If there are any doubters that Barack Obama was a member of the New Party in the 90s, this may clear it up.
From the New Zeal blog, here is a screen capture of the newsletter announcing the success of New Party member Barack Obama in his state senate election. Note the quote…

I am not trusting enough to think Mr. Obama will cast aside his far left mentoring and govern from the center, especially if he gets majorities in the House and Senate.
