Well I can't say it definitely defines him as a socialist but it sure is suspect that the president of the United States has books on Socialism in the WH library.



But in context, it becomes increasingly convincing:

Remember that Mao Zedung Christmas ornament?



Remember Anita Dun, Obama's inner circle and her praise of Mao, saying Chairman Mao is her favorite political philosopher?

What about Carol Browner, the climate czarina and self professed socialist, another part of Obama's inner circle.



Another admitted inner circle socialist, Phil Jones, errr mean Van Jones,

I met all these young radical people of color – I mean really radical: communists and anarchists. And it was, like, 'This is what I need to be a part of.' I spent the next ten years of my life working with a lot of those people I met in jail, trying to be a revolutionary," Jones said.

And Obama's New Party membership.



Collectively, these are not coincidences.

Your post will generate a big yawn on the part of the Left. After all a recent poll showed that most Dems think socialism is just peachy. No surprise, therefore, that they would choose as their standard bearer someone with those leanings.

Some "socialist" ideas are just peachy and have been in this country for a long time.

Since becomeing POTUS Obama has not pushed to make us a socialist country any more than any other President. Hence...::yawn::

Oh ****, he reads books! Sometimes from various view points!!!

BATTEN DOWN THE HATCHES WE GOT A TERRORIST IN OFFICE!

Sorry, not everyone lives in an echo chamber. Just because I've read Atlas Shrugged doesn't make me a libertarian that proclaims he's gonna go Galt.

In the White House, I would figure that EVERY President has as many books about ALL political philosophies in their library.
Oh, wait I'm sorry was that just too much common sense?

I'd prefer someone to run the country that can't read, as long as I can grab a beer with em.
