I have been to four Tea Party rallies and at every one there was at least one black speaker who came to the podium. One of the best speeches came from a young black man who had dreadlocks in his hair and looked like anything but a conservative but he stood up for the constitution like few speakers ever do. One black former Marine spoke at three of the meetings, he is someone I have been acquainted with for years, he came to my house once, he is as solidly conservative as anyone you could know.

And all this happened in the,”Cradle of the Confederacy”.

Well sure, I’ve been to several Tea Party meetings in which there were blacks in attendance, and one it which a black man even spoke, but that is not the point.

My comment was directed to this black woman’s OWN thesis of “Yes, the Tea Party movement is overwhelmingly white”.
