“New Party members and supported candidates won 16 of 23 races, including an at-large race for the Little Rock, Ark. City Council, a seat on the country board for Little Rock and the school board for Prince George’s County, Md. Chicago is sending the first New Party Member to Congress, as Danny Davis, who ran as Democrat, won an overwhelming 85% victory. New Party member Barack Obama was uncontested for a State Senate seat from Chicago.” This is what The Democratic Socialist Party of America published in their July/August Editor of New Ground 47 Newsletter: “The Chicago New Party is increasingly becoming a viable political organization that can make a different (sic) in Chicago politics. It is crucial for a political organization to have a solid infrastructure and visible results in its political program. The New Party has continued to solidify this base… “The NP’s ’96 Political Program has been enormously successful with 3 of 4 endorsed candidates winning electoral primaries. All four candidates attended the NP membership meeting on April 11th to express their gratitude. Danny Davis, winner in the 7th Congressional District, invited NPers to join the Campaign Steering Committee. Patricia Martin who won the race for Judge in the 7th Sub-circuit Court, explained that due to the NP she was able to network and get experienced advice from progressives like Davis. Barack Obama, victor in the 13th State Senate District, encouraged NPers to join in his task force on Voter and Education and Voter Registration.” In other words, Obama’s well-touted 2008 presidential platform of Hope & Change is not even his own. Change is what Socialists wanted for America for decades and change is what the Socialists got on November 4, 2008. “Obama is the programmed robot of the global elite, working to usher in what some call a pre-orchestrated financially challenged world, the United Socialist States of America.”(Canada Free Press, Oct. 18, 2008). “Interesting to note that all three candidates pushed by the Socialist New Party back in 1996 are still in public office today. Davis is still US representative for the Illinois 7th Congressional District. Martin is still Judge of the Cook County 7th Sub-circuit in Illinois. For sure, Obama’s not the only activist trying to bring America under the brutal heel of Socialism. In writing about how Big Government is rooted in Marx’s Ten Planks of Communism, Robert Rohlfing wrote in Canada Free Press back in December 2012, “Let’s be honest and call the modern Democrat Party the Socialist Party.
“ We need to start being honest and have the modern day Democrat Party relabeled and call it the Social Democrat Party. There is no shame in doing so and those that have supported the party because it has a “D” next to it need not feel shame in doing so either.”Meanwhile, universalfreepress.com’s last month satirical reminder that the Democrat Party will change its name by January 2015 may be far more prophetic than satirical. Given that folk will be heading for midterm voting polls on Tuesday, the reminder that the Democrat Party is the Socialist Democrat Party of America in everything but name couldn’t have come at a better time.
