Van Jones. Certainly a “controversial” character in the news for the last two years. My question for you is what political leanings, come to mind, if any, when you see or hear “Van Jones?an Jones. Certainly a “controversial” character in the news for the last two years. My question for you is what political leanings, come to mind, if any, when you see or hear “Van Jones?” After all, its best not to judge someone by anything but their own words and actions. This Sunday last, whilst cruising through my favorite source of all, the Huffington Post, I took a “double take”. No, wait, that can’t be right. I moved my cursor back to where it says “American Dream” and “Van Jones”.
I don’t know about you, but the “American Dream”, when I hear the term, I think of the mass legal immigration of the 1860′s to about 1920. I guess, I get an image in my head of those poor Irish coming because of the potato famine, those coming for religious freedom, or any person, from anywhere at any time in our history who became hopeful. Yes, hopeful. They lived in a system of tyranny of many ilks, under many different names, but really all the same.
