“It doesn’t take a genius to constantly proclaim the end.”

Eventually, all empires DO end, usually starting the downhill slide at about 300 years. How old are we?

But we’re not an empire.

We are at best a reluctant superpower.

But only because all the alternatives to our leadership were not exactly
things we wanted to live under. To say the least.

And this is still true today.

We are a nation of ideas. A nation founded for liberty.
If we allow the left to denigrate those ideas to the point where we don’t have the heart to defend those ideas, we will fall.
It doesn’t have to happen.
Pukannan is saying it is all but inevitable. Its been his one note samba for years.
Read his stupid magazine. He doesn’t like this country anymore than B.O. He wants to see it transformed also.

The thing is that we are not an empire and have never been an empire. We are the most unique nation in history of mankind on all levels, people, economy, government, technology, innovation, culture, etc... Buchanan is a bitter fool and bitter people always look at the negative side of every issue.

We will remain the world Super Power on every level and for a very, very, very long time to come.

God bless America.
