I left off, in a previous article, with the exploration of one man named Cass Sunstein whom has some of the most weird and strange ideology of all Obama’s appointees. This man has made several statements that as a man whom sits near the President of the United States would not even be allowed to speak much less sit at the same table with the President. His ideology comes from a deep mind set that the United States and the world need to stop doing what they are doing and they should listen to him, Cass Sunstein, his ideas are above all of them. We saw in the last post what Cass Sunstein thought about socialist nations, if you forgot see below.
Sunstein depicts socialist nations as being more committed than their capitalist counterparts to the welfare of their own citizens:
“During the Cold War, the debate about [social welfare] guarantees took the form of pervasive disagreement between the United States and its communist adversaries. Americans emphasized the importance of civil and political liberties, above all free speech and freedom of religion, while communist nations stressed the right to a job, health care, and a social minimum.”
Does this mean that Cass Sunstein has the belief that all of our liberties should not be allowed? Does he maintain this belief that as a people, we should want the government to do all for us? Once again so many questions, so few answers. Obama has shown a small pamphlet about giving jobs to the United States yet if one looks at it, they do not see any difference from his first 4 years and what he would do if he won this election, and heaven forbid that! With an individual such as Cass Sunstein helping develop your ideology for the United States, one would believe that maybe the Communists have won and our freedom has lost.

We have to look at those whom surround Obama to see that his agenda does not include the middle class, nor does it include the poor. It does, however, include just those he wishes to include, the elite. The elite are those who think like him or maybe those who direct him and lead him so he can speak what they think and it comes from the President rather than from an individual whom has radical ideas about nearly everything. This comes from some of Cass Sunstein’s statements, such as the following cited below.
In 2007 Sunstein co-authored (with fellow attorney Eric A. Posner) a 39-page University of Chicago Law School paper titled “Climate Change Justice,” which held that it was “desirable” for America to pay “justice” to poorer nations by entering into a compensation agreement that would result in a financial loss for the United States. The paper refers several times to “distributive justice.”
Sunstein and Posner further speculate about the possibility of achieving this redistribution by means other than direct payments:
- “It is even possible that desirable redistribution is more likely to occur through climate change policy than otherwise, or to be accomplished more effectively through climate policy than through direct foreign aid.”
- “We agree that if the United States does spend a great deal on emissions reductions as part of an international agreement, and if the agreement does give particular help to disadvantaged people, considerations of distributive justice support its action, even if better redistributive mechanisms are imaginable.”
- “If the United States agrees to participate in a climate change agreement on terms that are not in the nation’s interest, but that help the world as a whole, there would be no reason for complaint, certainly if such participation is more helpful to poor nations than conventional foreign-aid alternatives.”
“If we care about social welfare, we should approve of a situation in which a wealthy nation is willing to engage in a degree of self-sacrifice when the world benefits more than that nation loses.”
Wow! A two-part scheme, using the very fraudulent climate change ideology where the climate is changed by the use of coal, natural gas and oil and no other source of fuel. This is the largest lie ever told by anyone and several scientists, rather, thousands of scientists have now stated that climate change is a natural process and the earth goes through periodic swings of hot and cold so no one has any proof that climate change is contributed to by humans using oil, natural gas or coal. Here is where it seems that Obama and Cass Sunstein have melded together for the same ideology of “spreading the wealth,” much like Obama had subscribed to while he was at Occidental College learning how to do just this from none other than Karl Marx and his ideology of “spreading the wealth,” which by the way has never worked.
Redistribute the wealth. Did Obama get this from Cass Sunstein, or did Cass Sunstein convince Obama this is what is needed? Maybe this has been Obama’s plan since his time with the Marxist group at Occidental College. Maybe Cass Sunstein is just a way to get his ideas done using Sunstein as the scape goat should anything happen. Or maybe, this is just what Obama truly wishes to be done and he now has a chance to continue his destruction of the “evil’ United States.
How do you like the Cass Sunstein ideology?
“If we care about social welfare, we should approve of a situation in which a wealthy nation is willing to engage in a degree of self-sacrifice when the world benefits more than that nation loses.”
Social welfare, is this what Obama has talked about for so very long? Is Obama calling the shots on social welfare or Cass Sunstein? Just who is in charge here? Is it Valerie Jarrett, David Axelrod, Cass Sunstein, or Barack Husein Obama? Could it be that the reason that Obama is so out of touch with reality is because he does not really know what is going on or maybe because he has Sunstein to direct the ways things go?
“In their 2008 book Nudge: Improving Decisions About Health, Wealth, and Happiness, Sunstein and co-author Richard Thaler brainstorm about ways to increase the number of organ donations that Americans make each year. They theorize that the main reason why more people do not arrange to donate their organs posthumously is because in order to do so, they are required to actively give “explicit consent” for such procedures, which few people ever take the time to do. To remedy this, Sunstein and Thaler advocate a policy of “presumed consent” — the opposite of explicit consent — whereby the the government would “presume” that someone has consented to having his or her organs removed for transplantation unless that person has explicitly indicated his or her wish to prevent such an action.”
