Pat Buchanan : America is "decomposing"...

Prominent conservative Pat Buchanan, in his new book state that the U.S. is 'decomposing,' and needs strong political leadership. Is the GOP losing its way with its conservative base?

I don't agree with some of his stances but here are his recommendations...

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.

Well that's up to you.

For me its interesting because it clarifies that most republicans and conservatives are losing faith in the GOP and the administration that has been in power for the last couple of years. Especially when you have a prominent conservative like Pat Buchanan coming against it.

His stance on illegal immigration is totally ridiculous however.

Pat Buchanan is a strange guy. Good to know that all his hours on sitting around with the McLaughlin Group on PBS has at least empowered him to take a stance and frame some of the real issues that America faces.
