In his column today, Balkanization Beckons, Patrick J. Buchanan opines that the massive media coverage of the current border crisis in Texas has killed amnesty legislation for now and may make immigration a decisive issue in the 2014 and 2016 elections. He then takes a deeper look at what uncontrolled immigration has done and is doing to America.
“The real issue: Will America remain one nation, or are we on the road to Balkanization and the breakup of America into ethnic enclaves?”
“We are from every continent and country. Nearly 4 in 10 Americans trace their ancestry to Asia, Africa and Latin America. We are a multiracial, multilingual, multicultural society in a world where countless countries are being torn apart over race, religion and roots.”
“We no longer speak the same language, worship the same God, honor the same heroes or share the same holidays. Christmas and Easter have been privatized. Columbus is reviled. Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Lee are out of the pantheon. Cesar Chavez is in.”
