The opening-night speaker at first ever National Tea Party Convention ripped into President Obama, Sen. John McCain and โ€œthe cult of multiculturalism,โ€ asserting that Obama was elected because โ€œwe do not have a civics, literacy test before people can vote in this country.โ€

The speaker, former Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., told about 600 delegates in a Nashville, Tenn., ballroom that in the 2008 election, America โ€œput a committed socialist ideologue in the White House โ€ฆ Barack Hussein Obama."

As Think Progress notes, Tancredo words areโ€ฆinteresting considering the fact that for years, literacy tests were used to exclude Blacks from the voting pool.
