When my daughter was about six, I took her to a Buchanan for President rally. On the way, I was teaching her about voting and asked if she knew what the two major political parties were?

“Republicans and communists?” was her reply.

Good thing I was at a stop light cause I was laughing too hard to drive.

20 years later, she’s a strong conservative. She lives in a very liberal area and was glad she was off work the day after the election. She’d be the only one smiling at work.

That was 92’. If I was a child at the time the parties would be called Democrats and racists.

He calls sodomy, “sodomy?”

For those of us with limited vocabulary: trog·lo·dyte ˈträɡləˌdīt/ noun (especially in prehistoric times) a person who lived in a cave. a hermit. a person who is regarded as being deliberately ignorant or old-fashioned.

Often it is the troglodytes who sit back and watch the “progressives” take us down the road of destruction.

As I get older and find different values in my life, I learn that even the Darwin Award is a learning experience for the soul.

Let’s give Obamacare the Darwin Award. It would be a perfect metaphor for what it actually is.

I raise them right.

I remember a large news article interviewing all of the candidates, I think it was in the Detroit News. Each had the same list of questions.

One question: “Do You Recycle?”

Each candidate droned on about how good they were for the environment and concerned and made sure they recycled very drop of spit.

Pat Buchanan: “No.”

I do my best to follow his example. We fill our recycle bin strictly because we get charged by the bag for trash and recycles are no charge. I flat out refuse to clean any recyclables, I also refuse to look on the bottom for the type of plastic to see if it can go in there. If they don’t like, it, let them throw it out.

Buchanan will be at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library in Yorba Linda, Calif. on May 22 at 1:00 PM. The event is free. Come out, buy a book, and get it signed.

I didn’t read the article yet, but this is the third article I’ve seen recently talking about Buchanan being the original Trump.

Before Trump was Buchanan. Before Buchanan, Perot. Before Perot, John Anderson and before John Anderson, George Wallace. They may not have agreed on all things but their basic attitudes and philosophies were very similar. They all ended up being less than Conservative although at one time Buchanan was more or less a Buckley clone. Then he changed.
