[Marxism] No Need to March, Says Obama Advisor

[Charlie <charles1848@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

That's the headline on a report by Hazel Trice Edney, editor in chief of 
the National Newspaper Publishers Association press syndicate. She leads:

"Valerie Jarrett, who will likely become a household name shortly ... 
says the landscape of activism may drastically change under the Obama 
administration as those who have traditionally fought to be heard will 
likely have seats at the table.
"'You do not need to have demonstrations in front of the White House to 
convince this president that there is a disparate impact in the 
African-American community around issues such as health care and 
education. He's got that,' says Jarrrett in a telephone interview..."

The California Voice, which bills itself as "The Oldest Black Newspaper 
West of the Rockies," gave the story top billing on the front page of 
its Dec. 28, 2008 issue. You voted, sisters and brothers, now let your 
leaders wait for their White House invitations!

Carl Davidson and other "progressives for Obama" can either go along 
with Obama's request not to pressure him, or they can admit that in the 
very act of demonstrating against more troops to Afghanistan, for 
economic relief to the common people not to the rich, and for an end to 
supporting Israeli oppression of Palestinians, they are going against Obama.
