Karl Marx had an International Communist Party and he wanted to make a, as we would call it today, a party constitution. He also wanted to define communism in "The Manifesto of the Communist Party".

You would be a Socialist, or Communist.
I personally think that if the communist party took back over Russia then the country would fall apart just like last time it has shown time and time again the only form of government that works is a democracy.
No, the Communist Party is not illegal in the US. While it has faced restrictions and controversies in the past, it is allowed to exist and operate under the First Amendment rights of freedom of speech and association.
The question makes no sense. The Communist party began its operations through its own actions. If the question intends to ask what political party the Communists opposed in China, it would be the Nationalists.
There is no specific monetary cost to individuals if you wish to join the Communist Party, anyone can join for free. It is more difficult to join the Communist Party in countries where the Communists are not in charge due to the negative view it receives (one example would be the USA).
You have to be more specific. There are lots of Communist Parties across the world- Germany still has three of them. And, despite what right-wingers on the internet would have you believe, the Nazi Party was not communist or socialist. But that is a complicated issue for another day.
You have not produced any excerpt.
No- The American Communist Party was essentially outlawed during the Cold War. The name has an extremely negative connotation. If a large number of Americans were to embrace the principles of Communism, they would not join the American Communist Party , but would take over a major party and campaign on an essentially Communist platform without ever mentioning the words "Communist" or "Marxist" in their ads. ( I can not predict whether the US will have a Marxist or extreme-left leaning president within the next 50 years.)
The liberal and Country party were staunch anti Communists So when it became obvious that the communists were going to win a national election for government they decided that they would help The USA in defending the non communist south Vietnamese government.
