They're really going to love it when Van Jones gains the WH. I almost wish Hillary could/would tap him for VP so he'd have an even better chance in '24. These people will have a hissy fit. They'll pine for the good old days when Barack Obama was their worst nightmare. I think by then the country might be ready for Van Jones, and if he's already been VP for 8 years, then his youthful political escapades will be relatively meaningless. To most people. The nutbaggers will always hate him regardless.

By the way, in '24 I'll also be 86; let them shame themselves throwing empty beer bottles at me then. It won't be the lesson they intend. I might even take up using a walker just for effect once in awhile, whether I need it or not. Good prop. Could be a good self defense weapon too, if necessary.
