In 1960, when JFK defeated Nixon, America was a nation of 160 million, 90 percent white and 10 percent black, with a few million Hispanics and Asians sprinkled among us.
We were one nation, one people. We worshipped the same God, spoke the same English language, studied American history and English literature, honored the same heroes, read the same books, watched the same TV shows, went to the same movies and saw ourselves as defenders of Western civilization against the godless communism of the Soviet Empire.
We were confident and proud of who we were. That was yesterday. But due to the Immigration Act of 1965 and the cultural revolution of the '60s, that America is now gone forever. And as one studies the latest projections of the Census Bureau, the America of our grandchildren will be another country altogether, a nation unrecognizable to our parents, a giant Brazil of the North.
In 2050, there will be three times as many people living here as in 1960 -- 420 million. White Americans will be a minority, 49 percent, and falling. Hispanics in the United States, more than 100 million, will be equal to the population of today's Mexico. Our Asian population will be almost as large as our African-American population today.
By countries of origin, America will be a Third World nation. Our cities will look like Los Angeles today. Los Angeles and the cities of Texas, Arizona and California will look like Mexico City.
Writing in Foreign Policy, Harvard Professor Samuel Huntington, author of Who We Are, raises an alarm about the huge infusion of Hispanics into the Southwest, and for many reasons.
Much of this mass immigration is illegal. Vast numbers are coming here only to work. They are not assimilating. They do not want to become Americans. They are concentrating in states bordering Mexico, which is their country and a nation with a historic grievance against us. They are holding on to their language and culture, creating a Hispanic nation within our nation. By 2050, there will be scores of millions of people living here whose loyalty is to a foreign country.
Moreover, as multiculturalism has captured our schools and colleges, immigrant children will have prejudices and grievances against America and the West reinforced as they learn. The academic elite that controls these schools already paints America as a nation with a rancid history of genocide, slavery, racism, oppression and imperialism.
Is the Census Bureau future the future that Americans wish? No. Are they willing to risk it for their grandchildren? No.
Why, then, does that future appear inevitable?
Answer: Though a majority of Americans wish to preserve the land they grew up in for their children, our elites -- political, academic, cultural and corporate -- are either unwilling to conserve that America or indifferent to its disappearance.
Most Americans want immigration cut back and all illegal aliens sent back. Why is the will of the majority, expressed in polls and referenda, not reflected in law or policy? Because we no longer live in a democratic republic; we are ruled by a managerial elite.
America's corporate elites want an endless supply of cheap labor. Our judges throw out popularly enacted laws to which they object. Our academic elites work to see ''white, racist America'' disappear. Our neo-Marxist cultural elites wish to be the gravediggers of the West and of Christian culture. And America's conservative party, the Republican Party, believes that Hispanics hold the key to retention of presidential power and is anxious not to offend Mexican President Vicente Fox.
If, by 2050, the America we grew up in has become a Tower of Babel of squabbling minorities that is falling apart, it will be because of the treason of the elites, and our lack of will to overthrow them.
Careful...you'll be flamed as racist,I fear, for speaking things like---the truth............
You can count on it. Our police and courts will be every bit as honest as those in Mexico. Our civil society will have the peace and order of Columbia. We'll benefit from the strong democratic traditions of the People's Republic of China and India.
Fortuntely, I have no offspring - and I anticipate being dead well before 2050. Y'all have fun!
There was very a very small native population of Indians when Costa Rica began being colonized. There is probably more Swiss blood in the population than Indian although there is some Nicaraguan influence.
In the 19th Century, people like Pat Buchanan believed that Catholics and the Irish would never make good Americans.
In the late 19th Century and early 20th Century, writers feared the day when America would no longer be predominantly of "Anglo-Saxon stock" .......And, no, they did not mean the generic "Anglo" of modern P.C. speech. They meant Anglo-Saxon as opposed to German, Irish, French, Italian, Jewish, Scandinavian, Spanish, Polish, Austrian, Greek, Dutch, Portuguese, Russian or anybody else that did not originate from England or Scotland. Somebody with the last name of "Rickenbacker", "Eisenhower" or "Nimitz" was not considered to be of "Anglo-Saxon stock".
How many pure-bred Anglo-Saxon Americans are left in America today outside of remote areas of Appalachia? The only ones that I know are naturalized citizens who still speak with a noticeable British accent.
Not only are you a racist, you are a fool. White people are 80% of American population.
Which? English or Italian?
I speak more dutch creole than italian
You're lucky to have found a conversation partner. Google said:
Classification: Creole, Dutch based.
Comments: The last speaker died recently. There may be some remaining second language speakers. Extinct. NT 1781-1833.
I speak English 99% of the time.
I try. ;o)
Yeah, that's how to solve the "problem"- whites are falling behind in numbers, so don't have any children. Of course Pat doesn't any white children either, maybe he thinks like you do.
