The Obama-file 1 Forget Islam-Look at Obama's Socialism!

There is no doubt that Barack Obama is an engaging and charismatic individual.

It is also likely that whatever the outcome of the 2008 presidential race, Barack Obama will be an influential figure for some time to come.


But what does Barack Obama actually believe? Where does he fit on the political spectrum? What would he do in office? Who would he promote? What would he support?

Few actually seem to know.

While Obama acknowledges he is from the "progressive wing of the Democratic Party"-that is the far left, he still manages to attract centrist and even some conservative support.

Some libertarians even seem to think he is one of us!

While many have focused on Obama's boyhood Islamic ties and his extreme left voting record, his Marxist ties have been almost completely overlooked.

While Hillary Clinton's radical past has been well documented, Barack Obama's much more recent links remain largely uncovered.

I'm sure this will change. I'm sure Barack Obama's opponents in the Clinton and Republican camps are googling his name as we speak.

I have posted here, here, here, here and here on the Communist Party's love of Obama, but that doesn't prove that Obama supports the Communists.

In the rest of this series, Ill be covering aspects of Obama's links to the far left, particularly in his home town of Chicago.

The series won't be in chronological sequence. Each piece will focus on Obama's links to the far left-past and present.

I hope you will find it enlightening.

It should be noted that atlasshrugs.com 6/13/2010 lists evidence indicating Egyptian Foreign Minister Abul Gheit says that Obama assured him the he is a Muslim!

The first thing we must do is actually understand what we are talking about.

There really is no one economic or political system called capitalism. Hypothetically, one interpretation of "capitalism" means that whoever gets the most riches of the society through free market system also gets the power, period. So capitalism is just a means to gain power.

Now, there are the political definition of capitalism and the economic definition of capitalism.

In political capitalism, that definition extends to all kinds of political systems.
In the old monarchies, the emperor owns the country. So he is the richest and the biggest capitalist. But he had to be born into the royal family to get his capitals instead of on the free market.
In communism, the officials in power get all the capitals, so they too are the biggest capitalists. But they have to slaughter all their opponents to get their capitals.
In dictatorship, the dictator also owns all the riches and the power. But he usually gets murdered.

In economic definition, capitalism means the richest guy controls the political power. That's the Republican view.

In socialism, everybody has to share what they earn to sustain the society. The biggest capitalist also has to put up the biggest share.
In democracy, power is supposed to come from every vote, not necessarily from capitalists. No where is it written that capitalism has to be a part of democracy That's the Democratic view.

US of A is one of the earliest and oldest socialist countries in the world. It started when the forefathers demanded equal representation for equal taxation........ that's socialism.

However, the word "socialism" became a dirty word in America because of the war with Nazi Germany, and the cold war with the Soviets, which were both democracies in a straight sense of the word (neither of them were monarchies, and both claimed to be socialists). So Americans embraced "Capitalism" as the rallying cry against "Socialism". The enemies were "socialists".

Now if we say that America is a "Captitalistic" society, which type of capitalists are we talking about? The Monarchs? The Communists? Or the dictator??
If we say that America is NOT a "socialistic" society, well then, that means demolishing the tax system, getting rid of the military, and abolishing the supreme court.

So, where do we go from here? What "ism" do we stand for, really? All of the above, or some of the parts of all of the above? Perhaps we need to spend some time coming up with a coherent definition of what we stand for and what we want this country to mean instead of just using brickbat rhetoric to express our rage.

Look what's happening to Beck who was all rage all the time. The ears of America become tired to that stuff. They will tire of cut, cut, cut also; the polls show that that is already happening.

We must offer a comprehensive and coherent message to validate the movement.
