About five times as many minutemen as pro-illegal counter-protesters.

Ok that could mean 5 minutemen and 1 counter protester. Was Simcox there?

Most significant was the fact that one speech threatened the formation of a populist party.

Yeah that is where this is headed. When I saw Buchanan and Keyes connections I figured it is just a prelude to forming the mystical 3rd party many are dreaming of. It has nothing to do with immigration legal or otherwise.

Yep, you're an adhom anklebiter. A parasite as it were - offereing nothing to the occasion but filling your egos gullet by attacking others in absence of anything useful. When you have something useful to the conversation to offer, let me know. I otherwase "cannot abide useless people.." - firefly.

If some credible looking demagogue stands up and promises:

To shut the borders
Stand up for the "middleclass"
Pull back from globalization
Enact fiscal responsibility

He'll get some votes.

Yes he will. He won't get enough to win BUT he will get enough money to live comfortably between elections.

It pains me to agree with you on this point. But at this point in time third party votes are a waste of time.
