Obama Supported by Long List of 1960s Radicals
Daniel J. Flynn at the City Journal details quite a list of 1960s radicals who support Barack Obama for president.
Radical Michael Klonsky of the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) is one. His group had clashes with police, and Klonsky eventually formed the Maoist Communist Party in the 1970s.
Mark Rudd is another supporter. He led an SDS chapter which formed a student strike at Columbia University. The article also says Rudd presided over the "the {SDS] organization’s metamorphosis into Weatherman" and was connected to the Fort Dix bomb plot that instead killed three Weathermen. Have he and his ilk changed much?
“Probably the biggest difference between Columbia SDS people in 1968 and in 2008 is forty years,” Rudd explained in an e-mail.
Also mentioned is Carl Davidson, another SDS nut who dabbled with Marxist groups.
Good ole Tom Hayden is another of these radicals backing Obama. Among his notorious accomplishments are causing trouble at the 1968 convention and marrying traitor "Hanoi" Jane Fonda.
Klonsky remembers Hayden plotting to spread nails on a highway; another SDS leader recalls Hayden encouraging activists to firebomb police cars.
Hayden is also one of the organizers of Progressives for Obama, a group Flynn says is a 'Who’s Who of SDS luminaries."
And of course there's Weathermen Bill Ayers who is a known associate of Obama's. Ayers is the domestic terrorist who bombed the U.S. Capitol, the Pentagon, several post offices and other locations. This is the man who said in a column on 911: "I don’t regret setting bombs. I feel we didn’t do enough."
And there are more...
Do these associations mean Barack Obama is an anti-American dirtbag like Tom Hayden or Bill Ayers? No.
But you have to ask yourself: would they be supporting Obama if Obama wasn't a pretty sure bet for advancing the kind of things they believe in?
