Socialist has nothing in common with Obama
Jul. 29, 2010 5:50 pm
Much ink, commentary and even billboard space recently has been devoted to the question of whether President Obama is a socialist.
Here is a take from David Rosenfeld, Social Workers Party candidate for governor in Iowa:
“I think Obama is a socialist of a certain type. You could call him a capitalist socialist, one that is putting forward certain social reforms, but in order to defend the interests of the capitalist system, in order to convince working people that they have a stake in it. But we don't have a stake in it. We're a socialist of an entirely different type. We're of the working-class socialists, the revolutionary socialists and we have really nothing in common with Obama and with people of his ilk.”
