- Clean Coal is not real.
- Felons and Ex-Felons alike should be embraced in his 'green economy'.
- The 'Green Economy' is more about changing our national defense and foreign policy than it is about 'green technology' (see 17:00)

This is why he failed as a presidential advisor and this is why his vision will fail. He does not provide any real concrete plans. He is great at speaking fluff for much of his speeches but is void of any real knowledge or plan on adjusting our economy.

The American public is growing tired of fluff. We've endured 10 months of fluff from our current president and demand concrete plans.

Mr Jones along with many of his contemporary liberal policy makers are falling be the wayside because they fail to develop any real, concrete plans.
