He sure is good at his job

Here is a snipet of an article quoting Mike Kruglik, Barack Obama's trainer in the Gamaliel Project:


Both the CCRC and the DCP were built on the Alinsky model of community agitation, wherein paid organizers learned how to "rub raw the sores of discontent," in Alinsky's words. One of Obama's early mentors in the Alinsky method was Mike Kruglik, who had this to say to an Ryan Lizza of The New Republic, about Obama:
He was a natural, the undisputed master of agitation, who could engage a room full of recruiting targets in a rapid-fire Socratic dialogue, nudging them to admit that they were not living up to their own standards. As with the panhandler, he could be aggressive and confrontational. With probing, sometimes personal questions, he would pinpoint the source of pain in their lives, tearing down their egos just enough before dangling a carrot of hope that they could make things better.
The agitator's job, according to Alinsky, is first to bring folks to the "realization" that they are indeed miserable, that their misery is the fault of unresponsive governments or greedy corporations, then help them to bond together to demand what they deserve, and to make such an almighty stink that the dastardly governments and corporations will see imminent "self-interest" in granting whatever it is that will cause the harassment to cease. In these methods, euphemistically labeled "community organizing," Obama had a four-year education, which he often says was the best education he ever got anywhere.
Is it any wonder, then, that Obama's Alinsky Jujitsu is making mincemeat of the woman who merely interviewed Alinsky, wrote about him, and spent the next 30 years in corporate law and in the lap of taxpayer-funded luxury in government mansions?

Mike is connected to Jerry Kellman who brought him out to Chicago as we as placing the Comunity organizer ad that caught Barack Obama's eye. Gregory Galluzzo and Mary Gonzales found Gamaliel and had an agreement to work with Jerry Kellman.

Branches of the Tree

Glenn talked about the Valarie Jarette branch yesterday. I have been looking into the roots of this movement, the Conservative Vice Lords of Chicago founded in 1967, and who supported them in their first attempt to "community organize". I started out looking at the Roosevelt Foundation since Glenn had mentioned them in relation to Van Jones. Then I hit the Jackpot. The Roosevelt Foundation gave them $15,000 today's equivalent of $170,000+. I looked down the list and looked and saw that the Ford Foundation gave them $150,000 today's equivalent of more than $1.5 million. Quite a bit more of an investment there.

Then I found out a direct link to that group for Obama. You know that job that his mother had to get to in Indonesia, the one that made Barack have to study at 4:30 am everyday, it was with the Ford Foundation. Their next door neighbor, Fran Korten, worked with her and knew her when Brack was away at college in the States. She and her husband, David Korten, an author of several "community organization" books , run [u][b]Yes![/b][/u] a very liberal magazine from WA. The magazine, www.yesmagazine.org, ran a very interesting article on Van Jones and one was titled, "Van Jones is a Patriot". I also found out that Danny Glover is on the board of this magazine.

This is not a huge earth shaking link but is just another example of how radicals seem to flock around our current president and you know what they say, "Birds of a feather, flock together."
Another branch, really root I want to look into a little more is the money. If Glenn wants to stop corruption in this government, he needs to take a deep look at U.S.A.I.D. It is the where a lot of money is being funneled to these organizations that support leftist causes through our government. Guess who runs this organization? The Secretary of State decides how U.S.A.I.D. fund money is spent. I'll keep digging, but anyone else who wants to pick up a shovel can join in as well.

One more interesting detail about the Ford Foundation is that it sponsors www.OneWorld.net, news organization that takes stories about social justice, green movement stuff, and unions. Yesterday they had a story about human trafficking from Africa to Italy. No mention about ACORN though.

Hope and Change Need Not Apply

In a Previous post I posted the initial organizations that contributed in the late 1960's to the Conservative Vice Lords which were:

Rockefeller Foundation $15,000
Operation Bootstrap Matched
Field Foundation $25,000
Ford Foundation $130,000
Department of Labor $36,000
W. Clement Stone $60,000

A few of these foundations have links to Barack Obama today. Rockefeller Foundation endorsed Barack Obama. Christina Ichen was Directer of Field Foundation is his Director of Public Liaison and he was on the Chicago Annenberg Challenge board with Handy Lindsey, Jr. who was president of the Illinois Field Foundation.

The biggest link is that of the Ford Foundation. They were looking for big results from the Conservative Vice Lords judging from the size of their donation, which in todays money was well over a million and a half dollars. When searching to see if their is any link between them and Obama, I came across a few articles (some that went into conspiracy Manchiruan Candidate stuff) but it looks as if there is enough evidence to support the facts that Barack Obama's mother worked for the Ford Foundation in Indonesia and also worked there with Peter F. Geithner, the father of Timothy Geithner. You could say, well that wasn't at the same time but Barack Obama was around 21 while she worked there according to their neighbor Fran Korten.

All of these Foundations have ties to USAID, which is run by the State Department and have direct ties to Peter Geithner and Ann Soetoro. I plan on looking into that on another blog.

I have also been looking into the TransCentury Corporation which also has very strong ties to USAID. TransCentury was the organization that sent David Dawley out to Chicago to pioneer community organizing with the Vice Lords. It was founded by one of the founders of the Peace Corps, Warren Wiggens and a man named Richard Irish, who latewr ran the Club for Growth PAC.

The Bottom Line: These organizations that were alive and well in Chicago in the 1960's, were there in the 1980's, and are still there today. Did they nudge Barack Obama to where he is today? What are their agendas and motives? In light of what is coming out of ACORN recently, can researching what the aims of these same organizations were in the 60's help with what they aim to do today? Some of it is pretty scary stuff for another blog.

Obama Talks to kids

Luckily for our district they have decided to tape his speech and each teacher has their own choice about it. I could not quite get my finger on why this whole thing creeped me out. Then I remembered th question, "How can I help Barack Obama?"

We tell our kids to run away from adults who ask for their help because they are a stranger danger!!! What do we say about the grown man who wants help finding his puppy or asks for directions fro ma little kid. This is why it creeps me out.

*****Who were the first community organizers in Chicago? Who funded them?***

In Street Gangs: A Secret History, we are introduced to Bobby Gore andDavid Dawley. They formed the first corporation made out of a street gang.

Bobby Gore--- Was a Vice Lord member and helped form the ConservativeVice Lord Corporation. With People Nation.

David Dawley---Went to Dartmouth in 1957 Helped set up the Corporation

Conservative Vice Lords Corporation-- Set up to make their ganglegitimate and was heavily funded by several grants.

Street Gangs: A Secret History-- on History Channel documentary (veryone sided and ignores the political gangs at the end of 18th century)

Rockefeller Foundation gave the vice lords their first $15,000 grant. Have ties to Van Jones.

They then applied for, and received, a $15,000 grant from theRockefeller Foundation, which was matched with an equal amount fromthe corporate members of Operation Bootstrap. This was followed by$25,000 from the Field Foundation, $130,000 from the Ford Foundation,$36,000 from the Department of Labor, and $60,000 from philanthropistW. Clement Stone. These groups saw partnership with the Vice Lords asa way to reach those most desperately in need. As Bobby Gore, gangspokesperson, put it, “We are of the same community and on the samelevel as community people. The average man in the street can’tarticulate to people wearing ties.” from the following site:http://www.blackinformant.com/remember/when-conservative-wasnt-a-dirty-word

http://chicagocrimescenes.blogspot.com/2009/07/conservative-vice-lords-inc.html

Tell people to watch the history channel and History international,there are a lot of leads to point people in the right direction.There are many documentaries that are made by liberal people and theyreveal how they really feel and what their game plan really is about.
