Someone forgot to tell this buffoon how little he matters...

[benallen12]

We have to get out of this red team/blue team, left/right, liberal/conservative paradigm. We are all individuals with individual rights. These rights exist regardless of religion, race, gender or nationality. Rights are not something to be given nor taken away, and they don't come from government.

[MrRickywallace]

Piece of communist feces, we despise you. Start a business, and then maybe you'll understand what capitalism is.

[AustinKnightOwner]

Van Jones seems to want more government, a bigger role for government to play in the lives of us all. This is the exact opposite of what this country was founded. So when he calls for you to fight back, people who want less government will do just that. The lie is that he calls for socialist ideals and wraps himself in a patriotic blanket. He doesn't ask: what you can for our country but ask rather what you can take from its people and businesses? Educated? No he's indoctrinated.
