As the little girl in the movie “Poltergeist” declared, “They’re baaaack.” This time, however, it is not evil ghosts reappearing to make us shiver, but real-life leftists transforming their mid-20th century social movement centered on college campuses and anti-war rhetoric, to one far more subtle and multi-pronged. Hillary Clinton’s college mentor, socialist Saul Alinsky, the Rasputin behind that 1960s movement, drafted the roadmap for the radical left to achieve its transformational goal of socializing America. They fell short of their goal, but only with regard to the timeline. Now, in this early 21st century, Alinsky’s manifesto is being updated and expanded; and one of its prime implementers may surprise you.
The nonprofit community, long a meeting place for far-left sympathizers and Democrat do-gooders, now is in the vanguard of defining and implementing what Alinsky defined more than four decades ago as “Rules for Radicals.”
