A fawning report on his campaign that ends with this endorsement:
The Sanders campaign is a wonderful development for 2016 and beyond in many ways.

At the grass roots across the country, Bernie Sanders is not necessarily a household name. As well, the corporate media does not want this name and program to be known. Introducing who Bernie Sanders is, what positions he is running on, and the bigger significance of his campaign cam be brought to every community in a way that is inclusive of those in progressive circles who support Hillary Clinton or others.

For those not familiar with the CP-USA, it is the most hardline of American Communist groups and was directly controlled by the USSR from it's inception until the fall of the USSR. Even the brief and whitewashed history available on Wikipedia makes it clear that the CP-USA was closely allied with Stalin and the USSR in the Cold War period. From Wikipedia:

The Party's membership in the Comintern and its close adherence to the political positions of the Soviet Union made the party appear to most Americans as not only a threatening, subversive domestic entity, but also as a foreign agent fundamentally alien to the American way of life.

Funny the NY Daily News, which has ample space for promoting every wack-job cartoon character endorsing Trump, has yet to report on the CP-USA strong support for Sanders, going so far as instructing members on how to organize for him.

Smoking gun: YES.
Mainstream media reporting: NO.

If I am not mistaken, they also endorsed 0bama twice. According to most rating organizations, in 2007, Bernie was not the “most leftist” on the rating scales of United States Senators.

The junior senator from Illinois beat him by voting more conisistently “left” than he did.

Just Monday afternoon food for thought.

If it encourages Bernie to run Third-Party, then it’s all good.