What? A “presumed” consent? Cass Sunstein has gone off the ranch with this as he shows that, with his ideology, one does not have a choice of what happens to their organs after they die because Cass Sunstein, says so! This is what President Obama has on his staff! What else does this weird man think? It will astound you and hopefully make you realize that 4 more years of Obama may well be the end to a free United States, as we know it. It may well also represent a new way to have elections and Obama will then be dictator of the new United Socialist States of America. When you read the rest of what Cass Sunstein wants, you will see many of what he says being done or trying to be done by President Obama now. According to Sunstein, one does not shove or push people into thinking of different ideologies, instead they are “nudged” into thinking as their leaders “nudge” them. An example is Obama “nudging” the abolishment of coal by much more stringent controls thus making it harder to get license to dig or use coal. Thus he has “nudged” people into thinking coal is not feasible, while in reality it is perhaps the best use of our nations natural resources.
But it does not stop here. How about using the “nudge” to force people to use electric cars by forcing oil prices higher than ever before? Yes, that is as of this minute being done since it has been duly noted that the United States has more oil than the entire world has on hand! In just three states, Utah, Colorado, and Wyoming, lie some 3 trillion barrels of oil and Obama knows this yet has stopped the drilling and thus has “nudged” the people of the United States to use much more expensive alternative power sources!! As examples of how Sunstein has helped Obama push people into thinking of alternative energy, one just has to look at wind power in California where millions of birds, some are protected species, being killed each year by wind mills that produce only a quarter of oil, natural gas and coal! It takes 660 windmills to produce the same amount of power as just 1 natural gas fired generator plant. This plant runs 24/7 and does not kill millions of birds. But Cass Sunstein has had President Obama “nudge” everyone into believing that wind and solar power are the things of the future. Both, by the way, cannot compare with any oil, coal, or natural gas fired generator plants. This is a matter of fact, not fiction!
Now read what is below and see if it applies to what is being done today.
“Sunstein and Thaler realize, however, that such a proposal “is a hard sell politically” because “[m]ore than a few people object to the idea of ‘presuming’ anything when it comes to such a sensitive matter.” Thus the authors propose an alternate solution — “mandated choice” — where the government forces all people to make a decision on the matter:
“With mandated choice, renewal of your driver’s license would be accompanied by a requirement that you check a box stating your organ donation preferences. Your application would not be accepted unless you had checked one of the boxes.”
What? Don’t we do this today? Sunstein has already done this and he is close to President Obama, what else does he have in mind? Let us explore that!
“In 2008, Sunstein said the following about why he favored the establishment of a government that could “nudge” people’s behavior in certain desired directions:
- “The nanny state … in a way is underrated, so long as there aren’t mandates.”
- “We [Sunstein and Thaler] think that there’s a little Homer Simpson in all of us; that sometimes we have self-control problems; sometimes we’re impulsive; and that in these circumstances, both private and public institutions, without coercing, can make our lives a lot better.”
- “Once we know that people are human and there’s some Homer Simpson in them, then there’s a lot that can be done to manipulate them.”
Does any of this sound familiar? It should, since the entire Obamacare Health system is very much like what these men were saying back during Obama’s run for election. Just for information purposes, below is why Cass Sun stein knew Senator Obama before he became famous.
“On July 4, 2008, Sunstein married his second wife, Harvard professor Samantha Power, whom he had met when they both worked as advisors to the presidential campaign of Sunstein’s longtime friend and former University of Chicago Law School colleague, Barack Obama.”
Friendship of people with like, Marxist minds are very hard to break! Fox News adds:
“Also in 2008, Sunstein authored a paper proposing that the government use a variety of methods to limit or eliminate conspiracy theories critical of the U.S. government. These methods suggested that the government could:
- ban conspiracy theories outright
- impose a tax on those who advance conspiracy theories
- engage in counter-speech to “discredit conspiracy theories and theorists”
- hire private parties to engage in counter-speech
- engage in informal communication with such private parties, encouraging them to help
Added Sunstein: “Our main policy claim here is the government should engage in cognitive infiltration of the groups that produce conspiracy theories.”
It appears like Cass Sunstein is advocating the removal of the people’s First Amendment Rights of Free Speech. Does Obama wish for this to happen? Obama has stated several times that he has this, “Thing called the Constitution that keeps getting in my way of doing things.” Is President Obama doing just what Cass Sunstein proposed? Is President Obama going to change the way the United States is? Obama is a puppet run by many masters who have socialist, Marxist, or communist ideology running through their veins and hope that with this election they can install Obama as the first dictator of the old United States.
In 2008 Sunstein served as an advisor for Barack Obama’s presidential campaign. After Obama’s 2009 inauguration, Sunstein was appointed to head the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs.
In early August 2012, Sunstein announced that he would be leaving his administration post later that month, in order to return to the faculty of Harvard Law School.
Sunstein is a contributing editor to The New Republic and The American Prospect and has frequently testified before congressional committees.
The American Prospect has been linked to several socialist/communist ideologies. One just has to look at what President Obama says and does to see that Cass Sunstein, his old friend from College, had placed into the Obama mind a way to “nudge” the United States into thinking like him on all of his socialistic ideologies. What is Obama hiding in his past? What is Obama planning for our nation? Is Obama using other people to obtain what he wants? Let’s not allow him to stay in office to find out.
