The OP cites Alinsky's 12 steps and intimates that they are used by both parties. Perhaps? Is there a difference in the game of politics to that of the application and intent of Alinsky's steps? I think so. Progressives both political and academic have applied these steps to blunt discussion to gain sole control, to indoctrinate etc. Look back at the response you get from progressives if you attempt a discussion about blacks or gays "racist " "homophobic". Look at education that focuses on gender race gay sex etc. In southern florida teachers are now told they have to teach 8th grade students about gays, transgender and go into detail about gay sex. Why do you think that is so? Progressives teach students America's colonial past as only evil. They don't teach the classics in many places because its all about evil white men. They pride themselves in diversity classes but don't teach civics, etc and continually re-write history .

But the real proof is in the application of Obama's policies as respects the below stated Alinsky 8 rules. In every aspect Obama has used each step
to transform America to Europe. Alinsky was a marxist/communist and he hated America.

How To control via A social State (Saul Alinsky)

Eight Levels of control:

1 Healthcare: Control healthcare and hence control the people
2 Poverty: increase the poverty level and control people by providing for them
3 Debt: Increase debt to high level so you can tax more and make poor poorer
4 Gun Control: Remove people’s ability to defend themselves
5 Welfare: Take control of people needs food shelter income
6 Education: Control what to read and what to hear
7 Religion: replace belief in god with belief in government
8 Class Warfare: divide the people into rich and poor

Need more be said.
