Well some of the ideas minus the anti-Semitism.
Who would have been a better president? A short bus full of Bush’s, Clintons or Obamas, or Buchanan? Lemme help ya here, Buchanan would have been better by a series of magnitudes.
I think the charge of anti-semitism against Buchanan is hooey.
Pat Buchanan isn't an anti-Semite, as far as I can see.
Referring to the 1991 Newsweek article Is Pat Buchanan Anti-Semitic?, which references William F. Buckley's famous print attack on Buchanan, it's clear—if one wants to go back 25+ years—that Pat has made some "edgy" statements which were critical of Israeli influence on American policy. He has also expressed skepticism regarding the guilt of some accused Nazis, such as John Demjanjuk being Treblinka's "Ivan the Terrible."
Back in 1991 when Pat announced his candidacy, the Media used his "America First" stance as a smear in the very same way that it was used against President Trump last year—by reckoning back to the isolationist "America First" movement of the 1930's, which was seen as sympathetic to the Nazi regime.
In any event, I've always felt that accusations of anti-Semitism against Pat Buchanan were exaggerated, to say the least. I don't know Buchanan personally, but I can only judge him on the totality of what I've seen from him over my entire adult life—the last 35 years or so—and on that basis, I don't believe him to be an anti-Semite.
Buchanan has also been called racist, of course, for his critiques on black culture and the denial which permeates it...
The anti-Semitism charge is fake the same as it is with President Trump and everyone here at FR.
