Van Jones--Sr Fellow at Center for American Progress

Van Jones has been scrubbed from Senior Fellow listing, but posting below confirms he was Senior Fellow.

I can't confirm Van Jones was confirmed by Senate, but did see he was confirmed by White House.

Center for American Progress is architect behind planning for much of Obama's corrupt Administration. Headed by John Podesta who also headed up Obama's transition. Note that Tom Daschle is Distinguished Senior Fellow.
