New documents shed new light on his ties to a leftist party in the 1990s.<\/h2>\n

By\u00a0Stanley Kurtz<\/p>\n

On the evening of January 11, 1996, while Mitt Romney was in the final years of his run as the head of Bain Capital<\/span><\/a>, Barack Obama formally joined the New Party, which was deeply hostile to the mainstream of the Democratic party and even to American capitalism. In 2008, candidate Obama deceived the American public about his potentially damaging tie to this third party. The issue remains as fresh as today\u2019s headlines, as Romney argues that Obama is trying to move the United States toward European-style social democracy, which was precisely the New Party\u2019s goal.<\/p>\n

In late October 2008, when I wrote<\/a> here at National Review Online that Obama had been a member of the New Party, his campaign sharply denied it, calling my claim a \u201ccrackpot smear<\/a>.\u201d Fight the Smears, an official Obama-campaign website, staunchly maintained that \u201cBarack has been a member of only one political party, the Democratic Party.\u201d I rebutted<\/a> this, but the debate was never taken up by the mainstream press.<\/p>\n

Recently obtained evidence from the updated records of Illinois ACORN at the Wisconsin Historical Society now definitively establishes that Obama was a member of the New Party. He also signed a \u201ccontract\u201d promising to publicly support and associate himself with the New Party while in office.<\/p>\n

Minutes of the meeting on January 11, 1996, of the New Party\u2019s Chicago chapter read as follows:<\/p>\n

Barack Obama, candidate for State Senate in the 13th Legislative District, gave a statement to the membership and answered questions. He signed the New Party \u201cCandidate Contract\u201d and requested an endorsement from the New Party. He also joined the New Party.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Consistent with this, a roster of the Chicago chapter of the New Party from early 1997 lists Obama as a member, with January 11, 1996, indicated as the date he joined.<\/p>\n

Knowing that Obama disguised his New Party membership helps make sense of his questionable handling of the 2008 controversy over his ties to ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now). During his third debate with John McCain, Obama said that the \u201conly\u201d involvement he\u2019d had with ACORN was to represent the group in a lawsuit seeking to compel Illinois to implement the National Voter Registration<\/span><\/a> Act, or motor-voter law. The records of Illinois ACORN and its associated union clearly contradict that assertion, as I show in my political biography of the president, Radical-in-Chief: Barack Obama and the Untold Story of American Socialism<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Why did Obama deny his ties to ACORN? The group was notorious in 2008 for thug tactics, fraudulent voter registrations, and its role in popularizing risky subprime lending. Admitting that he had helped to fund ACORN\u2019s voter-registration efforts and train some of their organizers would doubtless have been an embarrassment but not likely a crippling blow to his campaign. So why not simply confess the tie and make light of it? The problem for Obama was ACORN\u2019s political arm, the New Party.<\/p>\n

The revelation in 2008 that Obama had joined an ACORN-controlled, leftist third party could have been damaging indeed, and coming clean about his broader work with ACORN might easily have exposed these New Party ties. Because the work of ACORN and the New Party often intersected with Obama\u2019s other alliances, honesty about his ties to either could have laid bare the entire network of his leftist political partnerships.<\/p>\n

Although Obama is ultimately responsible for deceiving the American people in 2008 about his political background, he got help from his old associates. Each of the two former political allies who helped him to deny his New Party membership during campaign \u201908 was in a position to know better.<\/p>\n

The Fight the Smears website quoted Carol Harwell, who managed Obama\u2019s 1996 campaign for the Illinois senate: \u201cBarack did not solicit or seek the New Party endorsement for state senator in 1995.\u201d Drawing on her testimony, Fight the Smears conceded that the New Party did support Obama<\/span><\/a> in 1996 but denied that Obama had ever joined, adding that \u201che was the only candidate on the ballot in his race and never solicited the endorsement.\u201d<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve seen that this is false. Obama formally requested New Party endorsement, signed the candidate contract, and joined the party. Is it conceivable that Obama\u2019s own campaign manager could have been unaware of this? The notion is implausible. And the documents make Harwell\u2019s assertion more remarkable still.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Obama crossing off Bill of Rights<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The New Party had a front group called Progressive Chicago, whose job was to identify candidates that the New Party and its sympathizers might support. Nearly four years before Obama was endorsed by the New Party, both he and Harwell joined Progressive Chicago and began signing public letters that regularly reported on the group\u2019s meetings. By prominently taking part in Progressive Chicago activities, Obama was effectively soliciting New Party support for his future political career (as was Harwell, on Obama\u2019s behalf). So Harwell\u2019s testimony is doubly false.<\/p>\n

When the New Party controversy broke out, just about the only mainstream journalist to cover<\/a> it was Politico<\/em>\u2019s Ben Smith, whose evident purpose was to dismiss it out of hand. He contacted Obama\u2019s official spokesman Ben LaBolt, who claimed that his candidate \u201cwas never a member\u201d of the New Party. And New Party co-founder and leader Joel Rogers told Smith, \u201cWe didn\u2019t really have members.\u201d But a line in the New Party\u2019s official newsletter explicitly identified Obama as a party member. Rogers dismissed that as mere reference to \u201cthe fact that the party had endorsed him.\u201d<\/p>\n

