No. What does that have to do with Miller's political leanings?

Why would you doubt him if he stated he was a Communist?

Do you think they would admit it? That's like asking if President Bush 
has made a statement that he is affiliated with neoNazis, as Miller and 
others have accused him.

I'm revealing Miller's political values so readers can better assess 
the quality of his statements for themselves. When an appeal is made to 
an authority it's good to know the authority's background. It goes to 
his credibility.
