The 'change' Obama brings
"To understand Obama's values and see the kind of change he brings, we need to examine the organization whose leaders he trained as a community organizer. ACORN deliberately avoids the national spotlight when possible, opting instead to work at the local and state levels. Their strategy is to infiltrate government, rather than to overthrow it. ACORN and Democratic Socialists of America formed an alliance to create the New Party to pursue this goal. Obama's entrance into politics in 1996 was simply the next logical step after his years as a community organizer."
