Rules for Radicals: A Primer for Realistic Radicals - by Saul Alinsky <BR> <BR><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Rules-Radicals-Saul-Alinsky/dp/0394717368?tag=dogpile-20" target=_top>http://www.amazon.com/Rules-Radicals-Saul-Alinsky/ dp/0394717368?tag=dogpile-20</a> <BR> <BR>Note these reviews: <BR> <BR><blockquote><hr size=0><!-quote-!><font size=1><b>quote:</b></font><p>This book is a must read for all to understand radicalism and how their goals are achieved. This book was essentially the blueprint for the Obama campaign. Saul Alinsky and his views are admired by both Obama and Hillary Clinton. - J. Fickes <BR> <BR>Mr. Alinsky captures the outrage organizers have with the status quo. 'Why organize?' is the central question that permeates throughout this book, and Mr. Alinsky answers this question with a scathing attack on the powers that be, who are beholden to maintaining the status quo. Mr. Alinsky allows the reader to not just dream of a better America but doles out powerful, practical methods to either; A. work within the current system to effect positive change, or B. bring the system to its knees in the quest toward positive change. An absolute must read for anyone wishing to take on the status quo of poverty, injustice, hatred, and discrimination. <a href="mailto:-saggau@earthlink.net">-saggau@earthlink.net</a> <BR> <BR><!-/quote-!><hr size=0></blockquote>

A direct, eyeopening quote directly from the book makes you wonder if Obama isn't the AntiChrist as some have suggested: <BR> <BR><blockquote><hr size=0><!-quote-!><font size=1><b>quote:</b></font><p>Lest we forget at least an over-one-shoulderacknowledgement to the very first radical: from all our legends, mythology, and history (and who is to know where mythology leaves off and history begins -- or which is which), the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom -- Lucifer." - Saual Alinsky, Rules for Radicals<!-/quote-!><hr size=0></blockquote>

Here is another amazing review of this book respected and studied by Obama and Hillary Clinton: <BR> <BR><blockquote><hr size=0><!-quote-!><font size=1><b>quote:</b></font><p>A Guide on How to Destroy America, October 14, 2008 <BR> <BR>This review is from: Rules for Radicals (Paperback) <BR> <BR>Saul Alinsky's classic "Rules for Radicals" is a step-by-step guide on how to overthrow American capitalist democracy and replace it with a communist dictatorship. It outlines steps and actions that must be taken in order to lie, organize, agitate, trick and deceive your way into power. It's a path that radical leftist Barack Obama has followed to the letter. <BR> <BR>This book needs to be read by all Americans. When anti-American leftists like Alinsky, Obama, Ayres or Wright use tactics described in this book, patriotic Americans need to recognize and defeat them. In the spirit of "know your enemy", I give this book "5 stars". Rules for Radicals needs to be read by every informed voter.<!-/quote-!><hr size=0></blockquote> <BR> <BR><a href="http://www.amazon.com/review/product/0394717368/ref=cm_cr_dp_synop?%5Fencoding=UTF8&showViewpoints=0&sortBy=bySubmissionDateDescending#R2NA81LHPF65DR" target=_top>http://www.amazon.com/review/product/0394717368/re f=cm_cr_dp_synop?%5Fencoding=UTF8&showViewpoints=0 &sortBy=bySubmissionDateDescending#R2NA81LHPF65DR</a>

<b><font color="0000ff">It outlines steps and actions that must be taken in order to lie, organize, agitate, trick and deceive your way into power.</font></b> <BR> <BR>Hmmm. It seems to me that most, if not all, politicians have their "tricks" of the trade. We Canadians will be watching for the "communist" take over being planned by Obama from our safe vantage point north of the border. lol <BR> <BR>I guess Americans aren't used to avowed socialists being part of their political spectrum. Here in Canada, we have the NDP. The sky hasn't fallen nor have the communists taken over. Though many Canadians vacation in Cuba. <IMG SRC="http://www.atomorrow.net/discus/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":-)" BORDER=0> <BR><font color="ffffff"><font size="-2">.</font></font>

The motives of such books should be condemned as should the words of Rev Jeremiah Wright, but instead Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama have built their "kingdoms" from its reasoning. <BR> <BR>Not all looking on to the Canadian Socialist experiment are impressed, the lines to get surgery. They appear to have cheaper pharmaceuticals but how long before R&D funds run out and you guys are looking south for drugs to cure??

"By their fruit you will know them." <BR> <BR>Want to try a prediction as to what America will be like in three or four years? <BR><font color="ffffff"><font size="-2">.</font></font>

One prediction, Obama's approval ratings that have slipped from 86 to 68 will probably be about like George Bush's, mid 30's when he faces reelection. The Dems on the Hill are already fussing about his style. <BR> <BR>If he takes this country into Socialism, their will be discontent. He will have proven what Ailensky wrote and taught him, his object was to take wealth from one and give, maybe, to another undeserving of it. <BR> <BR>Remember Christ's parable about the unfaithful servant that hid his "talent" in the ground, only to be rebuked by the master???
