In an article in People's World, Sam Webb, national leader of the Communist Party USA has endorsed Comrade Obama and the Democrat Party, calling the 2012 election "of consequence to class and democratic struggles."
We extend our congratulations to the troika of Obama, Pelosi, Reid and their collaborators; we know how hard they have worked for this endorsement -- in imposing socialized medicine against the will of the proletariat, in their tireless efforts to bankrupt and destroy America's capitalist system, in their confiscation and redistribution of the wealth, in moving the masses to greater and greater dependency on the state. Indeed, this endorsement is earned and deserved.
Does It Matter Which Party Wins?
By Sam Webb, Chairperson, Communist Party USA
It is obvious that there is a growing feeling of frustration and even anger among supporters of the Democratic Party with its performance over the past two years.
AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka, speaking for the labor movement, strongly expressed this unhappiness in some recent speeches.
But I don't forget that this administration governs in a very hostile political environment in which the right is laboring overtime to wreck its initiatives at every step of the way.
