I’ve seen how the local Tea Party groups engage in personality conflicts. The Tea Party will never grow in influence if it doesn’t learn to function as a larger, cohesive organization. And larger groups do require some kind of executive leadership put in place by the support of the membership. You cannot make decisions by a committee of thousands.

Well, they could make a thousand decisions, all simultaneously.

"The Tea Party will never grow in influence if it doesnt learn to function as a larger, cohesive organization. And larger groups do require some kind of executive leadership put in place by the support of the membership."
The national Tea Party Patriots have coordinators that poll members from local groups and issue statements based on those poll results. The model of organizational structure that many of us are following is based on the book: "The Starfish and the Spider: The Unstoppable Power of Leaderless Organizations". It does a good job of refuting the notion that a movement needs a central leadership to be successful. In fact, the author comes to exactly the opposite conclusion.
