Jul 14, 2010 at 6:57 PM From the Christian Science Monitor, a statistic very inconvenient to those who call the Tea Parties racist:
...It is true that the demographics of tea party groups are overwhelmingly white, according to polls. A recent Gallup survey found that 79 percent of tea party supporters are non-Hispanic whites. Only six percent are non-Hispanic blacks.America is becoming a country in which people are judged by the content of the character and not the color of their skin, and the NAACP just can't stand it.A Gallup analysis notes, however, that these figures are not wildly different from the representation of these groups in the population as a whole...
