Jacrosse -- please don't keep editing the word "ostensibly" back into this article. It's a good example of a weasel word: it introduces doubt into the article without making any concrete claims about her status. There are any number of documents that document that Healey left the party in 1973; if there is a reason to believe that wasn't true, please post the sources -- or better yet, start the Dorothy Healey article and put them there! :-) Tim Pierce 18:17, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
The Richard Healey mentioned in the article is a deceased Australian politician born in 1923 when Dorothy Healey was 9 years-old. Dorothy Healey did have a son with the same first name but I haven't been able to find any political connections that he might have had to the CPUSA or any other political organization except for the New American Movement.

Good work, Carrite!
An oral presentation described NAM as having a fascination with Eurocommunism. Maybe neo-Leninist" is too strong? Do you have any organizational statements by NAM about Lenin and Leninism? I can guess that the "foco" theory of Che Guevara was another influence, as well as the former New Leftists coming to terms with their enthusiasm for the Cultural Revolution, etc.

This article does not describe the organization of which I and many other democratic socialists of my acquaintance were members. I fear that the sources used are either not neutral, or are being cherry-picked to exaggerate the radicalism of the group. As a former member, of course, I can only make this observation and ask for some eyes on it. -- Orange Mike | Talk 02:01, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
