Obama Tells Argentinian Youths There’s Little Difference Between Socialism, Marxism and Capitalism

Barack Obama told an audience of Argentinian youth that the differences between socialism and capitalism make interesting conversation but just pick whatever works. The ideological-left US president suddenly doesn't have an affinity for ideology.

He said in the past there was a sharp division between communists, socialists and capitalists but that is merely an intellectual argument and it's not so today.

The Marxist in the White House is erasing the lines between two dangerous ideologies and the one that made the US great, just as he erased our borders. This is a man who would be at home in communist China.

"So often in the past there has been a division between left and right, between capitalists and communists or socialists, and especially in the Americas, that's been a big debate," Obama said at the Buenos Aires town hall.

"Those are interesting intellectual arguments, but I think for your generation, you should be practical and just choose from what works. You don't have to worry about whether it really fits into socialist theory or capitalist theory. You should just decide what works."

For Obama, high taxation, wild spending, government agency domination over the people and heavy regulations work which tells you what he is.

With the claim there is no difference between communism, socialism, and capitalism our Dear Leader is making a pitch for Hillary’s “Third Way”.

Government and business in partnership.

Perfect example of “Third Way” is the Kelo decision.

If someone in business wants your property for their use their partner in business, the govt, will simply take your property and sell it to them.

Kind of explains why Trump worked so hard to get Hillary and her “Third Way” elected president all those years.

Just like in Cuba - this is his victory lap. He no longer feels a need to hide his Marxist beliefs. He’s rubbing our noses in it and we deserve it for electing this man twice.

that is one of the signs of the disintegrated mode of thought

He said in the past there was a sharp division between communists, socialists and capitalists but that is merely an intellectual argument and it's not so today.

Capitalism is compatible with man's God-given natural rights, rational justice, and the God-given nature of man, and reject the use of force. Marxism, communism, and socialism are incompatible with natural rights and permit force.

Giuliani: Obama influenced by communists since youth/

By Carl Campanile and Geoff Earle

New York Post Feb 21/2015

http://nypost.com/2015/02/21/giuliani-obama-influenced-by-communists-since-youth/

Rudy Giuliani doubled down on his claims that President Obama doesn’t “love America” in an interview with The Post Friday — claiming the commander-in-chief has been influenced by communists since his youth. “From the time he was 9 years old, he was influenced by Frank Marshall Davis, who was a communist,” Giuliani said. The ex-mayor added that Obama’s grandfather introduced him to Davis, a writer and labor activist.

Giuliani also said another bad influence on Obama was Saul Alinsky, a community organizer whom the ex-mayor called a “socialist.”

The man once called “America’s mayor’’ also sharply criticized the president for having been a member of a church led by radical Chicago Rev. Jeremiah Wright. “He spent 17 years in the church of Jeremiah Wright, and this is the guy who said ‘God damn America, not God bless America,’ ’’ Giuliani said.

“Obama never left that church.”

Giuliani said Obama doesn’t measure up to past presidents.

“He doesn’t talk about America the way John Kennedy and Ronald Reagan did, about America’s greatness and exceptionalism,” said Giuliani.

“He was educated by people who were critics of the US. And he has not been able to overcome those influences.”

The way he practices it there is no difference, with only those connected to government officials able to get the contacts.

OBAMA, Our Marxist Wizard of Oz

By Peter Ferrara

The American Spectator 12/17/2011

His mother was an unabashed hippie from 1960s central
casting. His father was an openly avowed Communist from Kenya. While his father wasn’t around much, his devoutly progressive grandparents arranged for him to be mentored during his adolescent years by a dues paying member of the

U.S. Communist Party, Frank Marshall Davis.
When he went to college, he was attracted to the Marxist professors and student activists, according to his own published memoirs. When he graduated, he moved to Chicago and became an instructor for the left-wing extremist organization ACORN in the social manipulation methods of radical Marxist agitator Saul Alinsky.

He attended for close to two decades the Trinity United Church of Christ, which practiced neo-Marxist Black Liberation Theology. That church was headed during those years by the openly socialist Rev. Jeremiah Wright, who declared that the 9/11 terrorist attack on America was “America’s chickens coming home to roost.” He also famously preached from his pulpit, “Not God bless America, God da..mn America....”

He launched his political career in the living room of the home of Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, co-founders and former leaders of the openly Communist domestic terrorist organization, the Weather Underground. That organization conducted several bombings in America and engaged in other violence that resulted in several injuries and even deaths.

All of this is documented in the public record. This is the man the Democrat party took off the streets of Chicago, then pursuing a career as a Marxist street agitator, and launched into the White House, favoring him over Hillary Clinton because she was too moderate for the party. They did that because he best reflects the heart and soul of today’s radical-left, Che Guevara Democratic Party. It is in this context that we should understand and analyze Obama’s Hugo Chavez speech given last week at Osawatomie High School in Kansas.

The rest of Obama BIO

Argentines have had a recent object lesson in the differences, experiencing a revived economy under Macri after the Kirchner stagnation. Maybe they’ll be able to apply that information to this corrupt “spread the revolution” idiot’s blathering.

By his unlawful co-opting of all this “free money” obama is demonstrating the one trait that unites all dictators and wannabe dictators: At heart, they’re simply thieves without conscience.
