What is the Obama Dictionary?

This is a non-partisian essay, not endorsed by any political party, nor telling you whom to vote for on Nov 4, 2008. This information may lean the reader to vote either for or against Senator Obama, as it is only intended to provide a fuller understanding of the candidate and his agenda. Indeed, all voters should spend time at each candidate’s website. [Obama] [McCain]

This document is purposely concise, but also provides starting points for your own research searches via sites such as Google and YouTube. Scanning about 10 returns provides a good overview of various viewpoints. Add terms for more specific searches.

#1) Understanding Saul Alinsky

A Chicago socialist of the early 1900’s, son of Russian immigrants, he literally “wrote the book” on community organizing. Rules for Radicals defined guidelines for bringing “revolutionary change.” Alinski sought to organize the “Have-Nots on how to take power,” so to change "the world from what it is to what they believe it should be.”

Alinsky’s strategy was to use the system so that the mass of people “must feel so frustrated, so defeated, so lost, so futureless in the prevailing system that they are willing to let go of the past and change the future.” The revolution would then come when the lowest 40% class eventually cease to be passive.

Alinsky influenced the entire Chicago social political scene, and touched all of the areas Obams worked in as an organizer, lawyer and legislator.

#2) Understanding “Community Organizing”

Chicago politics are now inseparable from community organizing, whose main functions are the registration of voters (in many cases creating famous fraudulent applications) and the agitating of institutions (especially banks) and political leaders to bend to their agendas. What started as “backyard organizations” are now well-funded machines, nearly exclusively for the Democratic party.

Obama worked for the Developing Communities Project, and later as a lawyer represented ACORN (suing CitiBank to make more sub-prime loans), two Saul Alynski-styled community organizations.

#3) Understanding William (Bill) Ayres

Founder (along with his wife Bernadene Dohrn) of the Domestic Terrorist group the Weather Underground, who later followed Saul Alynski’s Rules and turned to implementing his values within the Chicago and national education system. He greatly shaped the course of Obama’s political career, serving on boards together and possibly ghost writing Obama’s Dreams from My Father. Dedicated his 1974 communist manifesto Prairie Fire to Pro-Palestine Sirhan Sirhan (who assassinated Pro-Israel Bobby Kennedy.) Barak’s wife Michelle and Ayre’s wife Bernadene worked in the same activist law firm in the 80’s and 90’s.

#4) Understanding Jeremiah Wright

Obama’s pastor of 20 years, and close friend of Louis Farrakhan. Preacher of “Black Liberation Theology,” which also has ties to Saul Alynski’s teachings, but with a decidedly racial emphasis.

#5) Understanding “sub-prime loans” and “bailout”

Banks were pressured by legislation and community organizing groups to make loans to those who otherwise would not qualify. Heightening in the 90’s as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were given increased latitude, money flooded the market and housing prices spiraled upwards. When defaults avalanched, the pyramid scheme collapsed, insurance pools dried up, and the government came in to pick up the tab. Homeowners now pay more for their own home, and pay for someone elses’, too.

In just 3 years as a Freshman Senator, Obama became the #2 receipient of Fanney May lobbying money. Why? Simple: His reputation of pushing out their sub-prime loans and helping fund developers like Tony Rezko.
