College students chant for 'Karl Marx' and 'socialism' in front of White House
2012-11-09
A group of college students chanted "Karl Marx" and "socialism" while celebrating President Obama's electoral victory in front of the White House late Tuesday night, a video shot by Campus Reform reveals.

The raucous group of students chanted "Karl Marx, Karl Marx, Karl Marx," and cited abortion, socialism, and "Obama phones" as reasons for their support of President Obama's second term.

Thousands of college students from across Washington D.C. spontaneously gathered in front of the White House to celebrate President Obama's reelection.

Those students were among thousands from colleges across Washington, D.C. who spontaneously gathered in front of fences around the north lawn of the White House to celebrate President Obama's election victory.

#8  Oh, please. These kids were saying whatever they thought would fire up the vid-maker the most... I've been guilty of the same on one or two occasions. The sad thing is that such basically unserious people actually get to vote. We don't think they're old enough to drink- but we let them vote. Serious disconnect there IMHO.

#7  Dunno, like JohnQC alluded; those 22 year olds were born when the CCCP was coming apart. They have no notion of what real communism looks like.

#5  Could be a bunch of college kids messing with the camera person/news organization or it could be they really believe their own BS. If they had seen communism up close, it would not be attractive to them.
