Is this what is happening in America?
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 America '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 bi-cultural 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, and Corsicans.". Lamm went on: 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 multiethnic and multicultural experiment might have been achieved not by tolerance but by hegemony. 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 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 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 'plu

No. It's just another politician pandering to his audience. And Lamm sucked as governor too.

What a load of crap. It sounds like he wants a pure white nation where everybody speaks English and thinks the exact same way. That would be destroying America.

The thing about dual citizenship! What about Uncle Rupert Murdoch father of News Corp (FOX & Lie) net work! Does that apply to Uncle Rupert! When have you picked up and bought anything that was not stamped MADE IN CHINA? What American made that product?

Dear President Obama, We all enjoy a life of luxuries. Even those who can’t afford luxuries have them. However, these “luxuries†come at a heavy price. Cars, gadgets, the internet and electricity have become a part of our daily lives. Humans, who don’t enjoy hard work (no matter what people claim)enjoy the convenience these tool provide us. However, while we are carrying out our functions, getting upset over trivial matters, plotting, scheming, and being human, we forget on whom we are walking on. While we try to destroy others of our own species, we don’t realize that we are also destroying the one who conceived us: Gaea, also known as Mother Earth. We are slowly destroying our home. Like a cancer, the actions that harm the world keep spreading. Also like a cancer, there is a chance the disease will leave, but only with grueling treatments. And now we are standing in front of crossroads. Either we can heal the Earth, or we can watch it slowly die, plunging the world we know into a devastating apocalypse. There are many ways we can cure the disease that the “superior beings†brought on. Even the simplest changes can help us toward our goal of leaving the world the way it was before we poisoned it, plague-free. I won’t bore you with the standard “save water, save energy, save trees†advice. Only God knows how many times people have tried to get people to listen to that message. Truth is that people are hearing the messages, but not listening. The government and many charities are spilling thousands of dollars to try and promote these changes. There is another, more effective way. First, get actors, pop stars, athletes, and other teen idols to promote these changes. Second, put some boundaries on factories and oil companies. Last, try to slowly influence American car companies to become entirely hybrid. You, sir, have the most power to make an actual change in our country, if not the world. Adolescents idolize pop stars and models and athletes. After all, who wouldn’t want to be like them? Get them into the plan. If you get famous, rich people whom every teenager knows they will probably influence adolescents a whole lot more than Public Service Announcements. Adolescence is a great age group to target if we want to save the Earth. After all, they are going to be the future, but they aren’t so young as to be controlled by their parents or guardians. After all, we need to think about the future world. And the best way to construct the future is to have that future make the blueprints. I’m sure no one has forgotten the oil spill that occurred in the Gulf of Mexico not too long ago. When I read that the only “sentence†BP got for the spill was to pay for cleanup and other damage, I was horrified! An oil company such as that one is rolling in money. Money isn’t the solution to everything! And why is it that a person can go to jail for a lot less serious reasons, but a company that killed so many beings can’t? You probably know more about this than I do, but I think it would be a good idea to put some boundaries on factories and oil companies, if only for the sake of our environment. Those companies won’t have any lasting damage if the get a little less money. As President of the United States of America, you have a powerful image. Almost no sane person can contradict you. The best way to use this image to change the world is to influence car companies into becoming hybrid. You could also influence civilians to buy hybrid cars, maybe even possibly create a scheme, such as getting 30% off of a hybrid of their choice if they turn in their old car. If everyone in the country decides to drive hybrid, think of what a difference it could make. Getting everyone to drive hybrid could possibly stop the ozone layer above America from melting(which is bound to happen if we don’t stop burning fossil fuels). I have just given you a few suggestions for saving our beautiful planet. You know how sometimes once optimistic and bright people went depressed and slightly crazy after drug abuse? Well waste is Mother Earth’s drug without the addiction or high. If we keep polluting her, astronauts in space will see the lush greens and sparkling blues we see now, but a dull dirty gray. The most beautiful, thriving planet in the solar system will be reduced to ashes. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The prompt was, "write a letter to obama explaining why it was important to conserve the environment and how can we do it"Im not going to say what grade I actually recieved on it because I dont want to influence anybody's opinion.

Wow, good for you. Enjoy the life while you can. If you can get in contact with some travel companies / magazines maybe you can write some travel articles. How old are you? If you are realtively young 18 to about 30 maybe you can earn some money on the beach if you go there. One thing you need to remember. If you are not a citizen of that country, then you may be violating the laws of that country by not having a work permit. I see you will be hitting a lot of countries that require visas in advance. Have you taken care of all your visas? http://www.samspassport.com Whatever happens, enjoy your trip.

I would cut back my intinerary to say this time the Dominican Republic and Cuba. Save it for another time and go for Mexico through Costa Rica by bus, not expensive and good buses Then fly to the mainland of South America, Colombia or Venezuela. In Colombia you can take a boat down the Amazon from Letiicia, Colombia Work is not easy to come by and pays little
