In Visual Studio Add In - How to Get the Properties of a Text Selector (Visual Commander)

I scratched my head over this day:

Essentially, I'm trying to create an add-in for Visual Studio 2012 that does the following:

Take the variable name that is currently selected, and find the class that is the instance, then enter veriable.property for each property in its line:

BEFORE:

eg. (Select myPerson)

int CountPerson(Person myPerson)
{
    *myPerson*
}

AFTER:

int CountPerson(Person myPerson)
{
    myPerson.Name
    myPerson.Surname
    myPerson.Age
}

I asked a similar question here on stackoverflow and got the answer that I am pursuing right now. Visual Studio resets all class properties to the editor

Here is the source code:

using EnvDTE;
using EnvDTE80;
using System;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Collections.ObjectModel;


public class C : VisualCommanderExt.ICommand
{
    public void Run(EnvDTE80.DTE2 DTE, Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Package package) 
    {
        EnvDTE.TextSelection ts = DTE.ActiveWindow.Selection as EnvDTE.TextSelection;
        if (ts == null)
            return;

        EnvDTE.CodeClass codeClass = ts.ActivePoint.CodeElement[vsCMElement.vsCMElementClass]   as     EnvDTE.CodeClass;
        if (codeClass == null)
            return;

        string properties = "";
        foreach (CodeElement elem in codeClass.Members)
        {
            if (elem.Kind == vsCMElement.vsCMElementProperty)
                properties += elem.Name + System.Environment.NewLine;
        }
        ts.Text = properties;   

    }
}

This works just fine, except that it completely ignores the selected text and prints the properties of the current class instead. I need the class properties of the variable that I select.

"Person" "myPerson", .
