Oh for sure, I won't even argue that. But to me, when the majority (or at least a large sum) of a political movement's supporters are... questionable, on a race relations level - there's just damage there that's beyond repair. I don't think anybody will look at the Tea Party movement without those images of racism and cringe worthy "AMERICA!!" ignorant slogans.
