Was That 300 Millionth American Really American?

By Patrick J. Buchanan

...Most of those coming now are poor and uneducated, and are unable to
speak our language. Some do not wish to become Americans. But they are
sending our crime, poverty and disease rates skyward, and pulling U.S.
academic scores down toward Third World levels.

But what is most significant about these deep and irreversible
alterations in the character of the nation is that the American people
never voted for it and do not want it. It is being imposed from above,
anti-democratically, by a regime that refuses to enforce our laws and
is now at virtual war with the American people.

Though immigration is the hottest domestic issue in 2006, and every
candidate in a close race is taking a hard line on border security -
even Hillary Clinton voted for 700 miles of security fence - the will
of the people is ignored.

According to a poll released Monday by the Center for Immigration
Studies, 68 percent of Americans say immigration is too high. Only 2
percent believe it is too low. Yet the McCain-Kennedy-Bush bill would
have granted amnesty to millions of illegal aliens and doubled the
number of legal immigrants.

The failure to restrict immigration so the Melting Pot can work, the
refusal to seal the border despite what America wants, suggests ours
has ceased to be a democratic republic. "Here, sir, the people rule!"
used to be a proud boast. Today, the line is laughable.

In my book State of Emergency: The Third World Invasion and Conquest
of America, I projected that by 2050, every city in America would look
like Los Angeles, and Los Angeles and the cities of the Southwest
would look like Mexico City.

And what is happening to Los Angeles? According to Robert Putnam,
Harvard political scientist and author of Bowling Alone, the trust
among people in "this most diverse human habitation in human history"
is now at rock bottom, the lowest anywhere he could find.

"In the presence of diversity," said Putnam, "we hunker down. We act
like turtles. The effect of diversity is worse than had been imagined.
And it's not just that we don't trust people who are not like us. In
diverse communities we don't trust people who look like us." [ Study
paints bleak picture of ethnic diversity , by John Lloyd, Financial
Times, October 8, 2006]

The more people of different races that live in a community, the
greater the loss of trust, said Putnam. "They don't trust the local
mayor, they don't trust the local paper, they don't trust other
people, and they don't trust institutions. ... The only thing there is
more of is protest marches and TV watching."

Welcome to the Brave New World our elites are creating for our
children, as they consign the America we grew up in to the compost
heap of history.

Growth is great for WalMart and the Chamber of Commerce element.
