I have previously posted about Barack Obama's involvement in the socialist led Illinois New Party here, here and here.

Below are scans from New Party News Spring 1996.

They prove that Barack Obama was a member of the Illinois New Party and was endorsed by them in his 1996 Illinois State Senate race.

Note that the text refers to Barack Obama as a New Party member, while Willie Delgado is only "NP endorsed"

The New Party clearly drew a distinction. Obama was on on the wrong side of the dividing line.

Page 2 closeup-scanned from the original.


The New Party was the creation of the quasi-Marxist Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and the radical community organisation ACORN. The Communist Party splinter group Committees of Correspondence (CoC) was also involved.

I quote from Chicago DSA's New Ground of September/October 1995

The political entourage included Alderman Michael Chandler, William Delgado, chief of staff for State Rep Miguel del Valle, and spokespersons for State Sen. Alice Palmer, Sonya Sanchez, chief of staff for State Sen. Jesse Garcia, who is running for State Rep in Garcia's District; and Barack Obama, chief of staff for State Sen. Alice Palmer. Obama is running for Palmer's vacant seat...Although ACORN and SEIU Local 880 were the harbingers of the NP there was a strong presence of CoC and DSA (15% DSA)... Four political candidates were "there" seeking NP support."

Here is part of an undated New Party document probably from 1995. Scanned from a photocopy.


It lists approximately one hundred"community leaders, organizers, unionists, retirees, scholars, artists, parents, students, doctors, writers and other activists who are building the NP."

Those listed include;

Elaine Bernard-A Labour academic and prominent DSA member.

Noam Chomsky-Linguist and activist, member of both DSA and CoC.

Barbara Ehrenreich-Author, activist and DSA leader. Early this year Ehrenreich was one of the four founders of Progressives for Obama

Bill Fletcher-Former Maoist, a labour activist and leading DSA member. Early this year Fletcher was one of the four founders of Progressives for Obama

Maude Hurd-Longtime ACORN president. Awarded for her work by Boston DSA. ACORN is heavily involved in the Obama campaign.

Manning Marable-A founder of DSA and a leader of CoC. Regarded as a driving force within the New Party. Now an Obama supporter.

Frances Fox Piven-A senior DSA member. Regarded as the brains behind ACORN. Piven is now an endorser of the Progressives for Obama website.

Raphael Pizzaro-New York labour activist and former CPUSA member. An official of both CoC and DSA.

Gloria Steinem-Author and senior DSA member An Obama supporter and volunteer.

Cornel West-Academic and prominent DSA member. West now serves as an advisor to the Obama campaign.

Quentin Young-Chicago doctor, prominent DSA member. Quentin Young is a neighbour, friend and supporter of Barack Obama. he attended the famous 1995 meeting in the home of Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn where Barack Obama was introduced by Alice Palmer as the chosen successor to her Illinois State Senate seat.

Carl Davidson, former Chicago CoC National Committee member, New Party activist, associate of Barack Obama and friend of Bill Ayers, now serves as Progressives for Obama webmaster.

The originals of these documents are held in the Washington DC area. I personally viewed them when I visited Washington in May 2008.

If any journalist, media organisation or publisher would like to view the original documents they may email Trevor Loudon, to be considered-address is on the side bar under New Zeal Research Associates.

I urge my US readers to forward this post to any journalist you consider may have the courage or ability to use them to good effect.

Bloggers-feel free to copy the images posted above.

Even if was “just” endorsed by the New Party, he would have had to gone through an extensive grilling in front of a New Party panel as well as sign a contract with them.

[Joya]

Oh, right, and they just photo-shopped him into that picture, eh?

[KayEyeDoubleDee]

Thank you very much for posting that.

Someone sure like to scribble.

Here is what New Party candidates had to do:

“Alice Palmer especially has a long history with the African American left. Lou Pardo, a labor leader and New Party activist, is a strategist and organizer for Delgado.

Both Palmer and Delgado attended the forum and were thoroughly questioned by 70 or so New Party members. At the close, both publicly signed a “contract” with the New Party that was more formal and detailed than the agreement with Chandler. Two weeks later, the New Party formally endorsed them and is now mobilizing support.

This process is the best way the New Party can implement its “fusion” tactic in conditions where fusion candidates are not permitted by law. Only New York State allows for “fusion” or “cross- endorsement” by different parties for the same candidate on the same ballot. The process used to be common in U.S. elections during the last century, and was often used successfully by the Populist Party. That’s why the GOP and Democrats moved over the years to outlaw the tactic. The New Party today is fighting to bring it back. In the meantime, it is making use of the “contract” tactic just described.”

I have a feeling MSM is going to look really stupid, oops, look even stupider by the end of the week. We already know more about Joe the Plumber than we do about 0bama.

[mn-bush-man]

Uff-dah!

I’ve blogged it, and am e-mailing even as I type.

[MWestMom]

On the way to Hannity now.

“Oh, right, and they just photo-shopped him into that picture, eh?”

He admitted being endoresed by them- the caption next to the photo says that he was “endorsed” by the NP.

My personal take is that Jeremiah Wright’s sermons are what we should be spending our 527 money on. The whole New Party thing had a chance to catch fire a couple of weeks ago when it was released, which makes me think that the Hannities of the world have looked into it, not to mention the McCain campaign. The NRO “Corner” blog linked to this story 2 weeks ago, and I know for a fact that McCain campaign reads that blog. I was very excited about the New Party stuff 2 weeks ago, and when the McCain campaign said they would be breaking big news one morning I hoped that would be it. But it never went anywhere which makes me think Obama has plausiable deniability, such as through having formally run as a democrat.

Let’s remember- we’ve got tapes of Obama’s spiritual adviser of 20 years damning America. A 527 group should run that tape continuously.

If only Fox News would stay on it 24/7! At least O’Reilly and Hannity.

Rod,
Don’t know if you sent it to Mark, but am pinging him.

“The New Party believes that the social, economic, and political progress of the United States requires a democratic revolution in America. . .”

It seems to me everyone is missing the key point with respect to the New Party. It's own mission statement establishes that the New Party had a revolutionary purpose. Accusing Obama of being a socialist provokes only yawns from most swing voters. Many of them are too ignorant to be shocked by the prospect of a socialist in the oval office. A revolutionary is a different kettle of fish entirely, even a “democratic” revolutionary. (After all, both the Bolsheviks and the Nazis exploited democracy to further their revolutionary goals).

Republicans should be using Ayers, Wright, Klonsky, Rashidi and ACORN together with the New Party affiliation to hammer the point that Obama is a socialist revolutionary. They need to repeat like a mantra that Obama uses “change” as code for a socialist revolution which would impoverish our country and weaken it, perhaps fatally. His current proposals are irrelevant because they are merely a smoke screen to cover the revolutionary purpose that has animated his entire career.

That's what Republicans need to say, but they can't because they deliberately nominated a leader without enough understanding of ideology to grasp this argument, let alone make it. Whatever McCain can't say is electorally irrelevant. As a result, the New Party won't be any more decisive than Ayers has been.

Republicans truly are the stupid party.
