What Does The Tea Party Actually Stand For?

Bradley Jay hit the Boston Common for the Patriots Day Tea Party protest.
It was a contentiuos affair and tempers flared in a verbal confrontation between Tea Party supporters and anti-Tea Party forces. One Tea Party member accused a protester of actually being a member of the elite one per cent because her parents are paying for her expensive education. Anti-Tea Party members expressed concerns that the Tea Party is dragging the United States back to the dark ages when it comes to social issues.

Bradley Jay asked the same question of both sides. "What does the Tea Party actually stand for?" Watch the video to see the answers.
