It’s actually too late to save America with mere politics. There are two ways to save America. And only these to ways. One way is to destroy the miseducation system and eliminate leftists in that field. We need to remake it as an American institution. The other way is revolution and bloodshed. But unless we remake education and eliminate liberal influence in that field, we won’t have enough of an educated voter base for mere politics to ever make any headway.

Interesting point. But people need to stop using public schools if at all possible. Let them take classes online if they can’t afford private schools or can’t homeschool.

It may come to that, but lets first press for a peaceful convention of the states to propose structural amendments to the constitution. When history looks backs on early 21st century America, I hope it finds a core of patriots who recognized what needed to be done and gave it their best effort.

I don’t see either of those as viable. The educational system won’t turn on a dime. We have huge numbers of uneducated people who could not pass an eighth grade final exam from fifty or sixty years ago walking around with high school diplomas and in all too many cases university degrees and many or most of them have no idea that they are actually UNEDUCATED. In fact a lot of them imagine that they really are the most educated Americans ever, it is hard to imagine anything further from the truth. People who can use there, their and they’re all in one long sentence and use all three incorrectly, cannot name a single branch of the federal government, have never heard of the battle of Hastings or the Magna Charta, cannot name the decade or in some cases the century of the American civil war, don’t know anything about the American revolution, use absurd mathematical expressions of impossibility such as “five hundred percent less” and cannot imagine why I object to the use of such absurd terms imagine themselves to be superbly educated because they have a piece of paper that says so. They literally don’t even know enough to know that they don’t know much. These are not the people you need to try to stage a revolution so I don’t see either course working out well. I don’t have any suggestion to offer as to what actually WILL work. I have tried for most of my life to wake a few people up to what I saw coming and it appears that I have failed miserably, people only wake up when it is too late to make any difference. It seems that now almost everyone I speak to is worried sick about what is happening but most of them could not be bothered thirty or forty years ago when there was still time to do something.
