The Truth About the Community Organizer

On January 20, 2009, America sworn in its first community organizer turned president. As they did in the campaign, every major media network paid little attention to the big story and emphasized President Barack Hussein Obama's race everywhere you turned. Governor Paterson of New York, successor of the disgraced whore-monger Eliot Spitzer, even suggested that mentioning the term "community organizer" at repetition amounted to racial overtones.

Unfortunately, the GOP used it as a laughing matter to make a point about Obama's second greatest weakness - his lack of experience. Throughout the campaign, John McCain was sure to avoid the subject of Obama's greatest weakness - his radical political mentors.

Take the third presidential debate for example, with Bob Schieffer. McCain was asked about Obama's associations with Weatherman Underground bomber William Ayers, a man who is said to desire the extermination of 25 million capitalists who refused to fold on their convictions. At first, McCain dodged the question entirely. It reached a point where Schieffer had to push McCain to even discuss the issue.

While coming off as passionate about running a dignified campaign, McCain was clearly disinterested in revealing Obama's controversial past. Sarah Palin was able to scratch the surface on Obama's past, but only used the "community organizer" title for humorous purposes.

You may want to take a deep breath before I go on.

According to L. David Alinsky, the son of Saul Alinsky, Obama is a master of the tactics his father taught. In the Boston Globe, he wrote this letter to the editor:
"ALL THE elements were present: the individual stories told by real people of their situations and hardships, the packed-to-the rafters crowd, the crowd's chanting of key phrases and names, the action on the spot of texting and phoning to show instant support and commitment to jump into the political battle, the rallying selections of music, the setting of the agenda by the power people. The Democratic National Convention had all the elements of the perfectly organized event, Saul Alinsky style.

"Barack Obama's training in Chicago by the great community organizers is showing its effectiveness. It is an amazingly powerful format, and the method of my late father always works to get the message out and get the supporters on board. When executed meticulously and thoughtfully, it is a powerful strategy for initiating change and making it really happen. Obama learned his lesson well.

"I am proud to see that my father's model for organizing is being applied successfully beyond local community organizing to affect the Democratic campaign in 2008. It is a fine tribute to Saul Alinsky as we approach his 100th birthday."
Saul Alinsky was a transformational Marxist who was deeply influenced by Antonio Gramsci, an Italian communist philosopher. Gramsci and Alinsky believed that you could not change the West with a confrontation. Instead, a "long march through the institutions" was required to change it from the inside out. As opposed to a Bolshevik-style revolution, a revolution on the United States would have to be achieved through the democratic process by the practice of infiltrating the institutions, such as churches, courts, universities, and schools through a trained stealth facilitator - otherwise known as a community organizer.

In an effort to appear centrist, Alinsky and his followers would frown upon overt 1960's throwbacks that protested the Vietnam War and lacked personal hygiene. They would dress professionally as they spoke to the common man. When speaking to the middle class and their blue-collar followers, they would persuasively articulate what they called "common sense solutions for working families." Only in their inner circle would they vent about "racism," "sexism," and "oppressive corporate systems."

The ultimate goal of the community organizer was to weaken the firm beliefs of the middle class through a series of discussions among a diverse group in order to achieve a pre-planned outcome. In short, it is twisting the truth to achieve a concensus among the group.
In order to achieve the consensus, the meetings must consist of all five of these elements:

- a diverse group
- dialoguing to consensus
- over a social issue
- led by a trained facilitator
- toward a pre-planned outcome.

The diversity of the group is necessary in order to shake down an individual's firm convictions by the means of peer pressure. The fear of a man's rejection from society will cause him to remain silent about his convictions unless he is to change his mind. The goal of this manipulative process is to achieve a paradigm shift - a change in the individual's thought process altogether.

Obama's ties to Alinsky are furthermore exposed in a speech given by Michelle Obama on the campaign trail. The language was nearly identical to Chapter 2 of Saul Alinsky's stealth Marxist manifesto, Rules for Radicals. From Michelle Obama:

"Barack stood up that day and spoke words that have stayed with me ever since. He talked about 'The world as it is' and 'The world as it should be...All of us driven by a simple belief that the world as it is just won't do -- that we have an obligation to fight for the world as it should be."

This utopian tidbit is based on this selection found in Rules for Radicals:
"The means-and-ends moralists, constantly obsessed with the ethics of the means used by the Have-Nots against the Haves, should search themselves as to their real political position. In fact, they are passive -- but real -- allies of the Haves... The most unethical of all means is the non-use of any means... The standards of judgment must be rooted in the whys and wherefores of life as it is lived, the world as it is, not our wished-for fantasy of the world as it should be."
