workshop based at UIC. The workshop, which he co-founded, explores issues of educational reformwith a focus on the role that small schools can have in furthering positive whole-school and systemic change.
“Each generation of young people has an interest in shaping the future that they’re growing up in,” Mike Klonsky said. “Students are interested in leading an ethical and moral life.”
“Students come (to school) with a lot of concerns about the society that they’re inheriting and a strong sense of wanting to prepare themselves to participate in society and live a moral life,” said William Ayers, an education professor at UIC and co-founder of the Small Schools Workshop. Ayers speaks throughout the country about education reform.
“am particularly interested in what he did at Columbia”
You’ll notice that the “Media” managed to find and interview THREE of Palin’s college roommates in just three days after her announcement, but they have yet to find JUST ONE roommate from Obama’s college years???
Wow, all six copies are missing:

Not sure if this one has been posted yet. If so, it’s woth repeating :) Lists Obama’s DSA endorsement and his participation on a panel at one of their forums:
“Over three hundred people attended the first of two Town Meetings on Economic Insecurity on February 25 in Ida Noyes Hall at the University of Chicago. Entitled “Employment and Survival in Urban America”, the meeting was sponsored by the UofC DSA Youth Section, Chicago DSA and University Democrats. The panelists were Toni Preckwinkle, Alderman of Chicago’s 4th Ward; Barack Obama, candidate for the 13th Illinois Senate District; Professor William Julius Wilson, Center for the Study of Urban Inequality at the University of Chicago; Professor Michael Dawson, University of Chicago; and Professor Joseph Schwartz, Temple University and a member of DSA’s National Political Committee”
A good detective OUGHT to be able to find plenty on Obama.

China’s Ideal American
Washington Post, The (DC) - September 6, 1977
Author: Jay Mathews, Washington Post Foreign Service
Secretary of State Cyrus Vance got a good reception in Peking last month, but nothing like the red-carpet treatment received by that distinguished representative of the American people Michael Klonsky .
Michael who?
It was a question asked by more than one American reader of the New China News Agency when the official Chinese wire service reported Chairman Hua Kuo-feng’s July 20 meeting with Klonsky , who got what still stands as the warmest reception ever given an American by the new Chinese leader.
Klonksy, as it turns out, is the chairman of the newly organized Communist Party (Marxist-Leninist) of the United States of America, an amalgam of various pro-Peking leftist troops whose memberships are not thought to total more than a few hundred people - if that.
Klonsky enjoyed a period of notoriety during the late 1960s when he headed Students for a Democratic Society and, for the first time, brought a radical Communist rhetoric to that New Left organization.
Klonsky told the SDS membership in March 1969 that “Our primary task is to build a Marxist-Leninist revolutionary movement,” but three months later he was deposed by so-called “regulars” in SDS who turned the organization’s attentions toward civil rights and anti-war activities.
The reception Klonsky ‘s new party and other groups like it have received in Peking, often reveals how eager the Chinese are to prove the ideological leaders of the Communist world.
(snip)
Klonsky replied, according to the Chinese news agency, “As a Marxist-Leninist party in one of the two superpowers, and recognizing our responsibility to lead the struggle to topple the U.S. imperialist ruling class, we are determined as well to make a contribution to the worldwide struggle against the two superpowers, the United States and Soviet social-imperialism, the main enemies of the peoples of the world.

Yes, confirmation that Obama would have had to sign a contract with the NP:
Quote:
Chicago New Party Update
by Bruce Bentley
About 50 activists attended the Chicago New Party membership meeting in July. The purpose of the meeting was to update members on local activities and to hear appeals for NP support from four potential political candidates. The NP is being very active in organization building and politics. There are 300 members in Chicago. In order to build an organizational and financial base the NP is sponsoring house parties. Locally it has been successful both fiscally and in building a grassroots base. Nationwide it has resulted in 1000 people committed to monthly contributions. The NP’s political strategy is to support progressive candidates in elections only if they have a concrete chance to “win”. This has resulted in a winning ratio of 77 of 110 elections. Candidates must be approved via a NP political committee. Once approved, candidates must sign a contract with the NP. The contract mandates that they must have a visible and active relationship with the NP.
The political entourage included Alderman Michael Chandler, William Delgado, chief of staff for State Rep Miguel del Valle, and spokespersons for State Sen. Alice Palmer, Sonya Sanchez, chief of staff for State Sen. Jesse Garcia, who is running for State Rep in Garcia’s District; and Barack Obama, chief of staff for State Sen. Alice Palmer. Obama is running for Palmer’s vacant seat.

Also this is fun: “The NP is strategically organizing via house parties...”
Very interesting stuff...
Thanks
Gee, whodda thunkit?
Yeah, kind of confirms the close links between Obama, Acorn and the socialist/Marxist New Party, doesn’t it.
Very interesting link, G Man.
