A More Politically Cohesive Polish America - Implications For Stallinist Poland?

Irish Americans were a fantasitic group for organising themselves politically indeed were very powerful in city governments and the Democratic party. Groups such as Noraid were highly supportive of the Republican military campaign in Ulster and Irish-Americans such as Ted Kennedy, Tip O'Neill and Bill Clinton were great friends to Ireland in general and very active in bringing peace and stability to Northern Ireland ultimately!
The Jewish lobby has been very proactive in promoting The Israel agenda!
Polish Americans are quite a large ethnic group, what if they had organised themselves better politically, could there have been implications for the Polish State under communist rule?

I can see it happening in Chicago, Detroit, and possibly New York, but.........I'd be careful with that 'Jewish lobby' stuff.
 
The short answer is "No."

The long answer is that Poland wanted to keep territory it nabbed when it attacked the USSR and barely staved off its own destruction. In 1944. When the USSR had the greatest army of all the Allied powers and was overrunning most of Eastern Europe. Unfortunately for Poland it's got nothing it can really do to overturn Soviet victory, given the alternative is Nazi genocide.
 
But what about when Stallinism is established in Poland post WW2, can an organised Polish-American lobby help to undermine it? Obviously the Polish-American community is much larger than those other Eastern European originating communities in the United States, which were to see their lands of origin under Stallinist occupation!
 
we could have solidarity getting more international support in early 80s and perhaps there is no repression against it due to (Polish-)American outcry. The changes in Eastern Europe TTL might take place a few years earlier than OTL, and everything butterflies from there.

Believe it or not, it exists. Pointing out it does is not necessarily anti-semitic.
