NEW BUCHANAN BOOK DECLARES 'END OF AMERICA'

Sun Nov 25 2007 20:40:15 ET

**Exclusive**

“America is coming apart, decomposing, and...the likelihood of her survival as one nation...is improbable -- and impossible if America continues on her current course," declares Pat Buchanan. "For we are on a path to national suicide.”

The best-selling author and former presidential candidate is on the eve of launching his new epic book: DAY OR RECKONING: HOW HUBRIS, IDEOLOGY AND GREE ARE TEARING AMERICA APART.

This time, Buchanan goes all the way:

"America is in an existential crisis from which the nation may not survive."

The U.S. Army is breaking and is too small to meet America’s global commitments.

The dollar has sunk to historic lows and is being abandoned by foreign governments.

U.S. manufacturing is being hollowed out.

The greatest invasion in history, from the Third World, is swamping the ethno-cultural core of the country, leading to Balkanization and the loss of the Southwest to Mexico.

The culture is collapsing and the nation is being deconstructed along the lines of race and class.

A fiscal crisis looms as the unfunded mandates of Social Security and Medicare remain unaddressed.

All these crises are hitting America at once -- a perfect storm of crises.

Specifically, Buchanan contends:

• Pax Americana, the era of U.S. global dominance, is over. A struggle for global hegemony has begun among the United States, China, a resurgent Russia and radical Islam

• Bush’s invasion of Iraq was a product of hubris and of ideology, a secular religion of “democratism,” to which Bush was converted in the days following 9/11

• Torn asunder by a culture war, America has now begun to break down along class, ethnic and racial lines.

• The greatest threat to U.S. sovereignty and independence is the scheme of a global elite to erase America’s borders and merge the USA, Mexico and Canada into a North American Union.

• Free trade is shipping jobs, factories and technology to China and plunging America into permanent dependency and unpayable debt. One of every six U.S. manufacturing jobs vanished under Bush

• “Sovereign Wealth Funds,” controlled by foreign regimes and stuffed with trillions of dollars from U.S. trade deficits, are buying up strategic corporate assets vital to America’s security

• As U.S. wages are stagnant, corporate CEOs are raking in rising pay and benefits 400 to 500 times that of their workers

• The Third World invasion through Mexico is a graver threat to our survival as one nation than anything happening in Afghanistan or Iraq

* European-Americans, 89% of the nation when JFK took the oath, are now 66% and sinking. Before 2050, America is a Third World nation

• By 2060, America will add 167 million people and 105 million immigrants will be here, triple the 37 million today.

• Hispanics will be over 100 million in 2050 and concentrated in a Southwest most Mexicans believe belongs to them

Buchanan’s Recommendations:

• A new foreign-defense policy that closes most of the 1000 bases overseas, reviews all alliances, and brings home U.S. troops

• A purge of neoconservative ideology and the “Cakewalk” crowd” from national power.

• To avert a second Cold War, the United States should “get out of Russia’s space and get out of Russia’s face,” and shut down all U.S. bases on the soil of the former Soviet Union

• To reach a cold peace in the culture war, Buchanan urges a return to federalism and the overthrow of our judicial dictatorship by Congressionally mandated restrictions on the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court.

• To end the trade deficits and save the dollar, Buchanan urges a Hamiltonian solution: a 20% Border Equity Tax on imports, with the $500 billion raised to be used to end taxation on American producers

• To prevent America becoming “a tangle of squabbling nationalities” Buchanan urges: No amnesty for the 12-20 million illegal aliens; a border fence from San Diego to Brownsville; Congressional declarations that children born to illegal aliens are not citizens and English is the language of the United States; and a “timeout” on all immigration.

Much of what he says is pretty obvious

I would say so too. I don't agree with everything that Pat Buchannan says, but when he says we are disinigrating as a nation, you had better believe him!! It's true...

I agree with everything my hero Patrick Buchanan has said. I donated money to him when he ran for the Presidency. He has been “RIGHT’ from the beginning.

I can’t argue with you my friend. My only point about Klinton was that she will bring us to become a socialist , 3rd world toilet much faster than anyone else will.
I see logic being replaced by absurdity on every level of society. Radical Islam is winning in the home war , that is , infiltrating our country from within. Without boarders we will be some variation of some South American slum in 10 years or so . i don’t see much good happening unless we find a dynamic leader who can turn around this run away ship called America.

If this country had elected Buchanan in 1992, the USA would not be in the sorry state that it is in today courtesy of the Bushes and Clintons. $3.29 gas, China armed to the teeth with our technology and money, 20 million illegals committing crimes, Republican party in shambles, poisoned food, endless war, and Hillary on the horizon thanks to bush rebuilding her reputation. Just to name a few.

If we elected Buchanan we would have 20 foot walls 200 miles off the coast of California.

A lot of people would rather live in denial. They’ll see the light someday, maybe.

Buchannan is Ted Turner’s idea of a “good” conservative.

‘nuff said.

I have NEVER accepted him as a valid spokesman for conservative causes. He’s a crypto fascist Neanderthal. I don’t accept his MSM nomination as my spokesman.

If America is destroyed, it may be by Americans who salute the flag, sing the national anthem, march in patriotic parades, cheer Fourth of July speakers – normally good Americans, but Americans who fail to comprehend what is required to keep our country strong and free, Americans who have been lulled away into a false security.

China is our 3d largest export nation and we export everything to them from food to farm equipment to computers to movies.

They sure as heck can't get enough of our chicken feet! It must make your grandma real angry. You simply can't make good chicken soup without chicken feet.

Ah, if only we could that wall that would be built by Pat Buchanan. It would be so wonderful not to have foreigners from the "turd world" flooding our cities with their diseases and violence. We could also have some of our jobs back. It sounds too good to be true.

What specifically do you disagree with in terms of his analysis? Let’s talk substance not inuendo.
