The Tea Party in general, and the Crystal Coast Tea Party Patriots in particular, is a grassroots movement that began by calling attention to governmental over-reach in the form of the TARP, the auto industry bailouts, and the Federal government’s toleration of the too-big-to-fail mindset.

The CCTPP membership favors a high degree of national security, guaranteed by a strong military.  We believe in American exceptionalism and we embrace a sense of an inviolable national sovereignty.  We believe in the American tradition of self-reliance, loyalty, and individualism.  And, in common with our peers at TeaParty.org, we believe that our membership “… includes those who possess a strong belief in the foundational Judeo-Christian values embedded in our great founding documents.  We believe the responsibility of our beloved nation is etched upon the hearts of true American Patriots from every race, religion, national origin, and walk of life, [all] sharing a common belief in the values which made and keep our beloved nation great.”
