Well 1st let's identify, who make up the tea party. They are mostly, older ,white religious, republican men. Then we have to define racist. Do we mean racist against every other race? Just Hispanics? Just blacks? The last poll I saw said that half of all americans are racist against African Americans. If I had to guess a precent in the tea party, Id guess slightly higher than the general population.So not "everyone"? Just "most"?
How about a percentage?
I'm betting there are no more racist TEA Party members than there are NAACP members.
This is what the left (including the media) would like you to believe. You obviously haven't been to one of their rallies. The two I went to, the average age was about 30, and there were more women there than men. I'd say about 7 to 8 pecent were African American.. a little under the national average. IT's the "older white men" that get the stage, and the media's attention

I didn't say "those who are most active in the tea party". However every poll done asking people if they identify as "tea party" shows largely older white republican men.
