His Father didn't just READ A BOOK<(he wrote a whole article for the East African Journal on how socialism (if you read it, it's more communistic than socialist)
should work! His mother didn't teach a class on Marxism, as far as I know, but she attended classes and was close friends(Allegedly sexual) with Frank Marshall Davis, who lauded the Red army of Stalin during WW11, wanting them to kill allies!

Obama then got involved with community organizing

with Ayers

McCain says in an Internet ad that the two "ran a radical 'education' foundation" in Chicago. But the supposedly "radical" group was supported by a Republican governor and included on its board prominent local civic leaders, including one former Nixon administration official who has given $1,500 to McCain's campaign this year. Education Week says the group's work "reflected mainstream thinking" among school reformers. The group was the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, started by a $49 million grant from the Annenberg Foundation, which was established by the publisher Walter Annenberg, a prominent Republican whose widow, Leonore, is a contributor to the McCain campaign.

under the Marxist Alinsky's program.

From Alinsky's own mouth:

I could never accept any rigid dogma or ideology, whether it's Christianity or Marxism. One of the most important things in life is what Judge Learned Hand described as 'that ever-gnawing inner doubt as to whether you're right.' If you don't have that, if you think you've got an inside track to absolute truth, you become doctrinaire, humorless and intellectually constipated. The greatest crimes in history have been perpetrated by such religious and political and racial fanatics, from the persecutions of the Inquisition on down to Communist purges and Nazi genocide."

Just some things to consider.
