EDITOR OF REDSTATE

Inside The ACORN Rolodex: ACORN Has Its Own Political Party Other Than the Democrats

By: Erick Erickson (Diary)  |  September 23rd, 2009 at 05:01 AM  | 

RESIZE: AAA

You can read the first part of our examination of ACORN contacts leaked to RedState by clicking here.

acorntree.png

Above is a word cloud of the associations in the Bertha Lewis contacts list we received. Some are legitimate business dealings. Forest City Ratner, for example, is both bailing out ACORN and relying on its support for its construction projects. But others are more intriguing.

The larger the name, the greater the frequency of the name appearing in the contacts list. For many years it has been speculated that SEIU and ACORN share a common foundation. This seems to suggest as much. In fact, in at least one appearance on the contacts list, an SEIU official has an ACORN email address.

But were this picture a tree, the trunk would be the Working Families Party. Roger Stone has suggested the Working Families Party is ACORN. Bertha Lewis’s contacts list suggests as much.

Lewis is both the head of ACORN and also the Co-Chair of the Working Families Party. As you can imagine, ACORN would have us believe that those are separate roles. However, information suggests otherwise and we also know that ACORN has a habit of creating political parties for its own ends.

To understand how the Working Families Party is part of ACORN, we need to understand the concept of “fusionism.”

I’ve written about this concept before and it is essential to ACORN’s political strategy.

As I noted back in 2008, ACORN played a vital role in the Chicago area New Party — the far left political party that endorsed Barack Obama.

From my 2008 article on Obama’s New Party ties:

Fusion is a pretty simple concept. A candidate could run as both a Democrat and a [Working Families Party] member to signal the candidate was, in fact, a left-leaning candidate, or at least not a center-left DLC type candidate. If the candidate, let’s call him Barack Obama, received only 500 votes in the Democratic Party against another candidate who received 1000 votes, Obama would clearly not be the nominee. But, if Obama also received 600 votes from the [Working Families Party], Obama’s [Working Families Party] votes and Democratic votes would be fused. He would be the Democratic nominee with 1100 votes.

The fusion idea set off a number of third parties, but the New Party was probably the most successful. A March 22, 1998 In These Times article by John Nichols showed just how successful. “[The Wall Street] Journal’s editorialists fretted last fall about how the New Party was responsible for a labor movement that was drifting leftward …. As [openly declared socialist] Rep. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) puts it, ‘If the Wall Street Journal editorial page goes after you, you can pretty well bet you’re doing the right thing.’”

ACORN knows all about Fusion because it worked with the New Party in Chicago as if the New Party were ACORN’s political party.

In These Times reported on February 17, 1997, that “the [New] [P]arty, with 80 members in the [17th] ward, many of whom are also active in the Service Employees International Union and the advocacy group ACORN, has begun to build a parallel precinct organization.”

With the experiences it garnered in Chicago, ACORN knows how to deploy fusion in elections.

That brings us to the Working Families Party (“WFP”) in New York.

In this “fusion” system, candidates appear on the ballot lines of all the parties that endorse them. The WFP, thus, leverages power by selectively awarding its line to candidates who support its agenda. So, for example, Hillary Clinton in 2000 received 102,000 votes for U.S. Senate on the WFP line, meaning 102,000 people sent her a message that their support was contingent on her supporting the WFP’s agenda. According to WFP Executive Director Dan Cantor, this message gets louder down the ballot. “We brand our endorsed candidates right on the ballot so that voters who might not know the candidate still know how to vote on the important issues,” he says.

According to Elizabeth Benjamin in the New York Daily News,

Even the Democrats – who have become the WFP’s closest allies since the party helped them win a slim majority in the state Senate – are looking to distance themselves. They’ve got plans to build their own field organization.

That would enable Dems to rely less onthe WFP’s controversial for-profit arm, Data & Field Services, which has drawn scrutiny from the city Campaign Finance Board.

This is important because, following ACORN’s pattern of practice, the WFP set up Data & Field Services to skirt around election laws as a for-profit entity. Unfortunately for them, the New York Campaign Finance Board ruled Data & Field Services is part and parcel WFP. That means it has to comply with campaign finance rules.

If it were shown that ACORN is joined at the hip to WFP in the same way Data & Field Services is, then ACORN might also have to comply and disclose — something it does not have to do now.

As it stands now, with the close association between the two, a candidate can get on both the Democratic ballot in New York and the WFP ballot and signal that they are the ACORN approved candidate. With ACORN’s growing negative reputation, it is only a matter of time before it spills over to the Working Families Party.

