Changes

:Along with some other organizational edits, I added a reference to the ronpaulforums.com page where a news video covering the event was posted.  I also updated the sentence, which was: ''"One earlier manifestation of both the movement and the name occurred in the fall of 2007 when supporters of Ron Paul called for a 'Tea Party 2007' to promote Paul's bid for the presidency and a return to limited federal government."'' I corrected this sentence because the statement "manifestation of both the movement and the name" seems to imply that the TEA Party Movement materialized or manifested itself from the "Tea Party 2007" event, which is not accurate, as I referenced in citations.  The only relation between the two is in their theme.  One of the primary differences between the movement and Ron Paul's Tea Party 2007 rally, although related in theme, is in the use of the backronym "TEA."

:I do not believe Ron Paul's rally used a backronym for the word "Tea"; he and his supporters used the name to describe how their event was a re-enactment of the Boston Tea Party, which was also held to promote Ron Paul's bid for presidency.  The Tea Party Movement is by the American people, not just American people for Ron Paul; it is America's indictment against the ruling class.  Moreover, if Ron Paul's "Tea Party 2007" rally were a real Tea Party Movement protest, then the $6 million in donations received from it would not have gone to only Ron Paul's presidency campaign, it would have gone to the Tea Party Movement.  It would have gone to help support all candidates whose values are in-line with the American people taking part in the movement.  Candidates don't choose the Tea Party, the Tea Party chooses the candidates based on their values.  [[User:DerekE|DerekE]] 18:14, 22 August 2011 (EDT)
