Former DNC Chairman Howard Dean predicts the Tea Party will play an important role in the 2012 presidential election, but calls the political movement the "last gasp of the 55-year-old generation."

"Every morning when they see the president, they're reminded that things are totally different than they were when they were born," says Dean of Tea Party supporters. "It's not just the economy."

-----

Former Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean sits down for a conversation with attendees of the Monitor Breakfast to discuss the departure of senior members in President Barack Obama's administration, the Tea Party and more.

Howard Brush Dean III is an American politician and physician from the U.S. state of Vermont. He served six terms as Governor of Vermont and ran unsuccessfully for the 2004 Democratic Presidential nomination. He was the Chairman of the Democratic National Committee from 2005 to 2009.

An early front-runner in the 2004 Democratic Presidential nomination, Dean denounced the 2003 invasion of Iraq and called on Democrats to more strongly oppose the Bush Administration. Dean showed strong fundraising ability, and was a pioneer of political fundraising via the internet; however, he eventually lost the nomination to Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts. Dean formed the organization Democracy for America and later was elected chairman of the Democratic National Committee in February 2005.

Dean was named "chairman emeritus" of the DNC upon his retirement. He was mentioned as a possible candidate for Secretary of Health and Human Services and Surgeon General under the Obama administration.

  • @laymansviews Which forefathers are you referring to? "In God We Trust" has only been on our currency since 1864.

  • Do you honestly believe that our forefathers were simply looking for something to decorate our currency with when they put In God We Trust” on it?

    See this short clip at my channel, share if you agree...

  • @fliegeroh, stop being a moron and wake the fuck up. This isn't about dems or repubs... these are the games used to distract you from seeing the truth. the country has been owned for a long time by the monetary system and those few who use it to keep us in line. Now that system of control is coming to and end and something wonderful or terrible is just around the corner. Watch the zeitgeist moving forward if you ever get the balls.

    Americans are prostitutes owned slaves to the Federal Reserve as the presidents are the SELECTED pimps/managers by the Federal Reserve who owns the main street media. As Their DemocratRepublican selection is one of the same it does not matter which side loses, they win Pre dick tion SARA PAYLAND

  • I find it interesting that Dean was spouting this anti-Tea Party talk a week before the shooting in Tucson. All the democratic-socialists quickly transferred this rubbish to the shooting. It is obvious it is a planned democratic-socialist propaganda ploy. They are spreading lies about the Tea Party as Obama begins his re-election campaign. What utter phonies these lefty loons are!

  • @6oatFaulkers I think your fat ass Mexican mom posing as an Native American should shut her fucking mouth and take my dick ut of it.

    I bow to no crown.

    My brothers are those who fight the good fight against a crown wearer unlike yourself so proud to be ruled by a higher human.Go fuck yourself you traior to freedom and only come to America when you get the balls to go against the popular and stand up on your own.
