Here are some of the worst things about Van Jones that are not being reported broadly, even now. All of this links to the original sources are listed with links below

After arrested during the Rodney King riots in LA...“Jones had planned to move to Washington, DC, and had already landed a job and an apartment there. But in jail, he said, "I met all these young radical people of color -- I mean really radical, communists and anarchists. And it was, like, 'This is what I need to be a part of.'" Although he already had a plane ticket, he decided to stay in San Francisco. "I spent the next ten years of my life working with a lot of those people I met in jail, trying to be a revolutionary." In the months that followed, he let go of any lingering thoughts that he might fit in with the status quo. "I was a rowdy nationalist on April 28th, and then the verdicts came down on April 29th," he said. "By August, I was a communist." In 1994, the young activists formed a socialist collective, Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement, or STORM, [co-founded with a member of the weather underground] which held study groups on the theories of Marx and Lenin and dreamed of a multiracial socialist utopia.”

Van Jones named his one year old son after African Communist AMILCAR CABRAL. You can read a tribute to this man on the website of The South African Communist Party here: http://www.sacp.org.za/docs/history/dadoo-19.html

&&&&&&&&&&&

See a PDF of STORM’s [Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement, or STORM, [co-founded with a member of the weather underground] own document speaking of its history and actions published in 2004. Van Jones was a founding member and leader of this group in Berkley/Oakland. Note the following:
Page 24 – In referring to STORM’s “ new constitution,” “The new structure created a Marxist-committed Core within a broadly revolutionary General Membership. We did this to maintain the centrality and leadership of revolutionary Marxism while making space for revolutionaries of all stripes to join and participate in STORM’s General Membership.”
“Our new Points of Unity represented an unorthodox and somewhat eclectic form of Marxism. We drew on the strengths of the communist tradition while challenging it to place a greater priority on gender, race, democracy, and mass organizing. Specifically, we upheld revolutionary democracy, revolutionary feminism, revolutionary internationalism, the central role of the working class, urban Marxism and Third World Communism. Page 25 – “we decided to initiate four working groups” including “Workers Organized to Rid us of Capitalism” and “Revolutionary Youth Movement (Rym, pronounced Rhyme).

[NOTE, this is the day after 911 attack. The report is on the 13th of September 2001]
“A recurring theme of the speakers was the brutal violence committed by or supported by the United States government on a daily basis.” "The bombs the government drops in Iraq are the bombs that blew up in New York City," said Van Jones, director of the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights….”
http://corner.nationalreview.com/post/?q=OGJkZWQ4NWI3NWJlZTljOWI5OTRhMDI3OGM1NjU0MjE=

&&&&&&&&&&&

See the excerpts from an album Van Jones produced, including rants against Israel, produced by Van Jones organization the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights. The "host" speaking the voice over is Mumia Abu-Jamal who is a convicted cop-killer sitting on death row in California.

Including... Various Singers-Poets: The American way, manufactured by these white folks in office. By these rich men here to mock us. The United States is a stolen land led by right-wing, war hungry, oil thirsty. And when it's all said and done they still can't clean their own place because they got people of color playing servant to do that sh*t for them... The true terrorists are made in the US, in this police state... The US is a crack-fiend for oil. And they're ready to rape, kill, assault, rob anybody and everybody...

Bombing babies in the night. Two wrongs don't make a right... The US needs to exit its colonies in Iraq, in the region and finally in Israel.

Van Jones: At this point. The end of the occupation. The right of return of the Palestinian people. These are critical dividing lines in human rights. We have to be here. No American would put up with an Israeli-style occupation of their hometown for 53 days let alone 54 years. US tax dollars are funding violence against people of color inside the US borders and outside the US borders.

Van Jones audio from "Uprising Radio" where he states that the green movement will be used to "go beyond systems of exploitation and oppression all together." "So the green economy will start off as a small subset, and we're going to push it and push it and push it, until it becomes the engine for transforming the whole society."

Then, after all this, you must watch this video. This lady is Obama's right hand he brought with him from Chicago. In the video she clearly states they were watching him and his ideas for years before they pulled him into the white house.

Obama knew he was bringing in this radical Marxist into the white house. What does that tell you about Obama?

