Why do all my passenger windows in a 2001 Dodge Ram Van frost up when running my defroster to clear windshield It has to be on full and can't see out of any window except the front in the winter?

Probably an air leak somewhere. Try cracking that window just a tad, sometimes helps.

Is there anyone out there that can explain why the windshield of a car is always the first ( and often only) vehicle window to frost up and the last window that wants to unfrost?
The car is cold; icy cold. You are in the driver's seat, facing forward, and breathing, and your exhaled breath contains about 1% water vapor. Your breath hits the inside of the windshield. The vapor condenses on the cold windshield and freezes. If you were in the back seat or passenger seats facing sideways, those windows might also freeze. However, the windshield defroster should, within a couple of moments, clear up the windows. If you're referring to the outside windows, the windshield is tilted and water vapor can condense and freeze on it as the vapor falls. Your side windows are vertical, or nearly so, and not much water lands on it. Rear windows are tilted, but generally less than the windshield, so they don't frost up as badly.
Does running the AC in winter do anything?
Yes. It is needed to dehumidify the air. Otherwise you can't clear the windows with the defroster very well.

The antenna is embedded in the passenger side window furthest to the rear. It looks a lot like the defroster wires on back windows.

How do you best defrost a 1999 Plymouth Breeze in the mornings in winter so that the windshield defrosts on the outside and doesn't fog up on the inside?
Pour warm/hot water on the windows. It works every time! If the defroster and heating units are working correctly I don't understand why the inside windshield would still be fogged up. I have a 2000 Plymouth Breeze and the owners manual says when using the defroster be sure the the vent control knob is turned to outside air position. Hopefully this will work. NEVER!!! EVER!!! EVEEEEERRRRR!!!!!! pour hot water on your cold windshield! The temperature change WILL pop your windshield.
Air conditioning only goes through windshield vent and not the other vents?
Most vehicles have settings that allow for circulated air to function as a defroster, cooler, or heater, and can be adjusted to come out by the feet, the multi-directional vents (around chest level), and those near the windshield and windows (or sometimes a combination of those locations). The only setting where the air is only blown by the windshield is defrost.
