Pat Buchannan, and more recently, Ron Paul, are the closest to being like Winston Churchill in our time.

How the F--- do you come up with that one ... are you even aware that Germany did not want war with England and offer them peace after in started did not want the British Empire (in fact Hitler saw the British Empire and Germany as natural allies)... Germany was only interested in the Continent

In fact... Germany did not declare war or attack England first...

Both Pat Buchanan and Ron Paul are isolationists. Winston Churchill was not.

Churchill was also a leader of men.

I know all about it.

But what countries profess--even sincerely profess--to want . . . .

And what those in power profess--even sincerely profess--to want, can be very different from what either may do in the future.

Churchill studied--and most important, understood--history.

He knew that Germany was on track to becoming the dominant power of Europe.

And under the influence of that power, Germany would develop new appetites.
