All in the family: Valerie Jarrett and the  Chicago communists
By _Thomas Lifson_ (http://www.americanthinker.com/thomas_lifson) 

 
Her father was a pathologist and geneticist  at a children’s hospital in 
Shiraz as part of a U.S. aid program to assist  developing countries. The 
family eventually returned to America, specifically  Chicago, in 1963. Her 
mother was a child psychologist who helped establish the  Erikson Institute, 
which (Hillary Clinton-like) specialized in “child advocacy.”  The Erikson 
Institute got funding from the Woods Charitable Fund. If that sounds  familiar 
to readers here, it’s because Barack Obama and Bill Ayers eventually  served 
together as board members at Woods.  
Now her Chicago roots  are more disturbing — and indicative of her 
ideology. They also connect her to  Obama and his ideological roots. 
Valerie’s maternal  grandparents were Robert Rochon Taylor and Dorothy 
Taylor. Robert was the first  African-American head of the Chicago Housing 
Authority. Dorothy, a native of  Berkeley, was active in  early Planned 
Parenthood. That’s ironic, given Margaret Sanger’s “Negro  Project,” her 1926 
speech to a KKK rally in Silverlake, New Jersey, and her  championing of 
racial-eugenics. Then again, Sanger’s penchant for “race  improvement” has 
never 
halted liberals’ veneration of her. 
 
In Chicago, Jarrett’s  family joined a circle with some other interesting  
characters: 
Frank Marshall Davis  was an African-American born in Kansas in 1905 who 
eventually moved to Chicago  and joined Communist Party USA. Notably, he 
joined the party after the signing  of the Hitler-Stalin Pact, a time when many 
American communists, particularly  Jewish-American communists, left the 
party. They left because Stalin’s signing  of the pact facilitated and enabled 
Hitler’s invasion of Poland and start of  World War II. Frank Marshall Davis, 
however, was undeterred. He joined after  the pact.

 
Worse, Davis, in  Chicago, worked for one of the most egregious communist 
fronts in the history of  this country: the American Peace Mobilization. 
Congress called the American  Peace Mobilization “one of the most notorious and 
blatantly communist fronts  ever organized in this country” and “one of the 
most seditious organizations  which ever operated in the United States.” 
The group’s objective was to stop the  United States from entering the war 
against Hitler—again, because Hitler and  Stalin were allies. American 
communists were allows loyal Soviet patriots. They  literally swore allegiance 
to 
the USSR and its line. 
In my  book _Dupes_ 
(http://www.amazon.com/Dupes-Americas-Adversaries-Manipulated-Progressives/dp/1935191756/)
 ,  I publish the original Soviet 
Comintern document acknowledging that the American  Peace Mobilization was 
founded 
on the Comintern’s initiative in Chicago in  September 1940. There, the 
Comintern and Communist Party USA attempted to  organize a coalition of 
leftists 
and “progressives” who would keep America out  of the war and out of any 
support for Britain or anyone opposing Hitler and  Stalin—who, again, were 
allies.
 
Okay, how does this  involve Valerie Jarrett? Jarrett’s grandfather, Robert 
Taylor, was involved with  the American Peace Mobilization, as was Frank 
Marshall  Davis. 
Taylor also served with  Davis on another communist front, the Chicago 
Civil Liberties Committee, whose  members masqueraded as civil-rights crusading 
“
progressives.” The two served on  the board together. 
And there’s more.  Valerie Jarrett has additional family roots in these 
things. Both Taylor  (Jarrett’s grandfather) and Frank Marshall Davis—who 
would one day meet and  become a mentor to a young Barack Obama in Hawaii in 
the 
1970s—would have often  encountered another politically active Chicagoan, 
Vernon Jarrett. In fact,  Vernon Jarrett and Frank Marshall Davis worked 
together on the very small  publicity team (a handful of people) of the 
communist-controlled Packinghouse  Workers Union.
 
Who was Vernon Jarrett?  He would one day become Valerie Jarrett’s  
father-in-law. 
So, to sum up, Obama’s  mentor, Frank Marshall Davis, worked with the 
literal relatives of Valerie  Jarrett—her grandfather and future father-in-law—
in Chicago’s Communist Party  circles in the 1940s. 
Now all of this is  obviously pure coincidence. To suggest otherwise would 
result in being branded a  conspiracy theorist. Professor Kengor studiously 
avoids suggesting any such  thing, and sticks to the facts. Because everyone 
knows there was never a  communist conspiracy. And Barack Obama’s life 
story is completely  transparent.
