New Media  | 24 de marzo de 2011  | Vistas: 51

Matt Kibbe talks about the Tea Party Movement, its ethos, members, and misconceptions and how and why it was initiated; the philosophical and strategic underpinnings to make the Tea Party Movement possible in America. Kibbe points out the importance of social organization and free interaction of individuals in a free society to make possible their demands and limit the government’s decisions. Finally, he talks about FreedomWorks role, what they do and how they work using the teaching of freedom in universities and tools they use as think tanks to translate ideas into policy proposals and the way they have been achieving this through social networks as Twitter, Facebook and many others.
