Former Colorado Governor Richard D. Lamm gives a stunning
speech on how to destroy America...............
The audience sat spellbound as he described eight methods for the destruction of
the United States . He said, "If you believe that America is too smug, too
self-satisfied, too rich, then let's destroy America . It is not that hard to
do. No nation in history has survived the ravages of time. Arnold Toynbee
observed that all great civilizations rise and fall and that 'An autopsy of
history would show that all great nations commit suicide.'"
"Here is how they do it," Lamm said:
"First, to destroy America , turn America into a bilingual or multi-lingual and
bicultural country. History shows that no nation can survive the tension,
conflict, and antagonism of two or more competing languages and cultures. It is
a blessing for an individual to be bilingual; however, it is a curse for a
society to be bilingual. The historical scholar, Seymour Lipset, put it this
way: 'The histories of bilingual and bicultural societies that do not assimilate
are histories of turmoil, tension, and tragedy.' Canada , Belgium , Malaysia ,
and Lebanon all face crises of national existence in which minorities press for
autonomy , if not independence. Pakistan and Cyprus have divided. Nigeria
suppressed an ethnic rebellion. France faces difficulties with Basques, Bretons,
Corsicans and Muslims."
"Second, to destroy America , invent 'multiculturalism' and encourage immigrants
to maintain their culture. Make it an article of belief that all cultures are
equal; that there are no cultural differences. Make it an article of faith that
the Black and Hispanic dropout rates are due solely to prejudice and
discrimination by the majority. Every other explanation is out of bounds.
"Third, we could make the United States an 'Hispanic Quebec' without much
effort. The key is to celebrate diversity rather than unity. As Benjamin Schwarz
said in the Atlantic Monthly recently: 'The apparent success of our own
multi-ethnic and multicultural experiment might have been achieved not by
tolerance but by hegemony. Without the dominance that once dictated ethnocentriy
and what it meant to be an American, we are left with only tolerance and
pluralism to hold us together.' Lamm said, "I would encourage all immigrants to
keep their own language and culture. I would replace the melting pot metaphor
with the salad bowl metaphor. It is important to en sure that we have various
cultural subgroups living in America enforcing their differences rather than as
Americans, emphasizing their similarities."
"Fourth, I would make our fastest growing demographic group the least educated.
I would add a second underclass, unassimilated, undereducated, and antagonistic
to our population. I would have this second underclass have a 50% dropout rate
from high school."
"My fifth point for destroying America would be to get big foundations and
business to give these efforts lots of money. I would invest in ethnic identity,
and I would establish the cult of 'Victimology.' I would get all minorities to
think that their lack of success was the fault of the majority. I would start a
grievance industry blaming all minority failure on the majority plation."
"My sixth plan for America 's downfall would include dual citizenship, and
promote divided loyalties. I would celebrate diversity over unity. I would
stress differences rather than similarities. Diverse people worldwide are mostly
engaged in hating each other - that is, when they are not killing each other. A
diverse, peaceful, or stable society is against most historical precet. People
undervalue the unit y it takes to keep a nation together. Look at the ancient
Greeks. The Greeks believed that they belonged to the same race; they possessed
a common language and literature; and they worshiped the same gods. All Greece
took part in the Olympic games. A common enemy, Persia , threatened their
liberty. Yet all these bonds were not strong enough to overcome two factors:
local patriotism and geographical conditions that nurtured political divisions.
Greece fell. "E. Pluribus Unum" -- From many, one. In that historical reality,
if we put the emphasis on the 'pluribus' instea d of the 'Unum,' we will
"Balkanize" America as surely as Kosovo.'
"Next to last, I would place all subjects off limits. Make it taboo to talk
about anything against the cult of 'diversity.' I would find a word similar to
'heretic' in the 16th century - that stopped discussion and paralyzed thinking.
Words like 'racist' or 'xenophobe' halt discussion and debate. Having made
America a bilingual/bicultural country, having established multi-culture, having
the large foundations fund the doctrine of 'Victimology,' I would next make it
impossible to enforce our immigration laws. I would develop a mantra: That
because immigration has been good for America , it must always be good. I would
make every individual immigrant symmetric and ignore the cumulative impact of
millions of them."
In the last minute of his speech, Governor Lamm wiped his brow. Profound silence
followed. Finally he said, "Lastly, I would censor Victor Hanson Davis's book 'Mexifornia.'
His book is dangerous. It exposes the plan to destroy America . If you feel
America deserves to be destroyed, don't read that book."
There was no applause. A chilling fear quietly rose like an ominous cloud above
every attendee at the conference. Every American in that room knew that
everything Lamm enumerated was proceeding methodically, quietly, darkly, yet
pervasively across the United States today. Discussion is being suppressed. Over
100 languages are ripping the foundation of our educational system and national
cohesiveness. Even barbaric cultures that practice female genital mutilation are
growing as we celebrate 'diversity.' American jobs are vanishing into the Third
World as corporations create a Third World in America. Take note of California
and other states. To date, ten million++ illegal aliens and growing fast. It is
reminiscent of George Orwell's book "1984." In that story, three slogans are
engraved in the Ministry of Truth building: "War is peace," "Freedom is
slavery," and "Ignorance is strength."
Governor Lamm walked back to his seat. It dawned on everyone at the conference
that our nation and the future of this great democracy is deeply in trouble and
worsening fast. If we don't get this immigration monster stopped within three
years, it will rage like a California wildfire and destroy everything in its
path, especially The American Dream.
