Traditional America

Traditional America is the nation that the silent majority of us inhabit.  It's the nation that our forefathers envisioned when they wrote the Declaration of Independence.  It's the nation that our forefathers carved out of the wilderness.  It was an ocean away from Europe, but it was distinctively European in both the heritage of its founders and the principles they stood for.  It’s a nation which is overwhelmingly White, Western, Christian, and rural.

Many of us are nervous about referring to our racial heritage, but our European roots are integral to our nature, our temperament, and the kind of civilization we're inclined to design.  But it's even more specific than just "White".  We are largely descended through both blood and tradition from three populations within Europe: the British, the Scotch-Irish, and the Germanic peoples of Western Europe.  Our embattled constitutional republic is merely the latest manifestation of an ancient tradition among our people of open, just, and limited government which predates the Magna Carta, the Hellenic democracies, and even the "thing assemblies" of our tribal ancestors.

The country was founded on shared principles by people of a shared heritage.  They demanded equality, not in the Marxist egalitarian sense, but in the more important sense that they all deserved justice and dignity.  They demanded freedom, not in the modernist sense of irresponsibility and licentiousness, but in the more important sense that they all deserved freedom of expression and the pursuit of happiness.  They demanded a just and accountable government, one carefully balanced to keep justice and democracy from contradicting one another.

While several Christian (and some secular Enlightenment) traditions thrived in this new country, the Protestant denominations proved dominant in both numerical strength and cultural influence.  The Protestant work ethic, with its humility and its emphasis on honest dealings, had the natural consequence of spawning the world's foremost economic powerhouse.  Through industriousness, they created capital.  Through simple living, they saved and invested that capital in productive enterprises.  Through honest dealing and respect for the rule of law, capital and goods were able to flow freely and smoothly without the bribes, shakedowns, and fraud which are endemic throughout the rest of the world.

There were many streams of men which were poured from Europe and into the traditional American melting pot.  They were, however, from Europe, and they did melt into the pot. The overwhelming majority of contemporary immigrants are a different breed altogether, gravitating toward the major cities and aggregating into inassimilable exclaves of their foreign lands.  The true test of an immigrant population is whether it's inclined to integrate into the small towns in America, into the folk of the nation.  This is a test that only immigrants of European heritage have proven capable of passing.

While it had its faults, America was a nation which fostered a healthy, productive, and open society.  But, most of all, it was our nation.  We inherited a heritage and a tradition worthy of being proud of, worthy of defending.  But our traditional American nation which was once so defiant, confident, and hopeful, has been duped into accepting a worldview which embraces and celebrates our decline and eventual extinction as a moral crusade.

The globalists are importing third world populations by the tens of millions, populations which are reproducing at an alarming rate with government assistance while our own families struggle to have any children at all.  The government projects that we'll be a minority within a couple decades at the current rate of replacement, but the rate is sure to increase as those populations grow in political strength and leverage that power to accelerate their conquest.

Steadily and quietly, we've been forced out of our major cities.  Increasingly, we're forced out of the suburbs - into "exurbs" and beyond.  Our cost of living has grown dramatically and our tax burden is growing.  We are relegated to the back of the line for the decreasing number of available jobs.  We're being squeezed from every direction.  Politically, socially, economically, and demographically, we traditional Americans are being marginalized.

Most disgracefully of all, we remain utterly voiceless and complicit in our marginalization.  We accept the lexicon of our opponents and their rules of engagement.  We have to call it Affirmative Action rather than racial discrimination.  Paradoxically, we accept that we're being bigots for even objecting to that racial discrimination.  We have to call it illegal immigration rather than a hostile invasion, and we are only allowed to frame the debate in a legal context - as if the only problem with tens of millions of third world invaders is that they're not filling out the proper forms before invading us.

The other America, Global America, is the televised America, the institutional America, the multicultural, multiracial, multinational America.  It's unified by neither heritage nor creed. When they do state their principles, their statements are vague and largely reactive.  Their "American Dream" is to come here and get money.  Their common creed is tolerance for all things except for those things unique to the traditional American nation.  Their common vision is a vague and soulless global amalgamation.

If we traditional Americans don't snap out of the habit of apologizing, backpedaling, and slipping farther and farther out into the wilderness, we'll reach a point after which we no longer have the ability to defeat them.  From door-to-door and from state-to-state, we must light a fire of defiance in the hearts and minds of traditional Americans before it's too late.  We have to return to our Christian roots, our founding principles, and our Anglo-American heritage as rallying points.

We were once the strongest and most admired people in the world, and we can be so again. But to do so requires a return to first principles, a return to our heritage, and an awakening of national spirit.  We need to awaken the fiercely independent, uncompromising, industrious, and humble spirit of our pioneer forefathers.  But we must not only awaken, we must act!  Being awake is pointless if you never get out of bed.  One person at a time, one state at a time, we need to awaken traditional Americans to their heritage and mobilize them to defend it.
