It would be perfect continuity for Oakland - Commie Ron Dellum to Commie Van Jones!

Sure...why not. Could be an improvement.

People in Oakland are just stupid enough to vote for Jones. They deserve everything they get. He can try out his “green” jobs program at a local level and see how it works. Just watch Van crash and burn. This is a perfect marriage. I hope he runs and wins. There's nothing to lose. Dellums is as bad as it gets, so Van Jones cannot be worse.

A giant army of supporters? I guess that’s why he resigned, huh. All those supporters.

Give him a chance.

Sure, why not? Why let a little thing like being called an @$$hole get in the way of a beautiful friendship?

You forgot about Dellums' predecessor, Mayor Moonbeam hisself. Talk about a double play combo! "Brown to Dellums to Jones" doesn't have the ring of "Tinker to Evers to Chance", but they're just as deadly!

As a viable stepping stone to AG of California, I say no. Let him drift back into obscurity where he belongs.

Van Jones at the Western States Center 2006 CSTI
http://www.coyoteco.com/?p=34

The guy is an out and out commie. Watch the video to see the manipulation. Straight out of the Communist Manifesto 1848.

And around 1230ish on the video he says we use the flag to commit “genocide”, etc., and we’re also “fascists’ and “bigots. Screw him.

Oakland fine. The WH not so fine.

“a swift-boating and a smearing”

These people are clowns. Pointing out the facts of the guy’s life is neither a swift-boating or a smearing. Perhaps the writer can tell us why Jones was less than honest in his security application?

As for running as a carpet-bagging mayor of Oakland, I would say that the dishonest and avowed communist Jones is the perfect man for the job. The only thing that would make it better is if the Bay Area seceded from the Union.

Uh huh. Remember those who said it couldn't get any worse than George H.W. and then George W Bush?

It can always get worse.

True - but Brown is in a universe of his own.

Nick, whatever you think the man said he's a Commie.

Frankly, that's enough or me.

This sort of thing simply isn't subject to rehabilitation!

Leftists in office are the primary reason this country is declining.
