Hugo Chavez-Linked Group Crafted 'You Can Keep Your Plan.' Research Developed By Imaging Guru For Venezuelan Dictator

By Aaron Klein

A little-known group called the Herndon Alliance has been the driving force in branding Obamacare to the public.

It was this group that advised President Obama to say Americans can maintain their choice of doctors and insurers under his health-care plan, KleinOnline has learned.

The Herndon Alliance is openly partnered with a number of radical groups, including MoveOn, the National Council of La Raza and a slew of George Soros-funded activist organizations.

It is also partnered with a “direct action” group dedicated to the teachings of radical Saul Alinsky.

The original research that informed Herndon’s blueprint for marketing Obamacare, KleinOnline has found, was concocted by the imaging guru for the late Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez.

Herndon’s campaign was also based on survey data from progressive pollster Celinda Lake, whose information was central in President Obama’s 2012 campaign decision to turn contraception for women into a key election issue.

Lake and Herndon have been providing strategy to Enroll America, the main organization pushing for the uninsured to sign up for Obamacare. Enroll America’s executive director, Ron Pollack, was a founding member of Herndon.

Behind Obamacare since beginning

The Herndon Alliance has been behind the marketing campaign for Obamacare since the inception of the legislation.

Herndon is “the most influential group in the health arena that the public has never heard of,” reported Politico in 2009.

Politico reported that when Obama repeatedly announced Americans can maintain their “choice” of doctors and insurance plans, “he is using a Herndon strategy for wringing fear out of a system overhaul.”

The Herndon Alliance evolved following an early 2005 three-day meeting attended by about 50 people in Herndon, Va. The gathering was coordinated by Seattle family physician Bob Crittenden, now the Herndon Alliance executive director, and Philippe Villers, who serves on the current board of directors as secretary-treasurer. Villers and his wife co-founded Families USA, or FUSA, in 1981. FUSA was run by Pollack, who is now running Enroll America.
