"I got to be the first in my family to go to college" thanks to MEChA, Becerra said. Hannity repeatedly pressed Becerra on why he would belong to a group that preaches racial discrimination, prompting the Bustamente backer to complain, "Are you calling me a racist?" When the Fox host pointed out that MEChA favors the return of California to Mexico, Becerra still declined to criticize the group, saying, "I got a lot of help from people in the organization who have promoted education for kids and who continue to do that. ... What I know is what they do."MEChA is a Hispanic separatist organization (400 chapters nationwide) that encourages anti-American activities, civil disobedience, and romanticizes Mexican claims to the "lost Territories" of California and the Southwestern United States, in a Chicano country called "Aztlan." The official national symbol of MEChA is an eagle holding a machete-like weapon and a stick of dynamite. The Fabian Society and Fabian Socialism uses the teachings of John Maynard Keynes as their catechism of political economy. Like Marxism, it embraced the idea of a Communist Utopia, where the State owned everything and controlled every aspect of the public's lives. They have installed Fabian Socialism and Keynesism as the new faith, both in the universities and in government bureaucracy. Keynes supported statism and socialism, and managed and planning economies. U.S. President Barack Obama has long advocated the use of Keynesian economic concepts -- despite the fact that John Maynard Keynes was incompetent, a fraud, and accused of being a pedophile. These groups have worked diligently behind the scenes to implement their Socialist policies into our government, labor unions and throughout academia. They have infected the working class, demanding higher and higher wages, resulting often in welfare and other government handouts once their employers are ruined. They use illegal immigrants as messengers of their ideology, demeaning patriotism, and America. They have manipulated the political process so that only those candidates well-versed in Marxism receive the attention of the corporate Media.
The campaigns we developed broke new ground, organized new union workers, and increased the political impact Latino voters have had on California politics--simultaneously tripling their number of registered voters, increasing the Democratic share of that vote by 50%, and doubling the percentage of the total votes cast in California from Latinos. Through the rest of the 1990's our campaigns focused on legislative races in Los Angeles. We succeeded. But it was all small. In 2000, our message was controversial (until it worked). "If you want to make a difference, voting isn't enough. Don't bother voting unless you sign our pledge to get 100% of your family to vote." Latino turnout rose... and accounted for 14% of the votes cast according to the State's voter registration and voting history records.
On March 11, 1998, Los Angeles Democratic Socialists of America leader Steve Tarzynski wrote an email to another Los Angeles DSA leader Harold Meyerson. Tarzynski listed 25 people he thought should be on an "A-list" of "25 or so leaders/activists/intellectuals and/or "eminent persons" who would gather periodically to theorize/strategize about how to rebuild a progressive movement in our metropolitan area that could challenge for power." Tarzynski listed himself, Harold Meyerson, Karen Bass, Sylvia Castillo, Gary Phillips, Joe Hicks, Richard Rothstein, Steve Cancian, Larry Frank, Torie Osborn, Rudy Acuna, Aris Anagnos, Abby Arnold, Carl Boggs, Blase Bonpane, Rick Brown, Stanley Sheinbaum, Alice Callahan, Jim Conn, Peter Dreier, Maria Elena Durazo, Miguel Contreras, Mike Davis, Bill Gallegos, Bob Gottlieb, Kent Wong, Russell Jacoby, Bong Hwan Kim, Paula Litt (and Barry Litt, with a question mark), Peter Olney, Derek Shearer, Clancy Sigal and Anthony Thigpenn. Included in a suggested elected officials sub-group were Mark Ridley-Thomas, Gloria Romero, Jackie Goldberg, Gil Cedillo, Tom Hayden, Antonio Villaraigosa, Paul Rosenstein and Congressmen Xavier Becerra, Henry Waxman and Maxine Waters.In further preparation for battle, the California legislature just hired former Attorney General, Eric Holder. "Having the former attorney general of the United States brings us a lot of firepower in order to prepare and safeguard the values of the people of California." Kevin de Leon, the Democratic leader of the Senate, said in an interview. "This means we are very, very serious." Very serious, and very Marxist, indeed. Part 2 of this series will be published next week.
