Author and Tea Party member Kevin Jackson talks to Bill O'Reilly about the "bogus" claims that the Tea Party is an all-white movement. Jackson said he has appeared at approximately 80 rallies since appearing at the first Tea Party back in April of last year and he has seen "zero racial incidents." He added, "The Left is just trying to demonize a movement."

Its not the fault of whites that few blacks attend. They’re quite welcome to walk of the democrat plantation. They just won’t get any special treatment.
I like Kevin Jackson a lot.
He’s very impressive.
Kevin did an outstanding job of holding his ground with BOR and defending the Tea Party movement. It was Democrat Dixiecrats who fought the passage of the Civil Rights Bill. It is we Conservatives who defend the principle that a man should be judged by the content of his character and not by the color of his skin.
I like him too. I stumbled on him by accident, he has a site, I think it’s the black sphere...anyway, I donated to him. http://theblacksphere.net/
Kevin Jackson is outrageous in all the right (and the correct) ways! Thank God there are still real Americans like him around to stand up and tell the fascists where they get off.
It is, he has a radio show too and I think there is a link at his web site.
I agree. ....Kevin did a very good job on BOR!
What really gripes me is that so many folks like BOR and articles like this one use the term “Tea Party” as though it’s a separate political party like the Green Party, US Communist Party, etc. BOR even has a “poll” for viewers that is asking something about the “Tea Party”.
Kevin frequently used the terms “Tea Party movement” or “Tea Parties” (in reference to the rallies).
I’ve noticed that what are apparently Harry Reid supporters in Nevada were able to get enough petition signatures to have an official “Tea Party” added to the ballots. There hopes, I’m sure, were to have the public think that third party was supported by the Tea Party movement (which is not true) so they could syphon off votes from the GOP candidate and allow Reid to win re-election.
I’ve emailed BOR to explain the difference in terminology and how it is misleading to make people think there is a political party called the Tea Party. It would help, maybe, if FReepers would email the key program hosts at FNC about this. I don’t believe many supporters of the Tea Party movement watch the lesser broadcast or cable channels, and emails to correct them would be ignored anyway.
Kevin Jackson was good, and I have to admit that I didn’t mind BOR.
