Communist Goals for American Takeover

Sometime ago, I wrote a post about the communist goals for taking over America. I laughed at the arrogance of the DSA members on the document, ( the minutes from a DSA National Convention in Chicago) I was reading. They were upset over the collapse of the old Soviet Union. It was absurd that the DSA or any communist really had the gall to think that they could actually overtake our Republic! But I did some more research anyway.

I found that America was constantly under attack, especially from within, by the threat of communists trying to destroy and takeover our Republic dating back as far as the late 1390’s. During that time I also found an article, the one below, that was read to the House of Representatives on January 10, 1963. The article, “Communist Goals for American Takeover,” by Mrs. Patricia Nordman, was read by Representative A.S. Herlong and committed to the Congressional Record.

As I re-read the article,  I was  saddened by my naïve thoughts at that time.  I won’t make the same mistake again! But, I was also saddened at the truth of  Mrs. Patricia Nordman’s report. We were warned. Congress was warned. We all scoffed. We were all so cocky, so complacent.

They talked about their goals. They talked about the role of the Progressive Caucus in the implementation of  their goals. They implemented the Ten Planks of the Communist Manifesto,an excerpt from “The Naked Communist,” by Cleon Skousen:[From “The Naked Communist,” by Cleon Skousen]. Read the planks. All we need to know is there.

We must regain control of our country before it is too late! Then we must never take our freedom for granted again. There are too many who would destroy it out of fear, greed, stupidity, apathy, and indifference. Don’t be one of those people!

Be vigilant. Speak out. Vote. Do all those things while you still can! Let us all work together and “take America back!”

Read and heed:

Communist Goals for American Takeover

Communist Goals (1963)
Congressional Record–Appendix, pp. A34-A35
January 10, 1963
Current Communist Goals
EXTENSION OF REMARKS OF HON. A. S. HERLONG, JR. OF FLORIDA IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Thursday, January 10, 1963
Mr. HERLONG. Mr. Speaker, Mrs. Patricia Nordman of De Land, Fla., is an ardent and articulate opponent of communism, and until recently published the De Land Courier, which she dedicated to the purpose of alerting the public to the dangers of communism in America.

At Mrs. Nordman’s request, I include in the RECORD, under unanimous consent, the following “Current Communist Goals,” which she identifies as an excerpt from “The Naked Communist,” by Cleon Skousen:[From “The Naked Communist,” by Cleon Skousen]

CURRENT COMMUNIST GOALS:
A M E R I C A

1. U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.

2. U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.
3. Develop the illusion that total disarmament [by] the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength.

4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.

5. Extension of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.

6. Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.

7. Grant recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the U.N.

8. Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev’s promise in 1955 to settle the German question by free elections under supervision of the U.N.

9. Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the United States has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress.

10. Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the U.N.

11. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces. (Some Communist leaders believe the world can be taken over as easily by the U.N. as by Moscow. Sometimes these two centers compete with each other as they are now doing in the Congo.)

12. Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.

13. Do away with all loyalty oaths.

14. Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office.

15. Capture one, or both, of the political parties in the United States.

16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.

17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers’ associations. Put the party line in textbooks.

18. Gain control of all student newspapers.

19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.

20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policymaking positions.

21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.

22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to “eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms.”

23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. “Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art.”

24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them “censorship” and a violation of free speech and free press.

25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.

26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural, healthy.”

27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity which does not need a “religious crutch.”

28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of “separation of church and state.”

29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.

30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the “common man.”

31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the “big picture.” Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.

32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture — education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etcetera.

33. Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.

34. Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.

35. Discredit, and eventually dismantle, the FBI.

36. Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.

37. Infiltrate and gain control of big business.

38. Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand [or treat].

39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.

40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.

41. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.

42. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use [“]united force[“] to solve economic, political or social problems.

43. Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.

44. Internationalize the Panama Canal.

45. Repeal the Connally reservation so the United States cannot prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction [over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction] over nations and individuals alike.

  1. Military Weapons…

    […]Communist Goals for American Takeover « Love it or Leave it!![…]…

  2. Freedom, by the way said

    This is an excellent post. Reading the current goals of the communism, they are well on their way. THIS is the list that should be in front of every high school student–to show them how people are being manipulated.

  3. You’re right, Bob. I remember that time well. The Weather Underground, the Black Panthers, both spread fear and hate. Did you ever think one of their members would be such an important adviser to a president?

  4. Bob Mack said

    I notice that the election of a Marxist president was not on the list. Back in ’63, no one thought the American electorate could ever be that stupid.

    • Maybe they are just naive! I remember that they fooled me too. But, I didn’t just read “their” bunk. I read everything I could get hold of and checked things out for myself!

      I don’t think I ever felt betrayed as bad except when I caught my husband cheating before we divorced, lol!