Van Jones became a revolutionary communist during the 1992 L.A./Rodney King Riots (58 dead)

From David Horowitz's FrontpageMag.com /DiscoverTheNetworks.org:

"Throughout its history, one of RCP's [Revolutionary Communist Party] principal objectives has been to foment civil unrest in the United States. The most notable example of such efforts occurred on April 29, 1992, when RCP members looted and trashed the downtown and government districts of Los Angeles, triggering the infamous Rodney King riots. During the days immediately preceding the violence, RCP -- which maintained close ties to the L.A. gangs known as the Crips and the Bloods -- had circulated throughout South Central Los Angeles a leaflet featuring a statement by RCP National Spokesman Carl Dix, titled 'It's Right To Rebel' -- a quote popularized by Mao Zedong.

Encouraged by Dix, RCP activists helped lead the riots that would leave 58 people dead, more than 2,300 people injured, some 5,300 buildings burned, and $1 billion in property damaged or destroyed. On the ten-year anniversary of the rioting, RCP member Joseph Veale fondly recalled the violence as 'the most beautiful, the most heroic civil action in the history of the United States.'"

From David Horowitz's
FrontPageMag.com/DiscoverTheNetworks.org

PROFILE: VAN JONES

Born in 1968 in rural West Tennessee, Van Jones earned a B.A. degree from the University of Tennessee at Martin and then attended Yale Law School. During his years at Yale, Jones served as an intern with the San Francisco-based Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights (LCCR), which views the United States as an irredeemably racist nation and "champions the legal rights of people of color, poor people, immigrants and refugees, with a special commitment to African-Americans."

Jones says that he first became politically radicalized in the aftermath of the deadly April 1992 Los Angeles riots which erupted shortly after four L.A. police officers who had beaten the infamous Rodney King were exonerated in court. "I was a rowdy nationalist on April 28th," says Jones, who is black, "and then the verdicts came down on April 29th. By August, I was a communist."

Jones was arrested during the L.A. riots and spent a short time in jail. "I met all these young radical people of color," he recalls, "I mean really radical: communists and anarchists. And it was, like, 'This is what I need to be a part of.' I spent the next ten years of my life working with a lot of those people I met in jail, trying to be a revolutionary."

After earning his Juris Doctorate from Yale in 1993, Jones relocated to San Francisco, where he helped establish Bay Area PoliceWatch, a hotline and lawyer-referral service that began as a project of LCCR. In 1996 he founded the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights, which, claiming that the American criminal-justice system is infested with racism, seeks to promote alternatives to incarceration. According to the Baker Center:

"Decades of disinvestment in our cities have led to despair and hopelessness. For poor communities and communities of color it's even worse, as excessive, racist policing and over-incarceration have left people even further behind."

By the late 1990s, Jones was a committed Marxist-Leninist-Maoist who viewed police officers as the arch-enemies of black people, and who loathed capitalism for allegedly exploiting nonwhite minorities worldwide. He became a leading member of Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement (STORM), a now-defunct Bay Area Marxist-Maoist collective that was staffed by members of various local nonprofits, a number of whom had ties to the Ella Baker Center.

In the early 2000s, Jones and STORM were active in the anti-Iraq War demonstrations organized by International ANSWER, a front group for the Marxist-Leninist Workers World Party. STORM also had ties to the South African Communist Party and it revered Amilcar Cabral, the late Marxist revolutionary leader (of Guinea-Bissau and the Cape Verde Islands) who lauded Lenin as "the greatest champion of the national liberation of the peoples." (In 2006 Van Jones would name his own newborn son "Cabral" -- in Amilcar Cabral's honor.)

During his tenure with STORM, Jones collaborated on numerous projects (including antiwar demonstrations) with local activist Elizabeth "Betita" Martinez, who served as a "mentor" for members of the Ella Baker Center. Martinez was a longtime Maoist who went on to join the Committees of Correspondence for Democracy and Socialism (CCDS), a Communist Party USA splinter group, in the early 1990s. To this day, Martinez continues to sit on the CCDS advisory board alongside such luminaries as Angela DavisTimuel Black (who served on Barack Obama's 2004 Senate campaign committee), and musician Pete Seeger. Martinez is also a board member of the Movement for a Democratic Society, the parent organization of Progressives for Obama. Martinez and Van Jones together attended a "Challenging White Supremacy" workshop which advanced the theme that "all too often, the unconscious racism of white activists stands in the way of any effective, worthwhile collaboration" with blacks.

