2020 may be the most important U.S. election since 1860.
(Transcript)
My name is Tom Klingenstein. I am the chair of the board of the Claremont Institute which is a conservative think tank, managing partner of a New York investment firm and playwright.
I wish to make three points. First, Trump is the perfect man for these times, not all times, perhaps not most times, but these times. Second, Republicans are not doing a good job explaining the stakes in this election. They must explain, and this is my third point, that the Democratic Party, which has been taken by its radical wing, is leading a revolution. This makes the coming election the most important one since the election of 1860. Let’s begin there.
Unlike most elections, this one is much more than a contest over particular policies—like health care or taxes. Rather, like the election of 1860, this election is a contest between two competing regimes, or ways of life. Two ways of life that cannot exist peacefully together.
One way of life, I’ll call it “the traditional American way of life,” is based on individual rights, the rule of law, and a shared understanding of the common good. This way of life values hard work, self-reliance, volunteerism, patriotism, and so on.
In this way of life there are no hyphenated Americans. We are all just Americans. Colorblindness is our aspiration.

Just viewed it.
Question: How long before youtube removes it?
Thanks! I knew someone would post something concerning this. Saves us time
Those who know how make hard copies.
I’m sure its on Rush’s server now.
You will probably say WOW!
The transcript is at the link too.
“Rather, like the election of 1860, this election is a contest between two competing regimes, or ways of life. Two ways of life that cannot exist peacefully together.”
All 100% true. Separation is the peaceful/less violent way it will have to happen. The alternative is super ugly. One side will need a wall to keep people out, the other will one to keep people in. There will be displacement.
I watched the video, went back to copy the URL so I could share the video, and now the page won’t open in my browsers.
Anyone else have a similar problem?
Rush talked about this on his show today, so thanks for sharing it.
He’s right about everything, I just wish they could resurrect Charlton Heston to do the Reading, or find someone of his Caliber.
Later.
Thank you. I tried again a few minutes later and the original link worked. Must have been an issue on my side.
I take it Biden is the movement.
Wow, wow, wow!
I just finished watching Mr. Klingenstein speak. I am blown away. He spoke the Truth, the Real Truth.
Reminds me of someone else who said, “I cannot spare this man! He fights!” Wasn’t that Lincoln speaking of Grant?
I think it was very effective because it came from an ordinary man, not a celebrity.
No, but Biden has come to embrace the radical left wing movement and their various intersectional groups like the transgenders, BLM, ANTIFA and Occupy Wallstreet.
I saw Heston speak in the unlikely town of Boulder, Colorado. I was not expecting the ferocity of the rabid protestors.
