Young Obama’s Red Mentor
At times the long primary and general election campaign can get tedious, as we all know from first-hand experience, but once again the wisdom of the Founding Fathers is evident.
When Barack Obama first emerged on the scene, many Americans were willing to accept him without performing their “due diligence” to make sure he was thoroughly vetted before turning over the Presidency to him. With the long campaign, however, come some substantial benefits, in Obama’s case, the information about his radical associations over the last 30+ years. This time it’s not about his anti-American ex-pastor, now new revelations come to light about his Communist childhood mentor, Frank Marshall Davis.

Election ‘08: The mainstream media have finally gotten around to revealing Barack Obama’s early mentor. But they’ve downplayed the mystery man’s communist background.
As noted in the July 29 curtain-raiser to this series, the seeds of Obama’s far-left ideology were planted in his formative years as a teenager growing up in Hawaii — and they were far more radical than any biography or media profile has portrayed.
A careful reading of Obama’s first memoir, “Dreams From My Father,” reveals that his childhood mentor up to the age of 18 — a man he refers to only as “Frank” — was none other than the late communist Frank Marshall Davis, who fled Chicago after the FBI and Congress opened investigations into his “subversive,” “un-American activities.”
In a belated story on the relationship, the Associated Press describes Davis as “left-leaning.”

If anyone has read any of Obama’s books, they would know about this Frank Marshall Davis’ influence on him - even though he was never named, it was obvious who he was.
Hopefully, this will get more exposure.
Obama is also a Saul Alinsky devotee - which is just as scary. Alinsky was a huge advocate of wealth distribution in this country - and Hilary Clinton wrote about Alinsky in her senior thesis at Wellesley. Apparently, liberals and so-called progressives just love this guy.
More Americans need to know more about the influence these men have!

All,
Good points. You probably remember that Hillary kept her senior thesis top secret for many years, refusing all media requests to review it. Small wonder.
I heard rumors after the June primaries were over that Michelle O was going to maintain a very low profile, at least until the conventions started, because she was hurting Big O’s campaign with her lefty rhetoric.