This is nonsense. I exposed the falsity of Rogers\u2019s absurd claim, and Smith\u2019s credulity in accepting it, in 2008 (here<\/a> and here<\/a>). And in Radical-in-Chief<\/em> I took on Rogers\u2019s continuing attempts to justify it. The recently uncovered New Party records reveal how dramatically far from the truth Rogers\u2019s statement has been all along.<\/p>\n

In a memo dated January 29, 1996, Rogers, writing as head of the New Party Interim Executive Council, addressed \u201cstanding concerns regarding existing chapter development and activity, the need for visibility as well as new members.\u201d So less than three weeks after Obama joined the New Party, Rogers was fretting about the need for new members. How, then, could Rogers assert in 2008 that his party \u201cdidn\u2019t really have members\u201d? Internal documents show that the entire leadership of the New Party, both nationally and in Chicago, was practically obsessed with signing up new members, from its founding moments until it dissolved in the late 1990s.<\/p>\n

In 2008, after I called Rogers out on his ridiculous claim that his party had no members, he explained to Ben Smith that \u201cwe did have regular supporters whom many called \u2018members,\u2019 but it just meant contributing regularly, not getting voting rights or other formal power in NP governance.\u201d This is also flatly contradicted by the newly uncovered records.<\/p>\n

At just about the time Obama joined the New Party, the Chicago chapter was embroiled in a bitter internal dispute. A party-membership list is attached to a memo in which the leaders of one faction consider a <\/a>scheme to disqualify potential voting members from a competing faction, on the grounds that those voters had not renewed their memberships. The factional leaders worried that their opponents would legitimately object to this tactic, since a mailing that called for members to renew hadn\u2019t been properly sent out. At any rate, the memo clearly demonstrates that, contrary to Rogers\u2019s explanation, membership in the New Party entailed the right to vote on matters of party governance. In fact, Obama\u2019s own New Party endorsement, being controversial, was thrown open to a members\u2019 vote on the day he joined the party.<\/p>\n

Were Harwell and Rogers deliberately lying in order to protect Obama and deceive the public? Readers can decide for themselves. Yet it is clear that Obama, through his official spokesman, Ben LaBolt, and the Fight the Smears website, was bent on deceiving the American public about a matter whose truth he well knew.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Obama the Marxist Communist<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The documents reveal that the New Party\u2019s central aim was to move the United States steadily closer to European social democracy, a goal that Mitt Romney<\/span><\/a> has also attributed to Obama. New Party leaders disdained mainstream Democrats, considering them tools of business, and promised instead to create a partnership between elected officials<\/span><\/a> and local community organizations, with the goal of socializing the American economy to an unprecedented degree.<\/p>\n

The party\u2019s official \u201cstatement of principles,\u201d which candidates seeking endorsement from the Chicago chapter were asked to support, called for a \u201cpeaceful revolution\u201d and included redistributive proposals substantially to the left of the Democratic party.<\/p>\n

To get a sense of the ideology at play, consider that the meeting at which Obama joined the party opened with the announcement of a forthcoming event featuring the prominent socialist activist Frances Fox Piven. The Chicago New Party sponsored a luncheon with Michael Moore that same year.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Obama-commie-nomics!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I have more to say on the New Party\u2019s ideology and program, Obama\u2019s ties to the party, and the relevance of all this to the president\u2019s campaign for reelection. See the forthcoming issue of National Review.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, let us see whether a press that let candidate Obama off the hook in 2008 \u2014 and that in 2012 is obsessed with the president\u2019s youthful love letters\u00a0 \u2014 will now refuse to report that President Obama once joined a leftist third party, and that he hid that truth from the American people in order to win the presidency.<\/p>\n

He continued that God wasn't important, wasn't real, and our parents just used God to impose restrictions on us because they were inadequate to parent effectively. I knew then I was going to be involved in a war and that I would have to be in Jesus Christ's Army. Even then, I knew the United States of America would cease to exist without the vast majority of its citizens voluntarily submitting to the Perfect and Good Laws of the Holy Bible. I am a woman who loves the Lord Jesus Christ. I am tired of seeing our LORD denigrated from the school house to the White House. I search the Internet for items that ought to serve as a warning to Americans and Christians all through America, but the nation seems to be sleeping. Wake up America! You are losing your freedoms, your children and your country. Wake up and help stop it!","url":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/watchwomanonthewall\/author\/dcalvin"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/watchwomanonthewall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15973","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/watchwomanonthewall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/watchwomanonthewall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/watchwomanonthewall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/403"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/watchwomanonthewall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15973"}],"version-history":[{"count":16,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/watchwomanonthewall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15973\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20259,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/watchwomanonthewall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15973\/revisions\/20259"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/watchwomanonthewall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15973"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/watchwomanonthewall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15973"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/watchwomanonthewall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15973"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
