I find it extremely disturbing that Pat Buchanan would be writing such a book.

I mean, think about it: by definition our country was a nation of immigration and how different ethnic and racial cultures mixed to create a uniquely American identity.

His views are exactly that of Americans between 1840 and 1924 when waves of immigrants from Ireland, Eastern Europe and Southern Europe showed up en masse in the USA seeking a better life than their native homelands. Does anymore remember the phrase No Irish need apply? Or the perjorative words Dago, Wop, Spic, and so on? Or the way Americans poorly treated Chinese and Japanese immigrants on the US West Coast early in the 20th Century?

Indeed, I really wonder does Buchanan understand his Irish roots. His ancestors probably came to the USA during the time of the Irish Potato Famime of the 1840's; that wave if Irish immigrants were treated just as badly as today's Mexican immigrants, if not more so.

I'll say this though: this book isn't going to sell in any large city that has a long-established ethnic enclave (New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Miami, etc.).

I'm sorry but I just cannot agree with the comment that illegals are "treated badly". Not after seeing how many welfare style programs are in place to see that they're fed, housed, educated and medicated to a degree that many of them would have never thought possible. I am really sick and tired of seeing our current tax dollars go to these people while we continue to add on mountains of debt that our children will never be able to repay. Somehow I don't think Pat's ancestors were given much welfare help.

Surely YOU do find Mr. Buchanan's book a mysterious & scary thing. You obviously failed to read & understand the founding documents & the many debates concerning them. This country was not established as a free-for-all. Washington left home & styed at the War for Independence for seven long years. He & our ancestors did not then announce an end to our government, borders, property rights or our culture. The people now ( still ) hold that soveriegnty formerly of the King ( & exercise it via their local & state gov ). We, perhaps many millions of very quiet, non-activist, law abiding Americans, also will eventually defend what is ours-ignoring political correctness, media jackels, the UN, Left Wing socialists & any other fools or anti-American orginizations. I don't know where the line is that we might eventually cross & may not return from, but our leaders seem to want to go there. That is much more frieghtening than anything a pundit might put in a book. Mr. Buchanan only states the obvious-his work may be judged by the hostility of the response &, also, the vacuous comments by some.

The only real crime against Orientals, in this country, ( which I have noticed ) was the horrid failure to reimburse the people of Japanese ancestry ( & or nationality ) who were removed during WWII. Their removal was perhaps unpleasant-but the US Army had already made plans for meeting an anticipated invasion of the West Coast. They had actually put weapons & amunition at critical points through-out the Rocky Mountains, at key passes where they hoped to stop the Imperial Japanese Army. I note no one addreses the loss of property & income of those people rounded up-I, sir, see that as THE error & perhaps a crime.

I find it extremely disturbing that Pat Buchanan would be writing such a book.

What I find disturbing is that we are being invaded by millions upon millions of criminal illegal aliens, while our government encourages and supports this massive invasion. We are a nation of laws. Do you understand this?

Oh, and my signed copy of Death of the West is on its way. I hope that disturbs you.
