Bill Ayers and his wife, Bernardine Dohrn, hosted a gathering at their home in 1995, where Alice Palmer introduced Obama as her chosen successor in the Illinois State Senate.

In 1969. Bill and his wife had founded The Weather Underground (a far-left Marxist militant organization) whose express political goal was to create a revolutionary party to overthrow the United States government. They were a part of Students For A Democratic Society and affiliated with the Black Liberation Army. Their ideology was anti-capitalism/communism.

On March 1, 1971, they bombed the Capitol. May 29, 1972 they bombed the Pentagon. January 29, 1975 they bombed the US Dept of State building. They were anti-police and In 1969 they blew up a statue in Chicago commemorating fallen officers which was rebuilt and blown up three times by Weather Underground.

During the 2008 presidential election, investigations by CNN, The New York Times and other news organizations concluded that Obama did not have a close relationship with Ayers.

They also protested the Vietnam War as did John Kerry but I found no connection to him.

Comments should be interesting!
