re: #266 Sharmuta

My point is we need to learn how to organize ourselves. So far I’m seeing EPIC FAIL.

Exactly. And, unfortunately, that organization efforts means that an organization has to be formed -501c(3) or some formal body on a local or national level. This creates a formal framework for fundraising as well as for supporting and assisting on the local permits and requirements for insurance.

We are in a society that has little hesitation to use litigation to gain from others - and as a result, organizations are needed to provide a degree of insulation and protection to individuals.

What I would like to see is the RNC take a far stronger organizing and supporting role in these tea party demonstrations. Of course, that would mean that they would have to take sides and piss off some of their current members / elected officials who are profitting from doing things the same old way.
