In this edition of Valley Vision News I'll interview Marcus Wagner who is a constitutional activist that I met while covering the Tea Party October 30th Health Care Legislation protest. Marcus was speaking to the protestors and I found his message so interesting that I wanted to investigate it further where our viewers would get to hear it. Marcus talks with me about the Tea Party, the 2nd Tuesday Constitution group, and the election results from Nov 3rd. Marcus was quite candid and honest about his distrust for politicians and his love of our country and its Constitution. I think you will find this interview very interesting.

Also in this edition you will find coverage of the Roanoke Tea Party's October 30th Health Care Legislation protest. We talked to one of the organizers, Kaleb Coulter, about the event and his feelings on the issues and the corresponding legislation being considered in Washington. We talked to the protestors and you will get to see them talk about why they are protesting in their own words. Congressman Bob Goodlatte attended the protest and spoke with the protesters one on one and in small groups. He spoke on camera for us and we included those remarks as well.
Tea Party Organizer Kaleb Coulter
On Saturday, September 12th Tea Party groups from all over the country marched on the Capitol. Valley Vision News was there. Reports in the traditional media had crowds estimated at "tens of thousands." Having attended University of Tennessee football games for many years, I am familiar with what 110,000 people look like in a group. There was at least 5 times that in attendance. Is the traditional media just mistaken? Or, are they purposefully reporting less participation that there really was? They are giving you false information either way and you shouldn't stand for it. In this edition of Valley Vision News we will show you raw footage of the event and one of the protestors addressing anyone in the crowd who would listen.
