Question:

Why European liberals see election 2010 the tea party as a circus of fools?

Election in America 2010: European media and politicians have called tea partiers stupid, ignorant, gullible and worse. Behind the anger may lay a worry about its influence on the Continent. But I think there must be lot of other reason behind this type of statements. I am wondering why they are criticizing?

As far as my opinion is concern for numerous Europeans, although, anxieties about the tea party center less on how the action will sway what America does and more on what it won't manage in the world. Tea party stalwart Rep. Ron Paul of Texas can only strengthen that worry with his foreign principle philosophy: A come back to the customary US foreign principle of hardworking personal commitment but government non interventionism is the only alternate that can refurbish our lesson and fiscal health. The world desires cooperative authority – authority founded on a will for dialogue in economic principles as well as in other areas, counters Norwegian Labor Party Secretary Raymond Johan-sen on the Huffing-ton Post. Inward-looking austerity and Tea Party populism is not the answer, neither for the US neither for Europe.

I think that the American two-party procedure is essentially foreign to Europeans. US social family has virtually perpetually had disorganized, decentralized movements like the Tea Parties – and they have had a significant impact, drafts John Judi’s in the New Republic. In Europe's multiparty procedures, movements cohere more without difficulty into parties, but in the US, the two-party procedure disheartens the transition from motion to party except when the motion takes over one of the two parties.

I think the accusation that the tea party is a Republican extreme over-fixated on race and the past is at the heart of much of the criticism against the movement in the US. Some Britain’s, retaining on to a decades-old characterization of the previous colonials as gullible and naive, still outlook Americans as obtuse and at times irresponsible upstarts on the international stage. The Financial Times' Clive Crook summed the sentiment up in a Monday pillar about the altering – and, in his outlook, being concerned – dynamics of the American electorate on Election Day. He called the tea party propelled by "pure foolish nativism."
