Obama Roots In Socialism and Marxism>>UPDATE

Socialism and Marxism go way back with Obama. We learned this during the primary. This is another thing the media has let the public down on.

There has been plenty of information out there but no one will cover it. Obama even mentions it in his books. What I am going to attempt to do here is post links to things that have been written about this subject and if you have more drop it in the comments and I will post it. Thank you in advance.

Black Liberation Theology: The Enemy Within

Why Does Obama's Pastor Matter? FEB. 04,'08

"We [Americans] believe in white supremacy and black inferiority and believe it more than we believe in God."

".....Rev. Wright's devotion to the tenets of liberation theology, which is essentially Marxism dressed up as Christianity.

"One of the pillars of Obama's home church, Trinity United Church of Christ, is "economic parity." On the website, Trinity claims that God is not pleased with "America's economic mal-distribution." Among all of controversial comments by Jeremiah Wright, the idea of massive wealth redistribution is the most alarming. The code language "economic parity" and references to "mal-distribution" is nothing more than channeling the twisted economic views of Karl Marx. Black Liberation theologians have explicitly stated a preference for Marxism as an ethical framework for the black church because Marxist thought is predicated on a system of oppressor class (whites) versus victim class (blacks)."

"Key among these is reverend-turned-professor James Cone, who believes merging Marxism with the Gospel will liberate African-Americans from the supposed economic slavery of "white" capitalism. "Together," he says, "black religion and Marxist philosophy may show us the way to build a completely new society."

IBD The Audacity of Socialism Series: Sojourning Socialists SEP. 09,'08

[video here is good]

Election '08: Barack Obama has joined forces with a white socialist he calls a "good friend" — the Rev. Jim Wallis, founder of "Sojourners." He too believes in "liberation theology," sans the black nationalism. In fact, Wallis is the white version of Jeremiah Wright, sans the black rage.

Here is a link for the series at IBD.

Barack Obama has styled himself a centrist, but does his record support that claim?

In this series, we examine Senator Obama's past, his voting record and the people who've served as his advisers and mentors over the years. We'll show how the facts of Obama's actions and associations reveal a far more left-leaning tilt to his background — and to his politics.


From Free Library

Ahmed Shawki. Black Liberation and Socialism.

"This book seeks to provide the historical and theoretical context for the revival of the movement by outlining the struggle for Black liberation in the United States United States, officially United States of America, republic ...., North America. The United States is the world's third largest country in population and the fourth largest country in area. and its connection to socialism. The result is a readable and interesting survey that seeks to connect capitalism to racism and racialized oppression, and detail how the rise of the US as an imperial power "only deepened ... the ideology of racism"

Is Barack Obama a socialist? A Marxist? It is hard to believe that question could even be seriously asked of a major party political candidate.