    ACORN, is great political leverage, against BO’s healthcare, but it’s ultimately a distraction. Healthcare defeat is the one and only way, in my opinion, to win ’12.

    If Lewis is chair of both groups separately it would lend to the argument that she has contacts for both simply because she is associated with both. The contacts in and of themselves prove nothing outside of what was already known.

    I’ve been re-reading this typing to rack my brain for contact questions and I keep thinking about donors. I went to labor lunch to take photos as a family favor and ever since I get mail from that labor union (which is amazing because I never gave my address, thanks family) whenever they have an event. This keeps going through my head — perhaps some of the contacts are folks who gave money to ACORN or WFP (such as on the list over at open secrets –

    http://www.opensecrets.org/parties/affiliatesdetail.php?pacid=C00350991&cycle=2006 )

    Just a thought.

    I look forward to seeing more come out of this information as it seems to be getting interesting.

  • JadedByPolitics

    I cannot stomach people who for whatever reason recently have been throwing out the “this isn’t important enough” or on the donation diary “I don’t know why we have to give now”….it’s those slight downturns in peoples responses that get people’s brain’s going “yeah why”…..This ACORN thing is huge and it was huge in 2008 if the media had done its job. Obama and this group and its subgroups with it’s tentacles in every aspect of government including our voting rights made it untenable for Conservatives. I TRULY think that this line of attack through the 200+ groups that make up ACORN is the way forward for Republicans and everything will spill out from that including the defeat of Healthcare. HCAN, SEIU, ACORN all in the same bed and when we light up the mattress they all burn up! That gives us wins on Cap & Tax, CardCheck, Obamacare etc…..they are all the same thing more power for unions and more money for Democrats in elections…..it is so obvious as to be blinding.

    and the issue of ACORN is a major one. I so well remember after the 2008 elections, with the fraudulent voter regisrations brough in by ACORN, the Republicans were up in arms because they believed that at least a few candidates “stole” their wins with the help of ACORN, Stuart Smalley comes to mind immediately. In my opinion, Virgil Goode lost to Perriello because of “votes that someone forgot to turn in on election night.” He only won by 800 and some (stolen) votes. The Republicans screamed about unfair elections. Now that the tip of the voter fraud iceberg has been broken open, how could anyone remotely believe that it’s a “distraction”? They are a Democrat group, they campaign for Democrats only, they steal votes for Democrats only, yet they are getting Federal taxpayer monies. I go with Glenn Beck on this one, before another decision or bill is brought up in Congress, the massive amount of corruption in Washington must be stopped. No better way to start that process then bt exposing every crooked nook and cranny ACORN is hiding in. To prove to the American people that the Democrats have rigged the system, bankrupted the country, and are in power only for powers sake, is an immediate winner for the Republicans, and one that we must stay focused on. The next step will be to primary the RHINOS.

    We’re all activists. Being on the FP of RS does not give us more power than you do to shape the debate.

    ….the problem still remains, you’re still playing nice, playing by their rules.
    Playing nice means that you are still subject to Charles Gibson’s axiom “This is something that should be left to the cable networks.” Playing nice means that eventually “Pinch” Sulzberger, David Gregory, Chris Matthews and Jeffrey Immelt will wear you down until you are as defenseless as the naked Jewish lady from WWII, photographed without a stitch covering her, seated helplessly on the ground trying to provide herself a bare minimum of personal modesty with only her hands and arms as she awaited her execution by members of the Nazi’s Einsatzgruppen.

    by the middle of next year at the latest. It’ll be all but forgotten by the 2012 campaign.

    We also have cap & trade and Obama’s foreign policy unilateralism to deal with as well. Those two are probably equally as dangerous for this country as healthcare socialism.

    But the strategy needs to be to weaken Obama and the Democrats overall. The effort to get ACORN out of the picture helps set the stage for that weakening.

    Van Jones and any ACORN flunkies that get fired are nice. We have to make the followers pay the price of being followers of these leaders. But Comrade Obama has an almost endless supply of appratchniks and useful idiots who’ll work cheap at an ACORN office.

    If we are to meaningfully weaken Comrade Obama and the Democrat Politburo, we must take out members of Congress. Rahmbo beat us into the outer darkness by out-conservativing us in Republican districts. He took out a crop of mostly born-again Republicans who were basically gladhanders glomming on to the Republican ascendancy of the ’90s. They didn’t believe in anything but getting elected and being an R was the way to get elected at the time. They became a part of the get-along, go along, bring home the bacon crowd that along with GWB’s ineffectiveness left a smoking hole where the Republican Party used to be. We need to mercilessly attack every Democrat elected since ’04 in a Red-leaning district.

