Letters From Hillary To Saul Alinsky Finally Revealed
The Washington Free Beacon has obtained some letters that Hillary Clinton wrote
to Saul Alinsky back in 1971 and they don't paint a pretty picture...
(Washington Free Beacon) "Dear Saul," she began. "When is that new book [Rules for Radicals] coming out—or has it come and I somehow missed the fulfillment of Revelation?"
"I have just had my one-thousandth conversation about Reveille [for Radicals] and need some new material to throw at people," she added, a reference to Alinsky’s 1946 book on his theories of community organizing.
Clinton devoted just one paragraph in her memoir Living History to Alinsky, writing that she rejected a job offer from him in 1969 in favor of going to law school. She wrote that she wanted to follow a more conventional path.
However, in the 1971 letter, Clinton assured Alinsky that she had “survived law school, slightly bruised, with my belief in and zest for organizing intact.”
"The more I’ve seen of places like Yale Law School and the people who haunt them, the more convinced I am that we have the serious business and joy of much work ahead—if the commitment to a free and open society is ever going to mean more than eloquence and frustration," wrote Clinton.
