America no longer white, united, English-speaking
The Miami Herald ^ | 02 April 2004 | Patrick J. Buchanan

Posted on 04/03/2004 11:22:26 AM PST by MegaSilver

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.

Immigration sets off a vicious cycle. Once the floodgates are open most politicians try to pander for votes putting the security (economic, cultural, political, and terrorist-wise) of the American people at risk. It takes a political party or political leader with a spine to take a stand against this rape of our soil. Jean-Marie Lepen is that man in France, and at least 20% of France has had enough of immigration.

Very good post. Anyone who wants to boost his or her ego playing goody-two-shoes on this subject should take a look at what immigration is doing to France and educate himself or herself.

And France since the end of World War II has anything to boast about, unless you think the Gaullist mixture of self proclaiming chest thumping hubris, hedonism, and cowardice, is something to be proud of.

Unrestricted immigration isn't good but if this government isn't even really cracking down on illegal immigration, why start with people doing thing legally in the first place? Both should be done at the same time.

Yeah right, the anti-American, anti-Jewish nutcase. While another 50% in France supports the anti-American, anti-Jewish, socialists.

France is up to 70% certifiable nutcases with the the other 30% hemming and hawing on which nutcase to support.

"What is American culture BTW?"

A better question would be: What is Mexican culture?

For the record: By American culture I don't mean the neo-sodomite refuse projected by the media. I am talking about our Judeo-Christian values, the Second Amendment, freedom of speech, economic freedoms, hatred of tyranny, our hard-working spirit... I can go on.

The whole article is racist in fact.

Is it racist to prevent your majority culture from becoming the minority in your own country ?

We have a lot to learn from Israel who knows how to deal with these b@stards.


BUMP

JMO, but it seems you still have a lot of issues to deal with about Mexico and Napolean III.

So if there are non-white immigrants who have the same values then what is the problem? BTW, that would be my view of American culture as well.

Outside of the US,the word caucasian usually means of Northern European appearance.The word 'Aryan' was built on the Indian myth of northern invaders,then borrowed by Nietzsche,then interpreted by Hitler(and some Indians who hate their own skin-color)as fact.

Hitler's revamp of the word 'Aryan' was an attempt to encompass all the nations who sprung from Germanic blood(whether it be angle,saxon,nordic,celtic etc) against those of Slavic and Semitic blood to reclaim land.Luckily,only some of the Celts joined his side,.

As noble as it is to spin that Syrians,Indians and Iraqis are white,it just wont stick,and it really shouldnt matter.Heck,even Poles,Russians and Serbs aint qualifying for any 'Aryan Brotherhood' chapter outside of the US.

Perhaps the simplest analogy is that 'white'='western' in the eyes of the world.For any country to 'westernize' means it is,in a very un-pc matter of speaking,adopting 'white' culture.And this white culture holds up as its basis initiators like Beethoven,Shakespeare,George Washington,Goethe,Luther,English common law etc,almost always that of which is Northern European....that of which is 'white' in the eyes of the world.

What's your agenda, huh? Who says I'm only talking of post-World War II France? France has plenty to be proud of: from overthrowing the tyranny of the monarchs in 1789 to the valiant men who died for Napoleon to its Republican government. Granted, national pride in France, despite what you might hear on the news or in films, is really low. Leftist "values" and self-loathing are even more rampant there than here. The Arabs are just making it a hell of a lot worse.

Could never figure out why she had me sit in front where she could keep an eye on me.

Probably tells you something about your Dad when he was in her class. IIRC, I only had one teacher that had taught my Dad. Fortunately he remembered Dad as a star high shcool athelete, not as the hell raiser he had been in late elementry school, when he managed to get himself kicked out of the catholic school.

France is all anti... well, not anti-American... but isolationist I guess you'd say (despite their bullshit UN extolling), regardless of party.

Lepen is not anti-Jewish. That is a fallacy perpetuated by the leftist media both here and in France. Who's burning the synagogues? Who's terrorizing the Jews? The National Front? Give me a break! It's the Arabs. Lepen had strong support among urban, non-elite Jews sick and tired of living in fear.

You're talking current events here, not culture. I don't appreciate that much as you wouldn't appreciate hearing someone calling Americans irresponsible people who like blowjobs on account of Bill Clinton.

I see in the above you used the past tense of the word has.

LePen "has" one interest and one interest only, himself.

But thank you for bringing him up, he is another person that I would add to as a member to the neo-Peronist club.

"While I don't particularly care for Patrick Buchanan, and the title of this piece is rather racist in tone,"

It is?

Read the title again.

Sounds fine to me.

No one to my knowledge had a Republican form of government prior to ours

The British did, at least in embryonic form. Where do you think our founders got their ideas of "The rights of Englishmen", which is all they wanted. Well most of them anyway, and at first. However none of those other significant colonial ethnic groups did in their (often only ancestral) homelands. There weren't enough Swiss to count, although many of the governmental forms established after/during the revolution were modeled after those of the Swiss Confederacy.
