Thank you SO MUCH for opening my eyes from not being able to see what I should be paying close attention. I have watched this entire video twice, and it made me realise so much comparison between them.

@kruddykuffar Thank you so much for your post! You are absolute PROOF as to how ignorant liberals are of anything that concerns politics. Never heard of Saul Alinsky???!??! Wow. It's people like you who should just not even bother voting. Liberals don't know anything of politics. Thank you so much for making our point!

@mcv47 The mainstream media's job is to sell advertising. To whom? To people who own things. In what way does truth play an automatic role in advancing their interests? The "mainstream media" is property, and nothing else.

@kruddykuffar Wright is a black theocrackpot, but look at all those white evangelical and fundy scumbags the right uses. They act like their platform and the Gospels are the same, as if Jesus was campaigning for gun rights or tax cuts.

This is a load of nonsense, For instance, what political figure or party of the slightest popularity is advocating for Eugenics? As well, as before 1900s, there were no laws against abortion.

Good summary. it's AMAZING to see how Republicans have adopted Alinsky's tactics while Dems seem to have forgotten them. you're a dupe if you don't think the Tea Party is a fixated group of discontents who project discontent on Obama.

The means end up being the end.

You right-wingers were screaming about Jeremiah Wright and Saul Alinsky all through the election of 2008. Everyone heard what you had to say then. The problem is that very few people believed these people are what you claim they are because you're wrong.

You failed in persuasion for a reason. Saul Alinsky is not a guru for the political left and has had no influence or impact on American politics. It's a lie, and now you're paying for it. Boo hoo!

@kruddykuffar Perhaps if the main stream media would have done their job, more people would have heard the truth. Shame about that - we're paying for it now.

@kruddykuffar Don't get out much do you?

This video is way-out wacky-weird in how it goes on-and-on about Saul Alinsky, a nobody no one's ever really heard of before. He has had no influence, or next-to-no influence on the Democratic Party. I registered at 18 in 1978, and I never heard of him before the election of 2008 when conservatives were digging around for dirt on Hillary Clinton. She wrote an essay on him. So what? He's not at all what you say, and any of the nefarious tactics you attribute to him, Karl Rove did too.
