About Tea Party Nation (www.teapartynation.com):

Last February, Judson Phillips organized a tea party in downtown Nashville, TN for a crowd of 600. On April 15, he joined forces with other tea party organizers across the nation and held a second Tea Party in downtown Nashville, drawing a crowd of 10,000. He founded Tea Party Nation that April hoping to be a connecting thread between conservatives and those involved in the Tea Party movement.

Since that time, Tea Party Nation has grown and continues to grow into a force to be reckoned with in the 2010 and 2012 elections. Tea Party Nation is a user-driven group of like-minded people who desire our God-given individual freedoms written by our founding fathers. We believe in limited government, free speech, the Second Amendment, our military, secure borders and our country. We are doing together what we could not do alone, to preserve that which we value.
