Van Jones is back with a message for disappointed progressives, Occupy Wall Street and other post-Hope Democrats still looking to President Barack Obama for the change they voted for in 2008: Get over it.
I think you need two sources of power to make change, and not just one. I think you need a head of state thats willing to be moved, and a movement to do the moving, said Jones, the former West Wing insider-turned-disillusioned outsider and a lightning rod for conservative critics.
Thats the gist of Jones new book, Rebuild the Dream, his blueprint for grassroots action to restore the economy as well as attempt to turn Obama into the kind of president they want. The book is a companion piece to Jones activities since leaving the White House and his new rock-star status within the progressive movement. Hes in town to sell his vision for a new liberal strategy almost as much as the book, which comes to stores Tuesday.
Liberals must work hard to give Obama a second term, then force him to the left, Jones explained.

The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
If Obama goes any further left he’ll be in Russia
I believe in the two term system. One in office and one term in JAIL!
LOL!
Just when the hell was "the dream" built in the first place?
I always though a "dream" was an illusion brought on by slumber.
I had a movement this morning that kind of looked like Van Jones.
I’ll say it! FUVJ!!
"Van Jones: Left should re-elect, then push Obama ___ __ _____"
What’s worse for the Nation:
A 2nd Obama term or a 1st Mitt term?
Let them waste their time spinning their wheels!
It's like trying to force a concrete wall to turn to concrete!
A 2nd Obama term or a 1st Mitt term?
Well, I have been told that no matter who it is, "it's our job to hold their feet to the fire" and MAKE them do what is right!
I'm sure then all will be as right as rain.../MS
Van Jones should be pushed......over a cliff
“If Obama goes any further left hell be in Russia”

Maybe true 25 years ago, but in case you did not get the memo, Russia and central Europe are no longer Communist.
“Let them waste their time spinning their wheels!
It’s like trying to force a concrete wall to turn to concrete!”

I wish that were true, but it isn’t.
American society and culture is moving to the left at breakneck speed.
The two most influential elements of American society, media and education, are under almost total control by the Communist.
The election of the Marxist messiah is quite telling.
If the trend is not stopped soon, it will be all over for the America that I grew up in.
Jones seems to have the I.Q. of a grapefruit
The communist is already:
* Gutting US defenses
* Unilaterally giving up our nukes and space capabilities
* Destroying the US dollar
* Making energy completely unaffordable
* Trying to control our bodies and lives via unconstitutional laws
* Crushing the nation with endless debt that will lead to financial collapse
* Ruining the military via repeal of DADT
* Preventing the DOJ from dealing with ANY black crime
* Handing out big bucks to his crony capitalist pals who then recycle the money back to him in campaign “contributions”
* Inciting race and gender wars
And this Jones wants to push the pedal even harder? God help us.
