Why was Van Jones, the radical, extreme leftist anti-American, African Nationalist even considered to be a part of the Obama administration? Why is there no reporting on the background of Van Jones in the main stream media? (Please see the video below)

I think most of us know the answers to these questions - Obama wants to, “fundamentally change America” - apparently into a socialist nation with the complicit help of CBS, NBC, ABC, The New York Times and other major sources of news.

From an article posted on FoxNews.com

“I met all these young radical people of color — I mean really radical, communists and anarchists. And it was like, ‘This is what I need to be a part of,’” he said in a 2005 interview with the East Bay Express. Jones told the newspaper he stayed in San Francisco, and for the next 10 years worked with a lot of the people he met in jail. Months after the King verdict came down, Jones said, “I was a communist.”

At the time he became involved with a group called Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement (STORM), which described itself as committed to Marxist and Leninist ideas. He also started putting pressure on police in San Francisco, monitoring and drawing attention to allegations of police brutality. He was quoted accusing the police department of “killing black people.”

Just the comment, “I was a communist” is enough for me….why not for Obama?
