Van Jones to Democratic Party: ‘The Clinton Days Are Over'
"You’re going to be judged based on your authentic commitment to the actual base of this party. And if you don’t do that, you can’t win.”

In a panel discussion about the future of the Democratic Party on CNN’s State of the Union Sunday morning, political commentator and former Obama adviser Van Jones urged the party to move beyond Clinton moderation and exhibit a more "authentic commitment to the actual base of this party" -- or keep losing elections.
In the clip provided by Mediaite above, former Democratic Montana Governor Brian Schweitzer first blamed Democrat support for trade deals and Obamacare for eroding support in the heartland. Then ex-Clinton aide Karen Finney said there was a need to build grassroots organizing in the red states. Then Jones spoke up, noting that there was some budding talent in the Democratic party like gun confiscation fanatic and new California Senator Kamala Harris, and Muslim Brotherhood shill Keith Ellison.
"Former" Communist Jones then declared that Hillary and Bill Clinton’s influence on the party needed to be jettisoned.
“The Clinton days are over,” said Jones. “This idea that we’re going to be this moderate party that’s going to move in this direction, that’s going to throw blacks under the bus for criminal justice reform and — or for — for prison expansion, that’s going to throw workers under the bus for NAFTA, those days are over.”
“You can’t run and hide," he continued. "You’ve got to be an authentic person from the beginning. You’re going to be judged based on your authentic commitment to the actual base of this party. And if you don’t do that, you can’t win.”
Astonishingly, we at TruthRevolt agree with Jones. We want to encourage the Democratic Party to abandon the political center and tilt even further left, exposing themselves as the radicals they are.
