I don’t know what to make of this, but it’s definitely interesting. Dr. John C. Drew says he knew President Obama back in the 80’s when they attended Occidental College together, and that young Barry was absolutely a Marxist.

Drew says he was a Marxist himself back then and founded the first and only Marxist organization at Occidental College. He recalls having spirited debates with Obama about Marxism and remembers him speaking fondly of the Soviet Union.

He says Obama felt very strongly that America was the enemy and the Soviet system was a much better model. Drew says Obama had a deeply held belief that the American system was rigged to keep people poor. He said the only way to right this injustice was through the redistribution of wealth.

Like I said, pretty interesting stuff. Dr. Drew says he grew out of his Marxist beliefs in the late 80’s and became a Republican. He does not believe Obama’s views have changed much since that time.

Here’s a brief interview with Dr. John C. Drew discussing what Obama was like back then:
