In his well researched book, “The Communist Frank Marshal Davis, the Untold Story of Barack Obama’s Mentor,” Doctor Paul Kengor explains not only the communist roots that pin Barack Obama to his socialist world view but also the radicalization of the Democrat Party over the last fifty or so years. In an interview with Breitbart.com Dr. Kengor explains:
Breitbart.com: This is one of the most fascinating themes in your book. As you note, it was Democrats who summoned the likes of Frank Marshall Davis to Washington to testify on their pro-Soviet activities.
Kengor: That’s correct. When Davis was called to Washington to testify in December 1956, it was by the Democrat-run Senate Judiciary Committee. These were the old Cold War anti-communist Democrats. Back then, the Democratic Party was still the party of Harry Truman and John F. Kennedy and other great anti-communists like Pat McCarran and Thomas Dodd, the late father of Chris Dodd.
Breitbart.com: But it gets better. In your book, you document how Frank Marshall Davis and other communists decided to leave the Communist Party for the Democratic Party. Why did they do that?
Kengor: Because they realized that they could never get elected as members of the Communist Party. So, they targeted the one of the two dominant political parties that leaned to the left: the Democrats.
One of the most remarkable things in Frank Marshall Davis’s declassified 600-page FBI file is a report from April 1950. It records that “members of the subversive element in Honolulu”–that is, communists–“were concentrating their efforts on infiltration of the Democratic Party through control of Precinct Clubs and organizations.” These communist subversives were pushing “their candidates in these Precinct Club elections.” One of these subversives was Davis, Obama’s mentor. According to the report, on April 6, 1950, one such candidate, Frank Marshall Davis, was elected “assistant secretary and delegate” to the Territorial Democratic Convention in his Precinct Club. That particular precinct was the Third Precinct of the Fifth District. And, for the record, as the FBI file shows, Davis, in fact, attended that convention on April 30, 1950.
Breitbart.com: How many communists did this–moved into the Democratic Party?
Kengor: It’s impossible to say. I wish we knew. But we know that many of them did. One of them was Obama’s mentor, Frank Marshall Davis.
Breitbart.com: You argue that this slow but sure infiltration of the Democratic Party moved the party much farther to the left, to where it is today.
Kengor: Absolutely. For American communists who supported this infiltration, it was this migration–and much more–that helped transform the Democratic Party from the party of Harry Truman and JFK to the party of Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama. That’s where we are today. The culmination of a long march–to borrow from Anita Dunn’s favorite philosopher, Mao Tse-Tung.
Breitbart.com: Are you saying that Frank Marshall Davis trained Obama in this subversion of the Democratic Party?
Kengor: No, not at all. I can’t say that. If that happened, I certainly have no proof. We can’t say for certain whether Davis influenced any sort of political strategy by Obama. I do find it very noteworthy, however, that Obama–as I show in the book–was probably a Marxist when he left Davis for Occidental College in 1979 (though not an actual Party member), and we do know, thanks to Stanley Kurtz’s digging, that Obama joined the socialist New Party in January 1996. Only after all of that did Obama end up as the current head of the Democratic Party.
So, in a way, Obama may have followed Frank Marshall Davis’s footsteps, even if inadvertently, by moving away from communist ties to, instead, the mainstream Democratic Party.

According to Wikipedia ati-Americanism is “defined as “opposed to America, or to the true interests or government of the United States and goes on to describe one possible interpretation as follows:
German newspaper publisher and political scientist Josef Joffe suggests five classic aspects of the phenomenon: reducing Americans to stereotypes, believing the United States to have an irremediably evil nature, ascribing to the U.S. establishment a vast conspiratorial power aimed at utterly dominating the globe, holding the United States responsible for all the evils in the world, and seeking to limit the influence of the United States by destroying it or by cutting oneself and one’s society off from its polluting products and practices.[9] Other advocates of the significance of the term argue that anti-Americanism represents a coherent and dangerous ideological current, comparable to anti-Semitism.[10]
It sounds chillingly familiar.
Some say that the communists infiltrated the green movement as a vehicle for world domination:
The Charter of the Global Greens sees Green Party politics as something far wider than simply caring about the environment. The six core strands are “Ecological Wisdom, Social Justice, Participatory Democracy, Nonviolence, Sustainability, Respect for Diversity” which looks to four movements; “the peace movement, the civil rights movement, the environmental movement, and the labour movement.”
In other words the politics of the Green Parties around the world are not just about single issue campaigning, there is a specific and integrated political philosophy even if, like all parties, this is often realised in very different ways in different countries.
Internationally each Green Party has a unique history as well as common political ground.
In Holland the franchise is called the Green Left and was formed in 1989 by a merger of the Communist Party of the Netherlands, Pacifist Socialist Party, the Political Party of Radicals and the Evangelical People’s Party. In Denmark the Green sister party is the Socialistisk Folkeparti, or Socialist People’s Party, a party formed decades ago by leading Communist Party members who’d been expelled for opposing the crushing of the Hungarian revolution in 1956.
Is America being turned toward a Marxist reality? I fear we are and realize Ronald Reagan was right about America being the shining city on a hill. Freedom is on it’s last legs here if the current crop of communists thinkers continue to hold sway over our government.
