I think there are laws against Treason. Communism is Treason and a danger to the Constitution.

So you would eliminate communism by implementing a communist law?

Being a communist is no more treason than being a Republican. Those laws are as follows:

Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.

The Congress shall have Power to declare the Punishment of Treason, but no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture except during the Life of the Person attainted.

Being a communist does not, by definition, constitute levying war, or giving aid and comfort.

Communism is the opposite of the Constitution. Communism is the “enemy” of the Constitution.

Bill Ayers is a stone cold Traitor, by definition. Obama is right behind him, not having openly levied war against the United States. But it does say "or".
