Imagine an American man so devout in his Communist beliefs, that during
the Cold War the FBI placed him on its security index – meaning that if
an armed conflict were to have erupted between the U.S. and the Soviet
Union, Federal authorities would have looked to him as a prime suspect
for treason.
Now imagine that man mentored the leader of the free world.
On July 17th, Mercury Ink and author Paul Kengor, PhD, will introduce the world to the real Frank Marshall Davis
– the card-carrying member of the Communist Party U.S.A, and who all
accounts indicate was Barack Obama’s closest role model and mentor.
Devoid of outrageous conspiracy theories or sensational claims, Kengor
painstakingly documents the historical facts of this dynamic, at times
even sympathetic character, who walked the path from Republican roots
clear through to the radical fringe of unfettered Marxism.
Presently, certain news and commentary outlets are focusing on the
more outrageous aspects of Frank Marshall Davis’ life, such as his
self-admitted penchant for perverse sexual escapades as well as for
taking photos of naked women (including of Stanley Ann Dunham, Obama’s
mother). In fact, the recently released documentary, “Dreams From My
Real Father,” even posits that Davis is the president’s true biological
father. While much of Davis’ bizarre fetishes and sexual peccadilloes
provide subject matter worthy of consideration, Kengor believes that his
book, “The Communist,” focuses on the substantive ideological, rather than sensational aspects of Davis’ past.
At the end of the day, according to Kengor, mentors matter – and in
no small amount. The book opens by explaining how Ronald Reagan and
Hillary Clinton’s role models were extremely influential in each of
their lives, respectively. In fact, typically the first task of any
biographer is to examine the mentors of the subject he or she is writing
about. Oddly, when it comes to our current president, left-wing
biographers have somehow avoided this topic altogether.
