Van Jones: Obama Wouldn't Lose Black Vote If He Came Out As Gay

“I think if President Obama came out as gay, he wouldn't lose the black vote," a cheerful Van Jones told MSNBC this afternoon.

"President Obama is not going to lose the black vote no matter what he does," he added.

What an odd thing for Jones to say: does he know something the rest of us don't?

Is Barack Obama Gay?

As I’ve said before, Obama could kill puppies with a hammer on live TV everyday until November and still keep his core voters.

Racism and marxism win out over every other loyalty for those voters. I’m just surprised that Van Jones is advertising that fact.

"President Obama is not going to lose the black vote no matter what he does," he added.

IOWs Van Jones is saying that skin color is the only thing that matters to blacks.

We thought so, Van, but we didn't want to say it.
You would call us racist if we did of course.
But we are going to say it now because we're getting tired of that.

Hell is freezing over right now.
Finally I agree with Van Jones. . .

Hell is freezing over right now. Finally I agree with Van Jones. . .

Any Democrat would

Why Abe Lincoln was a GOP

Democrats started KKK

Jim Crow laws started and maintained by democrats

Davis-Bacon Law passed by Democrats to discrimainate against Blacks working.

Obama's former "Green Jobs Czar", Van Jones, links "Green Movement" to revolutionary communist movement!

See "Goal is complete revolution" below...

VAN JONES (Obama's former 'Green Jobs Czar')

YouTube:
"Valerie Jarrett, Senior Advisor to President Obama, speaks [lovingly] about Green Job Czar, Van Jones, at the Netroots Convention on August 12, 2009. Then Van Jones speaks about [a COMMUNIST] transforming [of] the whole society."

"Jones was the leader and founder of a radical group, the communist revolutionary organization Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement, or STORM. That group, together with Jones' Elle Baker Center for Human Rights, led a vigil Sept. 12, 2001, at Snow Park in Oakland, Calif.

STORM's official manifesto, titled, "Reclaiming Revolution," surfaced on the Internet."--via TheObamaFile

VAN JONES SHOCK ADMISSION [in his own words]: "Goal is Complete Revolution"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fh4Z0V0zNQg

Here is the transcript of the above YouTube video:

“Right after Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat if the civil rights leaders had jumped out and said OK now we want reparations for Slavery, we want redistribution of all the wealth, and we want to legalize mixed marriages. If we’d come out with a maximum program the very next day, they’d been laughed at. Instead they came out with a very minimum. “We just want to integrate these busses…”

But, inside that minimum demand was a very radical kernel that eventually meant that from 1964 to 1968 complete revolution was on the table for this country.

And, I think that this green movement has to pursue those same steps and stages.

Right now we say we want to move from suicidal gray capitalism to something eco-capitalism where at least we’re not fast-tracking the destruction of the whole planet. Will that be enough? No, it won’t be enough. We want to go beyond the systems of exploitation and oppression all together. But, that’s a process and I think that’s what’s great about the movement that is beginning to emerge is that the CRISIS is so severe in terms of joblessness, violence and now ecological threats that people are willing to be both pragmatic and visionary.

So the green economy will start off as a small subset and we are going to push it and push it and push it until it becomes the engine for transforming the whole society.

Here's the original source for the Van Jones quote about the time he spent in jail following the Rodney King/LA riots (Jones was arrested in "peaceful" protests in San Fran). It was in a 2005 interview he did with East Bay Express. They of course (what else?) claim he "renounced his rowdy Black Nationalist ways" since then (yet he's calling for "complete revolution" in Aug 2009! ...see above):

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."

The 1992 LA/Rodney King riots were instigated by the Revolutionary Communist Party...

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.'"

That comment implies blacks are homophobic.

Drudge-Rhoade's October Surprise?

[Recon Dad]

What does he know and how come he knows it!

Up until now we could only speculate.

[getgo]

IOWs Van Jones is saying that skin color is the only thing that matters to blacks.

Exactly and what is amazing about this is the total ignorance of Van Jones highlighted by this statement. He seems to be bragging about the complete lack of objective or critical thinking ability among blacks. He doesn't realize how bad he is making them look.

[grobdriver]

does he know something the rest of us don't?

I think he's right.
He doesn't know anything in particular (or anything at all, actually).

He's just black. It's what he would do, and what 95% of other blacks will do.

I remember Jesse Jackson saying, “It’s better to hope to get something from Clinton than to actually get it from Bush.”

Black leaders and race pimps have been the overseers of the Democrat Party plantation since LBJ.
