Quoting Pat Buchanon:

--------------
“You put 100 million Hispanic folks in the United States and,
say, 70 million on the southwest border. That becomes as much
as part of Mexico as it is the United States. If they have a
different language, different culture, a different faith —
basically you get two peoples. And two peoples eventually become
two countries. This is what I see as the future of America.

Well, it was good while it lasted.

You blew it up!
Ah, damn you!
God damn you all to hell!

On Andrea Tantaros radio show last week, conservative columnist and
author Pat Buchanan warned of an unintended consequence of the
immigration reform bill, a bill which doesn’t place a high priority on
assimilation.

According to Tantaros, her previous guest, former New York Lt. Gov.
Betsy McCaughey, said that the immigration legislation funnels money to
so-called community organizing groups like La Raza with the idea of
teaching immigrants “American history, the Constitution and civic
participation.” That leaves open the possibility of activist groups
teaching with a partisan slant — and impedes assimilation.

Buchanan, author of “Suicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive to
2025?”explained that when different cultures are encouraged to
assimilate, nations are susceptible to splitting apart, pointing to
recent history as proof.

“With regard to the history and the teaching of it — this is one of the
problems I’ve talked about when you have a single-culture single nation,
you have basically a single culture,” Buchanan said. “If you
indoctrinate or teach kids different views about what their country and
how it began, what you get is a growing disintegration of the country, a
fragmentation into different parts. And we see this happening all over
the world. In the last few decades where ethnic groups and linguistic
minorities and ethnic minorities, cultural minorities, given the
pressures of ethno-nationalism, [they] are breaking up countries all
over the world. It’s happening all over the Middle East. It happened in
the Balkans where Yugoslavia broke up into seven countries. The Soviet
Union broke up into 15 countries.”

And when immigrants don’t assimilate, as could be the case with the
inflow Hispanic immigrants from the impending legislation, nations break
up — a possibility he laid out with the United States.

“You put 100 million Hispanic folks in the United States and, say, 70
million on the southwest border. That becomes as much as part of Mexico
as it is the United States,” Buchanan continued. “If they have a
different language, different culture, a different faith — basically you
get two peoples. And two peoples eventually become two countries. This
is what I see as the future of America — the Balkanization and the
disintegration of a country which become one nation back around 1960
when all the immigrants who came from Eastern and Southern Europe,
1890-1920, had been assimilated and American-ized. We all had gone
through the Depression together, heard radio together, went through
World War II together and American television — that brought us all
together. And now we’re coming apart.”
