The Campaign for America’s Future, strategy center for the progressive “uprising” is teaming up with Van Jones’ “Rebuild The Dream” organization to lead the “Take Back the American Dream” conference this week in Washington DC. The Campaign for America’s Future writes:
“The ‘American Dream’ of a vibrant middle class is under siege. But there is a real middle-class uprising sweeping the nation to save it and renew it.
The Campaign for America‘s Future is teaming up with Van Jones’ “Rebuild The Dream” organization to add fuel to the grassroots fire that has already been lit—in Madison, Wisconsin and town halls all over the country. We want to channel that grassroots energy into an unstoppable force.”
Speakers at the conference include Rep. Barbara Lee, Sen. Bernie Sanders, Robert Reich and many more participating in discussions such as “Stop Outsourcing the Dream: How America Can Revive Manufacturing in a Green Industrial Revolution,“ and ”Paying for the Dream: Progressive Tax Reform and Social Justice.”
The conference’s bill will be footed by major liberal lobbying and advocacy groups such as the National Education Association, AFL-CIO, MoveOn.org, and SEIU. The conference’s homepage mobilizes progressives by asserting:
“With the floodgates of corporate campaign cash flung open and a Tea Party-dominated conservative movement doing violence to the fundamental pillars of middle-class prosperity, the promise of the American Dream is under threat as never before.”
In addition to discussions, training seminars and a “Networking Margarita Party,” the event will hold an awards gala honoring among others Planned Parenthood, undocumented Dream Act activists, and “The Wisconsin Movement.”
Co-Director of the Campaign for America’s Future Robert Borosage, spoke about the conference in a recent interview with Free Speech TV’s Thom Hartmann on his show, “The Big Picture:”
The conference will close with a “Jobs, Not Cuts!” rally on the U.S. Capitol high noon Wednesday. The conference discussions and training will take place Monday through Wednesday morning at the Washington Hilton, 1919 Connecticut Ave, NW Washington, DC.

It’s a bunch of commies talking anarchy.
You can’t “take back” something you never had. Van Jones and his ilk have never run the country- the closest they came was in the 1930’s in the heyday of the Communist Party of America.
Jones and his ilk can not take back....They want to take over,
with the CPUSA to be the one party.
“doing violence on the pillars”.....sums it up....class warfare propaganda. ..obama wants the 2012 election to be a violent upheaval. ..Don’t give it to him...remove his communist ass from office in a humiliating landslide defeat.

Now they do it in broad daylight and dare the right to make something of it.
All in due time.
In Chicago, about 30 protesters beat drums on the corner near the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. In Los Angeles, demonstrators hoping to get TV coverage gathered in front of the courthouse where Michael Jackson’s doctor is on trial on manslaughter charges.
ST. LOUIS—
A downtown St. Louis park is a micro tent city occupied by protesters as part of a nationwide grassroots demonstration speaking out about corporate greed and other issues.
About three dozen protesters were in Kiener Plaza on Monday a few blocks from the Gateway Arch.
Yep.. they are growing in numbers.
Ugly ass Marxists.
Commie Campout .
A bunch of whiney, too soft mofo’s walking around in slippers.
van jones has george soros money and the organizational assistance from the gangs that supported obama.
van jones was a close advisor to baraq.
baraq has not thrown him under the bus, just moved him out of the light.
It's about advancing the lefts socialist/communist agenda. They're using the young people who were never taught in the public schools what communism really is.
It would be nice if the TEA partiers in the NYC area went down to the protests and carried signs that said "Communism is not the answer. Be careful what you protest for."
This isn't a personal attack on anyone, but the kids might actually think about what they're supporting.
It's starting to get cold out. The kids won't be able to deal with it much longer. Right now, someone is feeding them, so they're "camping out, man", but eventually they're going to need heat. I really don't see them "hanging out, man" until the 2012 elections. This winter is suppose to get cold with a lot of snow.
The 60's hippies were given free food for awhile, but that wore off eventually. Most of them were left homeless, hungry, and drug addicted. They ended up dyeing on the street as nomads. These kids are no where near as desperate, because they really don't have a cause. Free welfare Playstations isn't that bad. They've got warm welfare beds and their moms have warm welfare food waiting for them at home.
Vladimir Ilyich Lenin, Communist quotes:
"Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted."
Karl Marx:
"The education of all children, from the moment that they can get along without a mother's care, shall be in state institutions at state expense "
The NEA MUST be the first bureaucracy to go when we take over in 2012. The communists are teaching our children now, and it's time the NEA became a dark foot note in American history.
Van jones:
George soros money with black panther attitude.
