“Why do we need a leader? This is America, a free country. All politics is local; that’s where I live.”

Your are right.

When folks ask about the Tea Party Movement needing a leader... I wonder if the ever actually read threads on FR. If they like Sarah Palin or Glenn Beck... They should know by now that neither of these people advocate a leader for the movement, and do not wish to be a leader themselves.

Now, we can lead by example, and that is a different thing. Glenn Beck is leading by example. I’d argue that Jim DeMint is leading by example. He’s not trying to make himself a self-appointed leader.

I ask you, stop looking for a “head” for the movement. Instead, lead yourself, lead by example, pay attention to and learn form others who are doing the same.

I think the Tea Party Movement is more of a fellowship than a hierarchy, and it should remain so.

I’ve been a registered Libertarian for years, and I am about to register as a Republican. Along with millions of others, I am going to help the GOP back to its Constitutional principles.

Trust yourself enough to lead yourself. I suggest you lead yourself in to your Local GOP. I think You’ll find other people leading themselves there, also.
