Hailing Barack Obama's win as a victory for the "working class," the 
Communist Party USA is calling on the president-elect to carry out his 
promises, including his noted commitment to "spread the wealth."

An editorial by the People's Weekly World said the victory was for "workers 
of all job titles, professions, shapes, colors, sizes, hairstyles and 
languages."

The newspaper, which boasts of its "partisan coverage," identifies itself as 
"a national, grassroots weekly newspaper and the direct descendant of the 
'Daily Worker.'"

"We are partisan to the working class, racially and nationally oppressed 
peoples, women, youth, seniors, international solidarity, Marxism and 
socialism. We enjoy a special relationship with the Communist Party USA, 
founded in 1919, and publish its news and views," the publication states.

The paper said Obama's victory is "important . not only for people here in 
the U.S., but also for our sisters and brothers around the world."

"The election outcome represents a clear mandate for pro-people change on 
taxes, health care, the war in Iraq, job creation and economic relief, union 
organizing and the Employee Free Choice Act. Reform and relief are in the 
air. Their scope and depth will be the arena of struggle. The best thing the 
coalition that won this victory can do is to stick together and help the new 
administration carry through on its promises," the editorial said.

"Jubilation and celebration, yes, along with realization that the hard work 
is just beginning," the PWW editorial said.

Obama's commitment to "spread the wealth" was caught on tape as he talked 
with an Ohio voter, "Joe the Plumber," who became a personality in the 2008 
election campaign for the exchange in which he suggested Obama's plan 
sounded like socialism.

Obama's media team did not respond to a WND telephone message and e-mail 
requesting a comment.

Michelle Obama has made similar commitments, warning that some Americans may 
have to give up a piece of the pie in order that others may have a larger 
share.

Samuel L. Blumenfeld, a WND columnist, earlier cited Obama's history of 
links to significant players in the communist effort in the United States.

"In his famous autobiography, 'Dreams From My Father,' Obama reveals that 
his earliest mentor in Hawaii was a man by the name of Frank Marshall Davis. 
It so happens that Davis had been sent to Hawaii in the late 1940s by the 
Communist Party to organize the party in Hawaii," Blumenfeld wrote.

"Davis had begun his communist career in Chicago. He was a friend and 
associate of Paul Robeson, the great singer, and Harry Bridges, head of the 
communist dominated International Longshoremen and Warehousemen's Union. 
Both men were secret Communist Party USA members."

Blumenfeld sees sees the impact of those influences in Obama's vision for 
the country.

"Obama has already proposed the creation of a homeland police force that 
will no doubt terrorize those in the 'ultra-right' who will become the most 
vociferous and active opponents of his socialist regime. Hitler had a 
similar police force called the Gestapo - Geheime Staats Polizie or Homeland 
State Police - that terrorized the opponents of the Nazi regime," he wrote.

"In 1933 a majority of Germans voted for a demagogue who promised 'change' 
and seemed to be the answer to their economic and national problems. None of 
those voters could have foreseen that 12 years later Germany would lie in 
ruins and be occupied by foreign armies," he wrote.

WND previously reported Davis, frequently accompanied by young Barack Obama 
and his grandfather, sold marijuana and cocaine from a "Chicago style" hot 
dog cart in the early 1970s, according to a source.
