Tea Party

This is a tea party video made by the Sarah Palin website. In the video we hear her voice in the background explaining what the tea party is all about and what its aims are. The way this video is made it’s made more like a ‘campaign video’ for the tea party, although the tea party isn’t an actual party. At one point in the video she describes the teat party as ‘it is an action that is forcing both parties to change the way that they’re doing business and that’s beautiful’. The way she speaks is very much like many presidents speak; a very positive speech.

The aim of this video is most likely to show people how the tea party activists are only doing this for themselves and don’t want to get involved in any political situations, they just want the current politicians to change their ways. ‘its just so inspiring to see real people, not politicians’ The way Sarah Palin speaks in this video is an obvious sign of the amount of critique that the tea party has already had in the past.

The background music is a very courageous type of music, which they often use while filming speeches, in this way Sarah Palins speech is so much more powerful. In a way this video seems a bit suspicious, the way every single word said in it is completely positive. It makes you think, why are they getting so much critique then?

The video mainly underlines the politics of today and how the tea party is there to make the politics better for the future by nothing other than action and by getting as much people involved as possible.
