Our country’s faux-conservative Republican politicians have failed to preserve the principles our Founding Fathers established as the bedrock of this nation.
How often have we put our faith in leaders who might say the right thing yet do all they can to backstab anyone attempting to right the conservative ship of state? Conservative pundits have not been shy about cataloging the nations’ ills. While also labeling much of what ails us, one writer has provided insight into the causes of our troubles and also offers solutions.
Josiah Lippincott, a former Marine officer, and current student at the Van Andel School of Statesmanship at Hillsdale College, has suggested a conservative and spiritual way forward for America.
In an article for American Greatness, he rightly identifies the success of the communist left in the U.S. as based mainly upon a successful attempt to affect our nation’s demographics through legal immigration policy.
The large influx of immigrants from Latin American and Asian countries, who have voted overwhelmingly for Democrats since their arrival, has altered the character of the country.
While the right brays hysterically about illegal immigration as the root of the problem, the problem is not just illegality, it is immigration itself. The Democrat coalition in fact has gone about creating majorities of individuals who have arrived on our shores by legal means.
Lippincott opines that without legal immigration as practiced today and for the last half century, we would not be in the decline we face today. Thinking that merely restricting immigration to what we term ‘legal’ will ensure the maintenance of good old-fashioned American values is folly. He believes that vision of the right is a ‘pipe dream wired to a pipe bomb.’ Our Constitution has been more undermined by legal immigration than it has been by illegal immigration. The communist left has seized this opportunity to manipulate demographics to their great advantage.
