It would be false to assume that a majority of protesters at Town Hall Meetings and Tea Party Rallies are racist. On the contrary, the majority of of protester are well versed and educated in their party politics, holding fast to core party values, while engaging in civil discourse and debate of the issues.

Ideologies all parties share is a committed to keeping our nation safe and expanding opportunity for every American, along with economic growth, affordable health care for all Americans, retirement security, open, honest and accountable government, and securing our nation while protecting our civil rights and liberties of all Americans.  However, how to best implement these ldeologies has always been up for political, and party, debate.  Debate, and protest, is good for America politics, as long as the discourse is civil, non-violent, and non-racial.

Althought and minority, there are "Fringe Elements" who express themselves openly at many of the recent Town Hall Meetings and Tea Party RalliesNo one believes there is large contingency of protestors at town hall meetings and Tea Party rallies that are racist, rather a small fringe blended in this way:

• 20% Staunch Republicans, who depend on their information by “research”
• 40% Republicans who depend on their information by “word of mouth”
• 30% Born into republican family. “Do as your told”
• 5% Ethnic/ Cultural followers. Loyalties based on fear and ignorance.
• 5% Racist Fringe. Loyalties based on anger and racism.