    As much fun as it is to pull Comrade Obama’s tail, he can’t pass legislation. We need to first make members of Congress afraid to vote with him, then take those members out in ’10 and ’12. Maybe by ’12 we’ll have somebody who can meaningfully challenge Comrade Obama, but even four more years of BHO won’t be unendurable if we have at least one and preferably both bodies of Congress in his second term. We’ll have to listen to him drone on endlessly, but in victory, we can be magnanimous and applaud politely.

  • Scope

    Do you think that the members of Congress still have any authority? From your past writings about the “shadow government”, don’t you think that Obama is doing all he can to bypass our legislative branch, which so far has not been very successful in enacting his agenda? I don’t know that the Republicans can win majorities in either the House or Senate, and wouldn’t it take majorities in at lease one to overthrow the shadow government, which is accountable to only the Obaminator? Please talk about your ideas about the Czars.

  • Scope

    that once ACORN and it’s affiliates are exposed, and hopefully shut down, only then do we have a chance at even getting fair elections.

    I think as long as they don’t wield the actual authority of an officer requiring confirmation, they’re Constitutional. In fact, I’ve long advocated that Republican executives do the same thing. Especially if you’re a Republican, you are simply going to be trashed in the confirmation process, so lots of good people won’t take the appointments. I don’t think I’d take an appointment that required confirmation. I don’t mind being called names as long as it’s by the right people, but it really upsets my wife. I’d go so far as to leave cabinet slots vacant and only make interim appointments. That way I can get somebody with a track record and who knows what they’re doing, not some namby-pamby with no record that can get past the slime machine.

    ‘Course, communist thug that he is, Comrade Obama is doing it as much to give some of his “oppressed” buddies a fancy salary and title just to spite the honky dogs as he is for any real expertise they might have. What the Republicans would find if they were to try actually forcefully opposing these people is that they are not at all formidable. The only places that unions and lefties can prosper is in places where there is no opposition. These punks and thugs have never had any opposition in places like Chicago, SFO, and NYC. I mean they thought they were showing power to “the man” when they shook down businesses in those places, but actually the businesses knew that they could get neither justice nor support from the Democrat government, so they just paid – or moved if it got too bad.

    The Democrat Knowles Administration ran a lot of this same playbook, it’s a union playbook and AFSCME was calling the shots here. Except, they only had the Executive Branch, the Republicans held both bodies of the Legislature. One of the things they did was completely wipe out the State’s central personnel and labor relations functions. The devolved it all away to the operating departments and ran all the skilled hands off. That way it was safe to make nice Democrat patronage hires into any job and at any pay anywhere in the government without any of those stinking qualifications and stuff getting in the way. With no meaningful L/R, the unions didn’t need to actually negotiate and administer labor agreements. The Administration’s labor policy for the first six years was “ask the union what it wants.” They didn’t need to arbitrate grievances. First there weren’t many because the union was free to intimidate supervisors, so they didn’t much supevise. Second, they didn’t really even need to file grievances and take the case to arbitration when all they had to do was call a commissioner or the Gov’s Office and they’d get what they wanted. Even after they got tired of the constant demands and after I came back in ’99, it was all too common to have a case set to go to arbitration when suddenly a signed resolution totally against the State’s interest would come down from the Commissioner’s office.

    Before this becomes a book; Democrats always think that they’ll never lose and election and will be in power forever, so they never think about what the other guy will do. When we took over in ’02, we were very quickly able to restore basic functionality in these functions that the Ds had tried to destroy. But the unions in eight years had essentially forgotten how to do the hard work, not that any of them were very good at it to begin with. Frankly, clamping down on them was like hunting in a baited field. We’d find the same thing now if any of those fat comfortable old men in Congress had a pair.

    I’m going to go out on a limb here and suggest that linking to DailyKos from here isn’t really viewed favorably, but there is actually a diarist over there that has done a pretty good job describing the – let’s for amusement’s sake call them “massive irregularities” – engaged in by the Working Families Party. To followers of ACORN corruption scandals the tale sounds very familiar.

