United States of North America
by Steven Yates
May 1, 2006

Elitists in the United States, Mexico, and Canada are plotting to merge these three nations into a single regional government similar to the European Union.

In 1787, 13 former British colonies that had briefly been independent states agreed to create a free trade zone inside a shared security perimeter. People, goods, and capital would move freely throughout that region, ignoring previously existing borders. The union thus created was christened the United States of America.

In the early years of the 21st century, elites in three nations — the United States, Canada, and Mexico — are busy creating a new political configuration called the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP). It would broaden and deepen the relationship between the three nations created in 1994 through the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) in dramatic ways.

The new architecture would include a free trade zone protected by a common security perimeter, within which goods, people, and capital would move freely across what had once been firmly established international borders.

First of all, it would require that U.S. citizens effectively surrender their citizenship in the independent constitutional republic founded in 1787. Unlike the USA, which was an organic outgrowth of a political system rooted in Anglo-Saxon laws, customs, traditions, and language, the political entity created through the SPP — in effect, the United States of North America (USNA) — would be a forced three-way marriage of wildly incompatible cultures and political systems.

As most of you know, I will not be here on the forum much, if at all, for another week or so … but I wanted to pop in this morning to share this with you.

I wrote a guest editorial on illegal immigration that appeared in a nearby metropolitan newspaper last Sunday. I received countless responses – every one of them in support of my (and your) position. And this morning the letter to the editor, in bold below, appeared.

We are all angry and frustrated about the continuing unprecedented crisis (capital C) at our southern border … and the multitude of proposals being offered to reward those criminals who have already been feeding off of the fruits of our labors, and placing our countrymen in danger, for many years … and the empty, contrived political rhetoric being offered by those in the highest offices of our government whose allegiance is now questionable at best. But the following response offers a just as angry, and even more personal, glimpse into the mind of an American patriot:

This is in response to [joanie-f’s] column of last week.

I could not have worded it any better if I had tried. After reading her column, I feel that I’m not alone in my feelings, and think it’s only a matter of time before Americans, from all walks of life, realize what is being thrust on us in the ever growing epidemic of illegal immigration.

Before you think that I’m anti-immigration, let me assure you that I’m not.

I’m a naturalized citizen, from a Communist country, and I went through all the required things I had to do, to become a citizen, and many that were not. Including serving six years in the military, learning to speak English in six months (I spoke two other languages, but not English), and assimilating myself into the American culture, as an American.

When I legally became an American, I didn’t give up my heritage, but I certainly don’t place my birth country before the USA, ever! I saw the “protests” that the illegals staged throughout the country.

What gall. I haven’t seen anything like it since the organized “rallies” that enabled Hitler to take over Germany and the Communists to take over Eastern Europe. “Protest” my foot! It was well-organized sedition, and should be treated as such!

Sending the National Guard to the border is like using a water pistol on a forest fire. A few army divisions would be better, for a start. I have some pictures that I took many years ago of a sealed border between two countries. They show what is really needed on our borders, both north and south.

Thanks, all, for the many recent pings to pertinent articles. I will read them all as soon as time permits.

Meanwhile, The American Crisis is worsening by the day, while our ‘leadership’ continues to turn a convenient blind eye, polishing their primping and posturing skills, and offering up meaningless, toothless, mirage ‘solutions’ to a cancer that threatens to eventually render our individual liberty and sovereignty extinct.

It would appear that the future of our republic rests on the shoulders of the American patriot. We are walking down a path … certainly not well-lit, nor well-traveled … that has not existed in our lifetimes, or those of our parents or grandparents. We must continue to keep the Founders’ vision primary in our focus, and always look to Him for guidance.

Back soon …
