Obama's Green Jobs Czar - Van Jones

In April 2009, Obama appointed Van Jones his Green Jobs Advisor (Czar). Van Jones has a history of involvement in, and even founding of, leftist social action community groups particularly with an interest in what he views as environmental justice. The best testament to Van Jones' philosophy and intent is to READ VAN JONES OWN WORDS.
VAN JONES
: "In jail 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. I spent the next 10 years (1992-2002) of my life working with a lot of those people I met in jail, trying to be a revolutionary'.... I was a rowdy nationalist on April 28th (1992), and then the verdicts came down on April 29th... by August (1992), I was a communist."
VAN JONES: from a 2005 interview: "I'M WILLING TO FORGO THE CHEAP SATISFACTION OF THE RADICAL POSE FOR THE DEEP SATISFACTION OF RADICAL ENDS."
VAN JONES: "The white polluters and the white environmentals are essentially steering poison into the people of colored communities."
VAN JONES: from a March 2009 speech "This movement is deeper than a solar panel. Deeper than a solar panel. Don't stop there. Don't stop there. No, we're going to change the whole system. We're going to change the whole thing. We're not going to put a new battery in a broken system. We want a new system. We want a new system."
In April 2009, Obama appoints Van Jones as his Green jobs Advisor (Czar) and presents him as some sort of transformed capitalist who will use stimulus money for economic growth.
What we have is Van Jones posing for radical ends.