    Because it has been very difficult to get some good people past the confirmation process, beginning with Bork, and denigrating from there, I can see a “few” presidential appointments in high level policy promoting positions.” But, something like 44 Czars, who are highly paid, by us the taxpayers, and answering to no one but the Communist, why then even have a Senate and House? Didn’t the Constitution give the power to the Legislative branch, in order to pass bills, rather than to concentrate the powers in the Executive branch? You did address the fact that the current crop of Czars are not those that should have any say, because some are as radically communist, or even more so than the Obominator. The fact that they are selected rather than elected takes any power away from the citizens, and just forces all of us to sit over there and just shut up. If they are allowed, and are given any powers by a president, R or D, then it becomes the shadow government that you have warned against, and written about. How can we ever hope to stop the march away from the Constitution, if we do the same dam* thing?

  • Achance

    They may have great power over those who do, however. I don’t like it, but it is just a reflection of the world the Democrats have made. I’m a tit for tat kinda guy. I’m not going to commit political suicide by standing on principle. If we hold an office with appointment powers and they won’t confirm, I think you just find a work around.

    Now what he’s doing is he knows that NOBODY outside Bezerkley would want to even be associated with some of these people and even most of the lefty Democrats wouldn’t want a vote on record.

  • Scope

    and at times like that, I do agree with getting the job done, with the right people. You are correct that the Czars have no bill passing and signatory powers, but, Obamas communists I believe are the ones actually writing the bills. Didn’t Reid thank the Appollo organization for their “work” on the stimulus bill? Why should they read the bills, when whatever has been written by the shadow government will be passed no questions asked. BTW, I read today that Dirty Harry Reid will not bring any investigations of ACORN into the Senate. He claims that the “other” organizations that are supposedly conducting investigations are sufficient. He “DOESN’T WANT TO POLITICIZE THE INVESTIGATIONS.”

    not in any legislative body. That’s work for staffers, both legislative and executive, lobbyists, and consultants. I could show you the working drafts of a lot of Alaska legislation right here on this computer.

    I said the other day that there wouldn’t be a meaningful investigation of ACORN, nor will they actually cut off their funding. They got their splash by doing it now they’ll put it back in and nobody will know but us right wing nuts that listen to Rush and Beck and type in our bathrobes. Though today, we’re out of milk, so I’m actually dressed now and am heading for the store.

  • gahazzah

    I wasn’t making the point that ACORN is on the “up and up” or that things are “that simple”. I should have clarified.

    There are 1,849 contacts, many of which are not current. That being said, the only way to gleam meaningful information from such a huge list is to narrow down the relevant contacts. A contact that hasn’t been updated in “x” amount of time, say since the 2006 election cycle, who gave money during that campaign might be a red herring. It bears looking into possible connections and trying to see if there is a relevant way that such contacts might be meaningful but you have to assume that not every contact is a conspiracy in the making.

    It makes perfect sense that Lewis would have WFP AND ACORN contacts as she is chair of both. But it makes sense for 1 of 2 reasons. 1) She just happens to be chair of both. 2) She is chair of both to cast doubt on the connections.

    Lewis is going to lie about anything that could cast a shadow on ACORN and WFP. That being said you have to narrow down how people are involved. ACORN and WFP have to get their money from somewhere. Erick has a list of ACORN contacts, he can filter that through somewhere like OpenSecrets to see if they gave money to WFP or got money from them. It’s not that it’s “that simple”, it’s just one more avenue to search for meaning in a web that wraps around the country.

    Basically, know your the next move your enemy plans and act accordingly. Lewis will say “x” contact is because they gave money or met at “y” event. Find something deeper and coincidences can be dispelled with the likelihood of criminality being exposed.

  • JadedByPolitics

    that he thought all of that through and is already making those connections and deleting what is not important? Let the story slide out like the video’s did one day at a time and the true illegality of the work that Lewis does and the connections all the way to the WH show its self. It is a damn shame that Erick Erickson of RedState has to do the work of the media and anything we can do to help move that information around w/o being defeatist about it is what we will do!

    Like I’ve said before, Obama’s almost “Brokeback Mountain” attraction to Chavez is unnerving. Especially since he is working hand in hand to further Chavez’s attempt to takeover Honduras.

    At another website I commented on the possibility that we are having trouble understanding Obama because as Americans we have a virtue which can also be a curse and that is we always try to find the best in other people. We do it personally, professionally, and sadly, politically.

