Is Obama a Marxist?
self | October 25, 2008 | Charles Meek

Posted on 10/25/2008 11:54:53 AM PDT by grumpa

Please note this short video interview with Joe Biden. The key question the interviewer asks is whether Barack Obama is a Marxist with his spread the wealth idea--an idea that Biden embraces. Apparently the interview so infuriated Biden that he cancelled another interview on this program:

http://www.wftv.com/video/17790025/index.html

The interviewer quotes Karl Marx, comparing Marx’s views to BO and Joe Biden’s views. Here is a link to the quote she uses along with other info about Karl Marx:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/From_each_according_to_his_ability_to_each_according_to_his_need

There is plenty of evidence that Barack Obama has Marxist ideas. Jerome Corsi details in his book OBAMANATION a life-long series of Marxist associations Obama has had and continues to have. It is clear that Jeremiah Wright and William Ayers preach Marxist ideas. Wright’s Marxist ideas are cloaked in “black liberation theology,” which when understood is white hatred and class envy. Remember, Obama was a member of Wright’s church for 20 years, and only disavowed Wright when forced into a corner. In the case of Ayers, he preaches blatant Marxism and revolution. Obama’s claim that Ayers was just a guy in the neighborhood is an outright lie. It is now clear that Obama and Ayers had years of close association, even sharing an office together for 3 years. They made multimillion dollar decisions together on distributing funds from the various groups on which they shared board membership. There is even now evidence that Ayers helped ghost write one of Obama’s books, or at least Obama uses much of Ayers own language in the book.

But there is much more.

Obama in his book DREAMS FROM MY FATHER, Obama admits attending “socialist conferences” and coming into contact with Marxist literature. He mentions a man named “Frank” in his book as someone who shaped his ideas. This man is Frank Marshall Davis, a member of the Communist Party USA. The record shows that Obama was in Hawaii from 1971-1979, where he developed a close relationship, almost like a son, with Davis—getting advice and listening to his “poetry” and getting advice on his career path.

As a community organizer, Obama also has other far left associations. It was in Chicago that Obama maintained close ties to European socialist groups and parties through the Socialist International, and two former members of the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), William Ayers and Carl Davidson. Davidson is now a figure in the Committees of Correspondence for Democracy and Socialism (CCDS), and offshoot of the old Moscow-controlled CPUSA.

The evidence points to BO’s “spreading the wealth” idea as being the tip of the ice berg. We already know that in just one year in the Senate BO was voted the single most liberal member of the Senate. This is not just a label. Barack Obama will take this country as far left as he possibly can. He is the most dangerous politician to hit the national stage in our country’s history. We must not underestimate the danger this man represents to the American way of life.

No No No. Obama IS a marxist. But so are his voters. Does anybody understand that his supporters already know he is and they like it?

Agreed. But "socialist" IS sticking. That is major progress.

such a good point here! I’ve been saying Obama is a socialist for awhile now and so many of my’friends’ who support him say things like ‘well, maybe we need a little bit of socialism’.
He emmulates western Europe, (which is dying) and his followers love that mentality.

The evidence that Obama is a socialist Marxist is overwhelming.

The problem is, remember when Hugh Hewitt and all the 'new media guys' kept saying the Old Media was dead? Well they have just successfully elected a Marxist as President of the United States.

They whooped us. Plain and simple. Katie Couric, Brian Williams, David Shuster, Tom Brokaw, Shepherd Smith...they whooped us.

***********

Many of his voters don’t know what a Marxist is. And if some do happen to know, you are correct, they just don’t care. I believe so many of the “D” voters out there, no matter their age or intellect, are so focused on “change” to a so-called “Dem” that Obama could be Manson (or O.J.) and they’d still vote for him.

Thank you. I think a lot of us think that by exposing his communism it will cause him to lose support. I say they already know. They like it. They would not of run him if they did not think they had a majority. Perfect Storm for us. Hence my super secret escape plan is going in to operation.

Some of the Obama voters are so disinterested in knowing who the real Obama is that they are going to be surprised when Marxism hits them smack in the face...they are going to wonder what happened to our wonderful Republic and be the first to scream about things the loudest. And when they do, I’ll have zero sympathy for them.

It used to be "tax and spend liberal" that was a damning tag. But that tag does not describe Obama. Socialist is good enough as long as the masses understand it. We LOVE Joe the Plumber!

Uh, excuse me...whoever you are: Today's date is October 25th.

Election Day is November 4th.

That tell me the election hasn't been held yet and that this race is far from over.

With all due respect, you may just want to pick up your sour grapes and go elsewhere.

Socialism is when government controls the means of production. I say “controls” because the common definition, which uses the word “owns” is not suffcient. Ownership and control are really the same thing, but there are varying degrees of control. Obama wants far more control over the means of production than any President we’ve ever elected.

Marxism is socialism, but it has an extra feature: it has a class component—at a minimum, the notion that the underclass should rule, and in fact, the notion that the rich should be act as servants of and providers for the poor.

Clearly, that is what Obama is all about.

The history of socialism is to repress those who dissent, or fail to conform to the dictator’s wishes. Hitler (National Socialism) and Stalin (Communism) are both examples of socialism. They both used class warfare, criminal activity (think ACORN), lies and propaganda to gain power. They both killed millions of people, either by execution or starvation.

Obama is a socialist, using class warfare, lies, criminal activities and outrageous propaganda. He wants to establish a youth corps, like the Soviet Komsomol or Hitler’s youth movement. Just like Hitler and Stalin, he wants to make sure the citizens are not armed. He wants to destroy capitalism, freedom, and the U.S. Constitution.

What’s really incredible is that so many Jews can’t see the connection between socialism and the murder of millions of their own people. They blindly follow the “Democrat” - Obama the radical friend of terrorism.

Marx believed in revolution was necessary to move from capitalism to Communism. Lenin contribution to Marxism is that "Revolution" would be a small group or party would take upon the interest of the proletariat to bring about change to state communism. The state communist government would only be needed until "true communism" would come about. The withering of the state until the conditioned ripened to introduce the formula of "from each according to his ability - to each according to his needs."

What Obama true intentions versus what he can get accomplish by moving the US toward a socialistic state remains to be seen.
