Many of the cast of characters selected by Barack Obama to be members of his administration come from the extreme left-wing fringe of the Democrat Party.  Obama's selection of Harold Koh to be his State Department's Legal Advisor best exemplifies this fact.  Koh is a disciple of a radical belief called "transnationalism."   

Transnationalists, such as Harold Koh, believe that Americans should be governed by foreign laws and the viewpoints of international organizations such as the United Nations.  Indeed, former Supreme Court justice Sandra Day O'Connor actually referred to international law when making some of her decisions on cases before the Supreme Court.  Others on the court believe likewise and so does Obama's first nominee to the Supreme Court, Sonia Sotomayor.   

Harold Koh is so radical that he referred to America as being a part of the "axis of disobedience" because we do not kow-tow to foreign laws which he and his fellow left-wing ideologues advocate for this country.  Obama's nominee to the State Department actually put us in this category with the likes of North Korea, Iran and Saddam Hussein's Iraq.