    I’ve read and listened to all sides of the centrist to right to far right arguments. (I can’t do the left, they are simply insane.) When Charles Krauthammer gave his opinion about Obama, I saw that he did his best to wring out the good qualities Obama had; intelligent, charming, driven, blah blah blah. Krauthhammer and others excused Obama’s missteps as “rookie-ness”, tried to explain his comments and his acts as having a bad staff or a poor understanding of history or diplomatic manners. Everybody is quick to trot out the tired and worn out excuse that all new Presidents make mistakes.

    Yet, as we move into his fourth quarter of his first year the missteps are getting harder and harder to explain. The Russian/Poland deal, his backhanded slap to the Iranian protesters, his love affair with all that is Chavez, and now Honduras.

    Many people are confused and frustrated in trying to put the square peg of our past experiences with presidents into the round hole we are seeing that is Obama’s behavior. I don’t know how many times intelligent, thinking people I know have scratched their heads and wondered out loud how Obama could think he was doing the right thing when he committed some bizarre action. For example, the speech to the children; many said other Presidents did it before, as they ground that square peg down, but they didn’t address the worksheet and the details of the initial speech, before he got caught and modified it. (Speaking of getting caught, ask yourself what his presidency would look like if there were no checks on his behavior and agenda. Would it resemble more a Chavez administration?) Then there was the hiring of far left radicals, well known far left radicals to boot. People we all read about, but figured no one would seriously consider them for a powerful government position. Yet, there they are. Why?

    At some point you have to put aside the tried and true explanations used as an attempt to quantify Obama and look outside the box. In my old business of catching bad guys, I always took the time to study motives. Why do they do what they do? Often it gave insight as to who the bad guy was, and what he might try next.

    With Obama you look at his actions and you find yourself bending over backwards to make sense of it. I suggest you stop. Let what you see guide you to the motive and the man. What kind of man embraces Iran and shuns Israel? What kind of man is raised by a radical liberal, surrounded by radical liberals and communists, went to school and sought out radical liberals and communists, worked with and was picked promoted and presented to us by radical liberals with communist/socialist backgrounds? He is the total sum of his life. He is what he is, and nothing in his life to this point has forced him to change that.

    If you take Barack Obama and look at him clearly, not with you hoping for the best, what do you see? Would his actions fit the mold of a socialist/communist better than a simply misguided leftie? Why do we think the best for Obama and acted surprised when he brakes and turns hard left every chance he gets. If we had elected Bernie Sanders from Vermont, a committed socialist, and he acted like one, we wouldn’t be shocked. If we elected David Duke back in his heyday and found him shopping for white sheets at JC Penny, we wouldn’t say, “Didn’t see that coming.” If by some freak accident we elected a clone of Ahmadinejad and he started railing about the Jews, we wouldn’t have expected anything else.

    So why are we surprised over Obama? Because he told us he is post racial, post partisanship, the new era of politics? I think now, after all we have seen and all Obama has said that wasn’t true, we can draw at least one conclusion- he lies.

    Obama is who he is. The quicker we grasp that the better we can begin to resist the direction he will have to lead us in. He can’t help himself, it is his nature.

    There is an old fable I use to try and explain this to people who still want to believe the best in all of humanity. It goes like this;
    There was a terrible rain. The water in the river was rising and all the animals were trying to flee the island they were on before it went under. There was a rabbit, a turtle, a fox and a scorpion. They all started to swim across except the scorpion for he could not swim. He asked the rabbit if the rabbit would let him ride on his back. The rabbit said no, worried that the scorpion, who was mean by nature, would sting him. The scorpion cried out saying he would not. The scorpion asked the turtle and the turtle refused. The scorpion asked the fox and the fox at first refused, but the scorpion said, “Fox, ask why I would sting you? I cannot swim, if I stung you, you would die, and then I would surely drown. That makes no sense.” The fox, who thought himself smarter than the others decided the scorpion must be telling the truth. So he let the scorpion climb onto his back and they both began across the river. About halfway across the scorpion stung the fox. The fox, dying, rolled over and looked at the scorpion in shock and horror. “Why”, he asked, “did you sting me? Now I will die and you will die!”
    The scorpion looked at the fox and said, “I couldn’t help myself. It’s my nature.”

    My advice to you with Obama is simple. Be careful or you might find yourself stung as well.

    I don’t expect Erick to carry everybody’s water so if an idea pops up that might help, it’s sometimes useful to throw it out there. When you’re looking at raw data and trying to figure out connections sometimes the obvious escapes oneself.

    I’m sure Erick is smart enough to figure this out but if everybody posted on here only what they thought others didn’t know (or couldn’t think of) the site would be without comments.