In 2005 Jones and the Ella Baker Center produced the "Social Equity Track" for the United Nations' World Environment Day celebration, a project that eventually would evolve into the Baker Center's Green-Collar Jobs Campaign -- "a job-training and employment pipeline providing 'green pathways out of poverty' for low-income adults in Oakland."

Soon after attending the Clinton Global Initiative in September 2007, Jones launched "Green For All," a non-governmental organization "dedicated to building an inclusive green economy strong enough to lift people out of poverty … advocating for local, state and federal commitment to job creation, job training, and entrepreneurial opportunities in the emerging green economy - especially for people from disadvantaged communities."

In 2008 Jones published his first book, The Green Collar Economy, which focused on environmental and economic issues. The book received favorable reviews from such notables as Al GoreNancy PelosiLaurie DavidWinona LaDuke, environmentalist Paul Hawken, and NAACP President/CEO Ben Jealous.

Jones has served as a board member of numerous environmental and nonprofit organizations, including the Rainforest Action NetworkFree Press; Bioneers (which accepts the United Nations Millennium Ecosystem Report's warning that "[h]uman activity is putting such strain on the natural functions of Earth that the ability of the planet's ecosystems to sustain future generations can no longer be taken for granted"); the National Apollo Alliance (which seeks "to catalyze a clean energy revolution that will put millions of Americans to work in a new generation of high-quality, green-collar jobs"); the Social Venture Network (which aims "to build a just economy and sustainable planet"); and Julia Butterfly Hill's "Circle of Life" environmental foundation.

Jones was also a Senior Fellow with the Center for American Progress and a Fellow at the Institute of Noetic Sciences.

In March 2009, President Barack Obama named Jones to be his so-called "Green Jobs Czar." Jones' formal title is "Special Advisor for Green Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation" for the White House Council on Environmental Quality.

In a July 2009 interview with Newsweek magazine, Jones said he could not explain exactly what a "green job" is:

"Well, we still don't have a unified definition, and that's not unusual in a democracy. It takes a while for all the states and the federal government to come to some agreement. But the Department of Labor is working on it very diligently. Fundamentally, it's getting there, but we haven't crossed the finish line yet."

With the “Newsweek” article detailing how white kids are to be trained to be self loathing of their race while black kids are to be instilled with pride for theirs, it should be understood that the Left in this country is OBSESSED with race. This is a huge mistake on their part and weak spot politically.

Van Jones jumped real quick....There must be volumes.

Obama's problem is keeping "connections" hidden.

I'm sure if we went back to Rev Wrong's church...we'd find many more cruds.

Van Jones looks to be of the same cloth.

This is Chicago politics all the way. We've got the gd mob in the Whitehouse!!

>Obama knew he was bringing in this radical Marxist into the white house. What does that tell you about Obama?

It just reaffirms what I knew to be true:
Hussain Obama is a Marxist, reparation supporting pile of dog feces and wants to “change” America into his socialist utopia.

America has stepped in worse steaming piles, but none so supported by traitorous citizens in this great country.

All this is easy to find out. What’s hard to uncover is exactly what he’s ever done to qualify him to work as the “green jobs” czar...and how much he was getting paid for it.

Glenn Beck said most, if not all, about him in his Fox News program. Otherwise, Fox left most of it off. Why?

And, the most telling of it all was this: Obama has known him for years, as I understand it, yet appointed anyway. All Fox would say is to complain about the administration’s bad vetting. Isn’t it worst that Obama appointed ]Van Jones KNOWING all these things he did and said?

I saw a video of that Jarrett woman saying that they couldn't wait for obama to "RULE" the USA. She actually used the word rule.

Our local station’s morning news dutifully reported that he’d resigned, suggesting it was because he called Republicans a bad name—no mention, anywhere, of his COMMUNISM. The news (actually a feed from NBC) actually insinuated that the mean ol’ Republicans ran him out of office, probably because of his color. Fox isn’t perfect, but it’s better than anything else we have...for now.

" I mean really radical, communists and anarchists. And it was, like, 'This is what I need to be a part of.'"

And this led him to him joining forces with Hussein's ultra-radical cabal.

Makes sense.
