We The People

The First Coast Tea Party’s mission is to promote the principles of our founding fathers – individual liberty and responsibility, limited government and moral leadership.

We believe our mission statement is concise, focused and hopefully speaks to ALL Americans.

The tea party movement strives to embrace the concerns of all Americans, to focus on the issues, to inform the electorate of the activities of “our” government and to share ideas on how to restore our country to a constitutional footing intended by our founding fathers.

Those Americans who participate in the Tea Party Movement are free thinkers and individuals who want to be a part of “their” government, regain their liberties and fulfill the God given promises set forth in the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence.

The tea party movement places no labels on anyone and is open to all who share our mission and want to have a voice in America’s future.

We are a nonprofit, grassroots group comprised of Americans of all walks of life who contribute their individual skills to the effort. Our primary tools are personal conversations, letters, rallies, visits to the offices of elected officials, telephone calls, discussion groups, educational and informational sessions, media coverage, news releases and independent Tea Party groups.

We are NOT affiliated with any political parties or interest groups.

The First Coast Tea Party founded in Jacksonville, Florida is powered by participants who volunteer sincerely in the movement.

We are patriots who believe elected officials are sworn to serve the country and their constituents transparently. They should be motivated by a desire to preserve and protect America and to uphold the principles that assure ALL Americans of thier constitutional rights, including life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

We are proud to be Americans and firmly believe in its youth and its future.

For those wanting to be more involved, the Duval GOP has asked for assistance.

We need local volunteers in Jacksonville to assist us at the city's largest Republican precincts on Tuesday, January 31st. These volunteers will be assigned to the largest Republican Precincts to ask Republican voters to fill out a 'Volunteer Card' for the November 2012 General Election.

The 'Volunteer Card' will record the names and contact information of those Republican voters who are willing to assist us as we prepare for the November General Election.

To defeat Obama in November we will need these volunteers for voter registration, precinct walks, phone banks, poll watching, sign waving and the 72-Hour final push.

If you can help to cover one of the key Republican precincts on Tuesday, January 31st please e-mail your name, contact phone numbers and how many hours you can help on January 31st.

Even if can only cover at two or three-hour shift your help could make the difference!

Robin Lumb, Vice Chair

Republican Party of Duval County

To volunteer for January 31st please contact Robin Lumb by clicking here

Well that is the problem then because you can't have it both ways. Either the rules of state always usurp the rules of a church or they never do. A woman was denied her civil rights because a "church" denied them. SCOTUS said nothing…

The Real Reason Florida Delegates Were Cut In Half

New Republican primary rules are going to make it basically impossible for any candidate to wrap up the Republican nomination very early in 2012. In fact, the new Republican primary rules make a "brokered convention" much more likely and they also make it much more likely that the Republican establishment will attempt to steal the nomination away from a candidate that they do not like. How exactly they would do this will be discussed later in the article. The key is that most Republican…See More

I glad you see what I had been trying to tell Jack for so long... What really bothers me is that "conservatives" can't see that there is really only one conservative candidate!

Ok, I see my error. There are currently 1683 votes left. So only Ron Paul, or Mitt could get the needed number to win. So it is important for voters to stop throwing their votes away, or they will end up with a brokered…
