Cass Sunstein: BO's Regulatory Czar calls for redistribution of wealth and socialism in the US

Cass Sunstein is B.O.'s appointed Administrator of the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs.

Sunstein authored a book in 2004 called "The Second Bill of Rights: FDR's Unfinished Revolution and Why We Need It More than Ever" I've read some sections of the book (online link below). He points to FDR's proposals for a second bill of rights, points out the relationship between the proposal and socialism and communism, expresses regret that America is overly sensitive to adopting socialist policies, and speaks of using the court system and other means as tools for bringing about these policies that he clearly identifies as socialist and to an extent communist. I can't quote the whole book...and to do so would be out of context, but you can read large sections of it via the link below.

Sunstein co-authored an article called "Climate Change Justice" he calls for laws that would force distribution of wealth/cash from the U.S. to poorer nations:
"Reductions in greenhouse gas emissions would cost some nations much more than others and benefit some nations far less than others. Significant reductions would likely impose especially large costs on the United States, and recent projections suggest that the United States is not among the nations most at risk from climate change....On reasonable assumptions, redistribution from the United States to poor people in poor nations would be highly desirable, but expenditures on greenhouse gas reductions are a crude means of producing that redistribution: It would be much better to give cash payments directly to people who are now poor....This claim has general implications for thinking about both distributive justice and corrective justice arguments in the context of international law and international agreements."

Van Jones: BO's Green Jobs Czar and his affiliation with Communist groups

Van Jones was appointed by BO as the Green Jobs czar on the White House Council on Environmental Quality.

Van Jones was a leading member of STORM (Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement).

STORM was a left-wing revolutionary organization based on openly communist, Marxist, and Maoist principles and revolutionary practices. Several of STORMS's leaders had pre-existing relationships with self-described Communist organizations. From a self summary of STORM, they write: "We did have a political commitment to the fundamental ideas of Marxism-Leninism. We upheld the Marxist critique of capitalist exploitation. We agreed with Lenin’s analysis of the state and the party. And we found inspiration and guidance in the insurgent revolutionary strategies developed by Third World revolutionaries like Mao Tse-tung and Amilcar Cabral." "All of STORM’s members developed a basic understanding of and commitment to revolutionary Marxist politics with a particular emphasis on the historical experiences of Third World communist movements."

Jones has been quoted about his time in jail, he said, "I met all these young radical people of color -- I mean really radical, communists and anarchists. And it was, like, 'This is what I need to be a part of." " I spent the next ten years of my life working with a lot of those people I met in jail, trying to be a revolutionary." "I was a rowdy nationalist on April 28th, and then the verdicts came down on April 29th," he said. "By August, I was a communist."

Ron Bloom: BO's Manufacturing Czar Debunking Commerce Freedom and Agreeing with Mao

Ron Bloom is BO appointed Manufacturing Czar:

Quote from Ron Bloom debunking freedom of commerce and agreeing with Communist Mao:
"Generally speaking we get the joke. We know that the free market is nonsense. We know that the whole point is to game the system, to beat the market, or at least find someone who will pay you a lot of money because they're convinced that there is a free lunch. We know this is largely about power, that it's an adults only, no limit game. We kind of agree with Mao that political power comes largely from the barrel of a gun. And we get it that if you want a friend, you should get a dog."

Mark Llloyd: BO appointed FCC officer revering socialists Hugo Chavez and Saul Alinsky

Mark Lloyd was appointed by BO as Chief Diversity Officer at the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in July 2009.

Mark Lloyd's quote admiring socialist Hugo Chavez:
"In Venezuela, with Chavez, is really an incredible revolution - a democratic revolution. To begin to put in place things that are going to have an impact on the people of Venezuela. "The property owners and the folks who then controlled the media in Venezuela rebelled - worked, frankly, with folks here in the U.S. government - worked to oust him. But he came back with another revolution, and then Chavez began to take very seriously the media in his country. "

Mark Lloyd's quote on inspiration and guidance from socialist Saul Alinsky:
"Too often Americans use the First Amendment to end discussions of communications policy." He continued, "This freedom is all too often an exaggeration. At the very least, blind references to freedom of speech or the press serve as a distraction from the critical examination of communications policies." “We looked to successful political campaigns and organizers as a guide, especially the civil rights movement, Saul Alinsky, and the campaign to prevent the Supreme Court nomination of the ultra-conservative jurist Robert Bork,” “From those sources we drew inspiration and guidance.”

Anita Dunn: BO Comm Director on Mao and Medial Control

Anita Dunn is BO's Communications Director.

Below are just two quotes and video provided as proof and for context.

Anita Dunn's quote on Mao:
"The third lesson and tip actually comes from two of my favorite political philosophers - Mao Tse Tung and Mother Teresa, not often coupled with each other but the two people that I turn to most to basically deliver a simple point, which is you're going to make choices."

Anita Dunn's quote on controlling the media:
"Very rarely did we communicate through the press anything that we didn't absolutely control." "One of the reasons we did so many of the David Plouffe videos was not just for our supporters, but also because it was a way for us to get our message out without having to actually talk to reporters." "We just put that out there and made them write what Plouffe had said as opposed to Plouffe doing an interview with a reporter. So it was very much we controlled it as opposed to the press controlled it." "Whether it was a David Plouffe video or an Obama speech, a huge part of our press strategy was focused on making the media cover what Obama was actually saying as opposed to why the campaign was saying it, what the tactic was. … Making the press cover what we were saying."
