Editor's note: This information is taken from Paul Kengor's new book forthcoming from Mercury Ink, The Communist: Frank Marshall Davis, The Untold Story of Barack Obama's Mentor.
This July 4, 2012, America stands at the cusp—or looking at the abyss—of the "fundamental" and "transformational" change that Barack Obama promised four years ago. Ironically, it was also fundamental and transformational change that Barack Obama's mentor, Frank Marshall Davis, promised this exact time 66 years ago.
A devoted Communist Party member, Frank Marshall Davis, on July 6, 1946, published a column for the kick-off edition of the Chicago Star. The Star was the communist newspaper for Chicago, known among locals as the "RedStar." Davis was not only a columnist but the founding editor-in-chief. Joining him in the newspaper was a fascinating cast of characters, from literal Soviet agents to the likes of Senator Claude "Red" Pepper, who during his time at the Starwas championing a bill to nationalize healthcare in the United States, a bill written by his chief of staff, Charles Kramer, who we now know was a Soviet agent. Frank Marshall Davis himself called for taxpayer-subsidized "universal healthcare."
In fact, Davis and his Star comrades would urge many things that sound eerily similar to Barack Obama's presidency today. They blasted big business, Wall Street, big banks, big oil, "profits," "millionaires" and corporate executives for not paying their "fair" share. They urged that wealth be redistributed to "health insurance" and "public works projects." They targeted General Motors for government action. They despised anti-communists like Winston Churchill and singled out the Catholic Church as an obstacle to their vision for the state. And as they did, Davis and his comrades called themselves "progressives."
Such policy initiatives would populate the Star throughout Frank Marshall Davis' editorship...

Watch this excellent movie.
This is the real reason for the birth ceritificate "issues" and Connecticut SSN, the coverup is not about his father being a foreigner, but a leading communist agitator of the 60's.
For several reasons.
At first I thought this was ridiculous, but the more I read and the more the pieces fell into place it became clearer that this was likely.
Din’t mama obama baby sit for the marshal kids at happened to get inpregnant with the messiah?
I don’t know about babysitting for him, but he took plenty of nude pics of her in his home. Her daddy was CIA and covered it up so he didn’t lose his job during the cold war.
I can’t believe all these idiots enamored with the Chicoms.
Mao always appealed to them. “You can’t make an omelet without breaking some eggs” and “Power comes out of the barrel of a gun” goes right to the power-mad Rat’s heart.
There is no question, if you’ll pardon me repeating the obvious, that communism is aggressively gaining a foothold here, thanks to the united efforts of traitors to the constitution in government and media.
I can understand someone like Tom Friedman of the NY Times, but Ray LaHood was Obama’s token pubbie! Power corrupts!
No, Davis wasn’t his father, but he’s the one who reared him..
Fifty per-cent of the people like the rhetoric and are prepared to vote for “hope and change” in November.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but this is a center right country, and polls about Obama are misleading for a number of reasons. Pubbies show up on Election Day at higher rates compared to registered rats. Conservatives on this forum regularly state they decline to be polled. That leads to undersampling. The honesty of respondents is suspecct because disagreement with Obama's policies is routinely called racist. Hence, Obama's approval rate is suspect.
Look for huge defections from Jacksonian Democrats on Election Day. Obama is killing them with his energy and environmental policies. Why do you think the GOP got 60 percent of the white vote in 2010 for the first time in history? Why do you think the head of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is telling members of the House and candidates for the House not to attend the Democratic National Convention?
Those who say Obama is a Muslim are called nuts by the MSM yet there is plenty of evidence that he is Muslim and NO REAL evidence that he is a REAL Christian. Those who say Davis is his father are called nuts yet there is much evidence that he may be the biological son of Davis and NO REAL evidence that he is the biological son of the late Barack Hussein Obama of Kenya.
As I have said to my wife and others, in this downside up and bass ackwards world one must talk like an utter fool to be taken seriously and those who follow a logical, sensible line of thought are called nutcases.
Even with Romney the GOP should get ninety percent of the white vote this time if people have any working brain cells left. I am not by nature racist but Obama and crew are trying very hard to create a race war and they appear to be succeeding. Of course many will call me a racist for posting this but it is not racism to merely report the truth.
There are too many single white females depending on Uncle Sugar, although I think there's a good chance for the GOP to get 65 or even 70 percent of the white vote.
“Why do you think the head of the Democratic Campaign Congressional Committee is telling members of the House and candidates for the House not to attend the Democratic National Convention?”
One hopes you’re right.
But, everything they do has a calculated purpose and it’s not always what seems to be apparent.
The game is afoot and it is hoped that your sentiments are an indication of a landslide victory for whomever runs against the individual currently in the White House.
IMHO
Best Regards.
One hopes you’re right.
House Dems' campaign chief urges candidates to steer clear of convention
I posted the story. I listed more reasons for all the pessimists on this forum to reconsider their dismal outlook in comment# 120 on this thread:
Today's SCOTUS Decision Dooms Obama's Reelection
It should open on or near that comment. I could have written more reasons for being optimistic. In short, his base has no reason to be energized, and whites will flee the rat party in droves, especially those involved with conventional energy sources and fracking.
