Jones says the Democratic Party needs more progressive leaders. He adds that "incoming Sen. Kamala Harris will be a star in the party. The Clinton family's grip on the Democratic Party has come to an end and it's time for a new generation of leadership to lead the party",...
"... I think that the Clinton days are over," Jones told CNN's Jake Tapper ... "This idea that we're going to be this moderate party that's going to move in this direction, that's going to throw blacks under the bus for criminal justice reform, and for prison expansion, that's going to throw workers under the bus for NAFTA, those days are over."
He added that Kamala Harris, a California Democrat who was just elected to the US Senate, is "unreal.""She's going to be out there defending those DREAMer kids because they're a big part of her constituency," he said. "But she's got African-American roots. She's got Asian roots. She's female. She's tough. She's smart. She's going to become a big deal."
Jones also called Democratic Rep. Keith Ellison, the first Muslim elected to Congress who is eying the DNC chairmanship, "important" because he's progressive. "I think that Keith Ellison is very important because he is somebody who represents the progressive wing of the party," he said. "One thing that happened, when Hillary Clinton had a chance to make a VP pick, she didn't pick someone from the progressive wing, which made it much harder to heal those wounds with the (Bernie) Sanders and Elizabeth Warren wing. Keith Ellison represents that wing very, very well."...

Oh, please.....alienate those moderate Democrats. I dare you. I double dare you.
Uh huh. “Forward the Revolution, Comrades, not one step back!” Jones probably ought to look behind him. That idiot parade has dwindled to the paid help and you won’t be getting any revolutions out of that. If Hillary hadn’t the feminist history card to play the Dems would have lost all 50 states. I’m fine with it if he wants to try, though. How many votes did the Peace And Freedom Party get again?
Kamala Harris = Useless as ________.
During her tenure, I had to bring multiple class action lawsuits in various CA Superior Court jurisdictions because she didn’t enforce the laws and/or protect the citizens from criminals.
Something’s going on here, but you don’t know what it is, do you, Mr. Jones?
The Democrats sure do like to put a lot of faith in people who have done absolutely nothing.
“But she’s got African-American roots. She’s got Asian roots. She’s female. She’s tough. She’s smart. She’s going to become a big deal.”
Change the Identity Record! More of what Tribe one is associated with.. Please before I die, I hope humans WILL GET PAST what race or gender one is...
Can we let Cali be the progressive (Marxist-socialist) Mecca the proggies all want? And tell all proggies to live there? We other 49 states limit Federal social support $$$ drastically, only provide basic defense, border control and trade controls. They live communally, proggies and queers and Mexicans happily singing kumbaya.
What insight!!!
Progressive wing? I didn’t know the Democrats had any other wing.
Promising more “free stuff” will work. As Rush says it’s hard to beat Santa Clause.
Just WTH is this guy smoking? Have they legalized something other that pot to smoke in this country? Keep talking, Van. Let Keith and Kamala say all they want. I can’t wait to see the look of untter defeat on their faces too.
(Kamala? Wasn’t that a wrestler back in the old days of WWE?)
Bill was a more moderate democrat - a pragmatist who read the tea leaves and went along. I always felt like he was more concerned with his popularity than politics.
Hillary on the other hand is a far left crony-liberal who sought power, progressive change, and personal wealth. Bill is all in on the personal wealth because it makes him relevant to give speeches for huge sums of money.
Hillary was honest when she called us deplorable. That is how she, and her ilk, really feel.
Please please go ahead and double down on this dumpocrats.
Well, if they fail, the GOP will split to replace the failure.

Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.
