Well, ten months after I wrote this article, a light finally came on that explains Obama’s choice of the Lincoln Bible.

This ‘light’ was the realization that Barack Obama is, in fact, ‘a Progressive in a hurry’, or in less polite terms, a Marxist. See my article, ‘Why Obama is sacrificing House Democrats’.

What does Abraham Lincoln have to do with Marxism?

Well, consider this:

1. Karl Marx wrote a letter to Abraham Lincoln, congratulating him on his election as President of the United States.
2. American communists fighting in the Spanish Civil War in 1937, called themselves the ‘Abraham Lincoln Brigade’.
3. The figure of Abraham Lincoln has long been a worldwide cultural icon of socialists, Marxists, and communists.

Check out communist propaganda videos on youtube and you’ll find many references and images of Abraham Lincoln.

Frank Marshall Davis, Obama’s communist mentor as a teenager in Hawaii, had taught at the Abraham Lincoln School in Chicago, considered to be an adjunct of Communist Party USA.

The whole ‘Obama-Lincoln’ connection, the Lincoln Bible, the phony Disneyland version of the train trip to Washington, sent a clear signal to Marxists worldwide as to where Obama stood politically. At the same time, most Americans, ignorant of Marxist ideology, would fail to understand what was going on.

Things are beginning to fall into place.
