I harbored suspicions that Occupy Wall Street could be part of President Obama’s re-election campaign strategy. And the unfolding events seem to be validating my position.

As the Occupy Wall Street protests have grown and evolved we have seen a major change in overall direction coming from the most vocal supporters.
While many still claim that this is not a political movement, the unfortunate fact is that everyday we see more and more evidence that the establishment left has, at least in part, co opted the movement.
Yesterday’s so called Millionaires March has drawn major media attention around the world, with support popping up in places that most wouldn’t think would support protesters targeting the financial district.
Linette Lopez, writing for the Business Insider, revealed that the real powers behind the march were numerous extreme leftist organizations with open socialist and communist ties.
Now here’s who they are specifically:
-The Working Families Party
-UnitedNY
-New York Communities for Change
-Strong Economy For All Coalition
-VOCAL-NY
-Community Voices Heard
Those are some pretty established New York groups that span across the state, and they have some powerful people behind them.
So we have super leftist organizations running large scale protests for the Occupy Wall Street protesters yet we are supposed to believe that this is not a political movement?
While it is clear that these organizations do not speak for ALL the protesters, a growing majority are seemingly falling in line with groups who openly support one of Wall Streets biggest supporters, President Barack Obama.

President Obama desperately needs a gimmick…and real quick
And there’s no easier way to pander to the masses than to resort to groupthink gimmickry which have mostly been based on class warfare (Buffett Taxes), nationalism (via protectionism also here) and racism.
For the left, desperate times call for desperate measures
In Los Angeles, police ALWAYS arrest protestors when they don't stay on the sidewalk. This was the FIRST march I have ever seen in downtown LA, where the local PD allowed marchers to break the law 1000 fold. When protestors held a "sit in" in a downtown Bank of America branch, the local PD was again, "hands off." The bank employees initiated a "citizen's arrest."
