Obama’s Surrogate Anti-Colonial Father

My friend and colleague, Dinesh D’Souza, has advanced an intriguing thesis regarding the roots of Barack Obama, arguing, in short, that to understand Obama, we must understand the anti-colonialism of his African father. Predictably, D’Souza’s thoughts have brought the wrath of the liberal choir.

I’m not going to dissect D’Souza’s argument. But I would like to add some important information: If Obama is indeed motivated by anti-colonialism, the source may be Frank Marshall Davis as much as, if not more than, Obama’s father.

I come to this via a different route from D’Souza. My new book — released the same day as D’Souza’s, coincidentally — examined the communist movement in the 20th century, and specifically how communists duped progressives and liberals. I determined, definitively, that Frank Marshall Davis was not a duped liberal but a duping communist. I show this at length, quoting Davis’s weekly columns from the CPUSA organ, the Honolulu Record, and reprinting pages from Congressional investigations and from Davis’s declassified FBI file, including a document that lists his Communist Party number: 47544.

As to their relationship, Davis was introduced to a teenage Obama in the 1970s by Obama’s leftist grandfather, Stanley Dunham, who sought a father figure for Obama. Of all people to pick, Dunham chose someone summoned before the Senate in 1956 to testify to Communist Party associations.

    Wake up America! You are from the tribe of Joseph(Mannasseh) promised to be of greatest empire in man's history in Gen. 48:16, and your brother alone, Great Britain(Ephraim), already has achieved this promise! Now your women(remember Eve?) have appointed a "forbidden foreigner"(Deuteronomy 17:15) and self-professed Marxist(Anti-Messiah by definition) described in Revelation Chapter 11 to rule over you from the tribe of Cain! It also is written that first(Cain) will be last and last(Seth) will be first to be saved! The Anti-Christ of Revelation has been put in power to kill you and steal your promise of salvation by your women to take away your promise, but they will fail! Watch!

  3. This is why obama is both a Muslim and a communist !!

    Who's Your Daddy!

    Without DNA testing no one in fact can state undeniably who Obama's father was?
    Obama's mother was so enamored with black men that the actual father could be Frank Marshall Davis or even Malcolm X.

  5. Obama is simply out to punish certain Americans, white, prosperous ones in particular. I care very little about who influenced Obama's value system, but I do care that our President has a value system that is decidedly un-American and in my opinion, racist. Redistribution of wealth through tax increases upon anyone with a job, bailing out banks without actually doing anything to help middle class homeowners, extreme softness on the subject of illegal immigration and most of all, having working Americans foot the health care bill for those without health care – these events have outraged most Americans. Basically, he's hit several major nerves for main-stream Americans I can only hope that the anger and insult felt by most Americans is reflected in the upcoming election results.
