With the elections upon us and so many friends and relatives talking about their frustrations with American politics and such I thought that I’d share with you one of the best speeches that I’ve read. I think that it’s truly time for Americans to stand up for what we believe in and let our leaders know that we expect them to be great leaders rather than continuing with the greed and “politics” that we’ve seen to date.
We know Dick Lamm as the former Governor of Colorado. In that
context his thoughts are particularly poignant. Last week there was an immigration overpopulation conference in Washington, DC, filled to capacity by many of American’s finest minds and leaders. A
brilliant college professor by the name of Victor Hansen Davis talked about his latest book, Mexifornia,” explaining how immigration - both legal and illegal was destroying the entire state of California. He said it would march across the country until it destroyed all vestiges of The American Dream.
Moments later, former Colorado Governor Richard D. Lamm stood up and gave 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 dependence. Pakistan and Cyprus have divided. Nigeria suppressed an ethnic rebellion. France faces difficulties with Basques, Bretons, and Corsicans.”
Lamm went on: Second, to destroy America, “Invent ‘multiculturalism’ and encourage immigrants to maintain their
culture. I would make it an article of belief that all cultures are equal. That there are no cultural differences. I would 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 multiethnic and multicultural experiment might have been achieved not by tolerance but by egemony. Without the dominance that once dictated ethnocentricity 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 ensure that we have various cultural sub-groups 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 population.”
“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 precedent. People undervalue the unity 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 worshipped 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’ instead 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-culturism,
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.

Folks, I share that because I think it’s time that we all acted like AMERICANS! This is still the greatest country on the planet and will continue to be if each one of us always remembers that we are Americans and encourage our political leaders and our neighbors to remember that is who we are and what we expect from them.

I would not want to have any of you read these pages and think that things are hopeless or to get discouraged about what is taking place. There are plenty of great leaders and plenty of answers for us. Each of us needs to spend some time pondering where we are at in life and where we want to go as individuals and as a nation. It can be changed and quickly if we work together.
If you have not been exposed to the incredible movie, “The Secret” produced by our friends in Australia you are missing out on what I would have to call one of the best movies of all time. The Secret explains to us how the rich and powerful have held on to this “secret” for ages and used it to control the masses. The movie explains how the “secret” is really the Law of Attraction, one of those Universal Laws that exist that is just as powerful as the Law of Gravity, for example. The Law of Attraction is what aids us in creating our worlds and I can assure you that each one of us really does create our world, like it or not.
By understanding the Law of Attraction we can use it to CHANGE our world, in all ways. We can change our work environment, we can change our financial picture, we can change our relationships, we can change our city, state and country! Friends, this is very powerful stuff and I urge you to take the time to get educated further so that you can use the Law of Attraction to create the life you dream about! Take time right now to watch the movie and/or order it at www.thesecret.tv I would recommend that you order the DVD so that you can watch this incredible movie several times and share it with your loved ones.
