Highlights
Perspective of the last several years i.e. what's been going on behind the scenes of the beltway media;
"The Koch Brothers" - Article

The Tea Party Started In 2007 And Ron Paul Is The Godfather
News footage from 2007 mixed with other video that documents the origin of the modern day Tea Party movement and those responsible for it.
It was started in 2007 from the grassroots by Ron Paul supporters for his 2008 Presidential Campaign. After gaining momentum it was co-opted by certain Republicans with help from Fox News and other corporate entities. It's no longer the spontaneous decentralized movement that it once was though Ron Paul's message of limited government and a return to the Constitution is still at it's core.
