“Not exactly uplifting, but it’s what we need to know.”
It’s what we need to take to heart.
The only case where a major party was deposed involved little more than a decapitation of the Whig national committee followed by the creation of Republican state committees formed by the Abolitionists, and whatever Whigs and Democrats who were finally willing to go along with the Abolitionists.
That's how we got the Republican party.
The same trick should work again ~ create a New Republican National Committee and invite the states to send their state chairmen to the NRNC first national meeting.
That ought to pretty much bust up the NRC and their running dog lackeys.
First, a new rule book that sets out to protect the franchise and end the lock the professionals have on what passes for Republican ideology at that point. The way I view this the Socons, Fiscalcons, Countryclubbers and possibly the business interests will need to each have formal internal caucuses that have a veto on candidates for President ~
““Not exactly uplifting, but it’s what we need to know.”
....It’s what we need to take to heart.”
Excellent piece, I read it through.
If what Mr. Duke is saying is true, then it’s time for conservative Euros to stop arguing with each other about what must be done to “save the country”, and time to start thinking about “where do we (as conservatives and traditionalist Euros) go from here?”
Mr. Romney may win, or he may lose, but at some point in the not-too-distant future (the state of Texas will be the key here, when its exploding demographic cohort of Hispanic babies come-of-voting-age) we’re going to reach a point where it becomes numerically impossible for a Republican (forget “conservative Republican, I’m talking about ANY Republican) to win the presidency.
At that point, the entire country may resemble New York, Illinois, or California — “one-party” states where conservatives live, to be sure, but who no longer have enough numbers to have a significant political voice. A political party with permanent minority status.
We are seeing the nation trend towards that today, with a huge cohort that no longer seems to care about traditional American values or freedoms. To them, “freedom” means a free Obamaphone, or endless recharges of their EBT cards.
In a nation where conservatives and traditionalists no longer have the numbers to influence policy, how will they keep their own traditions and heritage alive?
