The fact that Soetoro showed up on the cable freak channel, MSNBC, demonstrates just how seriously the boy takes the “news”. He wants propaganda, not the truth.
COMMUNISM
IN THE U. S. A.
The first of a series on the Communist conspiracy and its influence in this country as a whole, on religion, on education, on labor and on our government
^^No Communist, no matter how many votes he should secure in a national election, could, even if he would, become President of the present government. When a Communist heads the govern- ment of the United States — and that day will come just as surely as the sun rises— the government will not he a capitalist government hut a Soviet government, and hehind this government will stand the Red army to enforce the dictatorship of the proletariat, ‘’
Sworn statement of WILLIAM Z. FOSTER
Head of the Communist Party in the United States
If you ever find yourself in open debate with a Communist the facts here given can be used to destroy his arguments completely and expose him as he is for all to see.
Every citizen owes himself and his family the truth about Com- munism because the world today is faced with a single choice: To go Communist or not to go Communist. Here are the facts.
1 . What is Com-munism? A system by which one small group seeks to rule the world.
2. Has any nation ever gone Communist in a free election?
No. 3. Then how do the Communists try to get control?
Legally or illegally, any way they can. Communism’s first big victory was through bloody revolution. Every one since has been by military conquest, or internal corruption, or the threat of these.
CONSPIRACY is the basic method of Communism in countries it is trying to capture.
IRON FORCE is the basic method of Communism in countries it has already captured.
1 2. What would happen to my insurance? The Communists would take it over.
34. Where are their headquarters in the United States, and who is in charge?
Headquarters are at 35 East Twelfth Street, New York City. Wil- liam Z. Foster, of 1040 Melton Avenue, New York City, has the title of “Chairman of the Communist Party of the United States,” but Foster is actually just a figurehead under control of foreign operatives unseen by and unknown to rank and file Communists.
55. What is the emblem of the Communist Party in the United States? The hammer and sickle.
36. What is the emblem of the Communist Party in the Soviet Union? The hammer and sickle.
57. What is the flag of the Communist Party in the United States? The red flag, the same as that of all Communist Parties of the world.
49. What kind of people become Communists?
The real center of power in Communism is within the professional classes.
Of course, a few poor people respond to the Communist claim that it is a “working class movement.”
But taken as a whole the Party depends for its strength on the sup- port it gets from teachers, preachers, actors, writers, union officials, doctors, lawyers, editors, businessmen, and even from millionaires.

You're right... He chose Chris Matthews... that tells us what we need to know. Even a New York Times reporter would have asked more probing questions.
