If conservatives can be proud of the heritage of Southern slave owners who lynched black people from trees, then the communism thing is probably a lesser offense in comparison. And if they can claim that they are not tainted by the racist actions of their genetic predecessors, then surely Valerie can claim that she should not be painted with the same communist brush.
Don't you mean the heritage of Southern Democrat slave owners, of KKK and Jim Crow Law fame?

'Something' - Communist infiltration of the American Education System and American Media since the 1920's, contributing to your ignorance and denial regarding international communism.

Many people of color especially were members of the communist party or communist sympathizers. This is common knowledge.

In regards to her being on the board of committees that funded housing slums, unfortunately things like that happen all the time with non-profits and CDCs who don't know what the heck they are doing when they get government money for affordable housing.

FWIW, because of the industry I work in, I have met her and I know many people who are very good friends with Valerie Jarrett. Nothing in the OP link is unknown information about her and in regards to her family and her husband's family's political activities in the past, those are not relevant to her or her position with the president.

Find me some real, unknown dirt so I can be shocked and outraged.
These things are known to you and they were known to some voters. This is information that most voters never heard or didn't believe, simply because the MSM held back reporting on it, even though it was true. Voters should have had the opportunity to decide if it was relevant or not to her position and the election of president. It's called 'vetting.'

So this is why this is still new info, and up for deliberation, for some folks.

Certainly V. Jarrett's father-in-law's relationship with Frank Marshall Davis (known as Pres. BHO's mentor as a teen and a card-carrying Communist) was worth pondering.

What's the big deal?
The big deal is when they have power. Forcing you to buy insurance is the least of what they will force you to do. Even in the land of the free.

EXCELLENT Question -
German Fascism was branch of communism known as Nazi Fascism = Nationalistic Fascism…no one but Germans allowed. Fascism is an economic distinction within Communism, meaning the State actually controls 'private' corporations.

Hitler's group was always in competition with other German Communist organizations for followers, before and after he gained power. Of course, after gaining power, Hitler systematically manipulated circumstances to wipe competing political groups out of existence.

How many loved the writings of Mao? Annita Dunn?

It was one Communist exposed in the administration after another for the first 3 years Obama was in office. They were all made to step down, except Val.

Just imagine if she had a Rebel flag-it would get far more attention the fact that she's a communist. The Donnie Rumsfield of this administration. When Valerie is the brains behind the administration you know they are scraping the bottom of the barrel.
