Your Daily Politics Video Blog: The closing keynote speaker of the Netroots Nation convention in Austin last month was environmental and social justice activist Van Jones. Following his Sunday morning speech TPMtv caught up with Mr. Jones and asked him about the perception of the environmental movement in the black community and how to alter that perception for the better in creating a full-blown eco-populism movement.

    "Green economy's" like Spain's, the Greenest economy of the EU, have utterly failed. People hate his ideas and vision, justifiably so.

  • Can't understand how the Republicans can show so much hatred here to someone they never met but still think they'll get into heaven. !?!?

  • F U VAN JONES!

  • @wok762x Far behind? Yet they are the first humans on the planet. Real smart! Also the very word "human" is defined as "hue"=color and "man" meaning man of color. So who is really still evolving Mr Caveman with no history prior to 700 B.C.

  • @thc2468 Grow up. I forgot the "R" just like you forgot the "M" in comment. This makes you look like an idiot. HAHAHA!!! Talk about the log in someone's eye!

  • @caddy1010 first of all its universities not "univesties" . please expand on your coment about the first universities being in africa .

  • @LarryHarveyMusic GOD ASSASINATED TED KENNEDY HAHAHA

  • Isn't that sweet. Just like with Al Gore, Van Jones is attempting to build himself an empire (like a corporation) of sucking off the government in promoting what doesn't exist. Now, I'm not saying Van Jones is ignorant. He just knows so much that isn't so.

  • van jones is a communist.Plain and simple.You're people are young.You don't get it. We know what ppl like Van Jones did back in the 60's. He's crazy enough to be dangerous especially when people think he's "brillant" He's not.He's talking nonsense.

  • Van Jones is a self avowed Communist. watch?v=RXd3nZhlJNU . watch?v=LzQb42A1Nqs The next few decades will determine whether the Human Species is a locust species that will scour this planet to the bones…” . “Need change on a revolutionary scale to survive as a species.” . watch?v=bgKr480RYc4. Obama's Former Green Jobs Czar and Communist, Van Jones Admits Left is 'PRETENDING' Need for Regulations in Green Movement
