What does that have to do with the price of tea in Iran?

My point is that the CPUSA didn't endorse Obama because they were of the same ideology. William Buckley, for example, supported Francoist Spain as the "lesser evil" to the Republicans but that doesn't mean he was a fascist.
I don't care if they endorse him or not. Has nothing to do with whether or not progressivism is communism.
However, the CPUSA considers progressivism to be the same.

No they did not-they consider progressivism a lesser evil to conservatism.
Anyways so what makes progressivism communist considering that the former merely wishes to regulate and tame capitalism while the latter wishes to abolish it? Was Harry Truman, who on economic issues was far to the left of President Obama, a communist despite forming NATO and intervening in Korea?
Apparently you do not know what it is.

What do you mean by "it"?

Can't quite keep up, can you?
The CPUSA considers progressivism a useful tool that will, according to their theory, eventually lead to the U.S. embracing a communist form government.

And CPUSA is quite delusional if it thinks that.

I agree completely. Nonetheless, it's their theory. Kinda like the Russian news media's "theories" about what "really happened" to MH17.

There is nothing in Ms. Warren's list that is communism. Only a delusional or ill-informed mind would make that connection.
- "We believe that after a lifetime of work, people are entitled to retire with dignity, and that means protecting Social Security, Medicare, and pensions."
No way to do this without a massive transfer of wealth.

No one made that connection. She's just a bald-faced liar. Nothing more.

So be it. If anything there isn't enough transfer of wealth in this country compared to Germany or Sweden.
I feel sorry for you if you believe that.

He doesn't. Warren does. Anyway, that would fit in with the rest of her "manifesto."
You mean the Socialist state of Switzerland ? I thought the claim was she WASN'T a socialist ?

Those states are social democratic at best, not socialist. Unfortunately, though, Warren isn't a social democrat, just a modestly reformist liberal.
Redistribution of wealth is a socialist idea. Certainly you're not going to deny this.
Swiss citizens are subject to laws on three different levels, the commune, the canton and the federal laws.

Warren is a far left extreme socialist. Nothing more, nothing less.
Don't forget liar. Can you just for a second, imagine if a republican candidate had lied in order to steal a job from a minority. Just honestly imagine such a thing.
I'm beginning to think democrats are hypocritical, lying, thug bullies, who do not care about anything but maintaining power. And enough about how they care for the poor. I am the poor. It was better for me when republicans had congress. Much better.
