Let me further refer you to Obama's book, "Dreams From My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance"
"To avoid being mistaken for a sellout, I chose my friends carefully. The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. THE MARXIST PROFESSORS and the structural feminists and punk-rock performance poets."
In other words, by his own admission, he sought out and aligned himself with Marxist professors.
It is surprising to me why smart people who can read can't see this ideal in Obama's policies, politics, and governance.
- dragonwriter 11y ago> In other words, by his own admission, he sought out and aligned himself with Marxist professors. By his own words that you quote, this was done as political cover to avoid certain labeling. That quote does not support your argument.
- innocentoldguy 11y agoPerhaps not, but all the things in my other post do. This is just further evidence. You don't seek the company of Marxists, have a communist as a mentor, align your presidential campaign with documented communists, and not have that ideology rub off on you. I'm not really sure why you're having a hard time accepting that Obama leans towards that ideology. The evidence is all there.
