"Upon what authority would a president use the armed forces of the United States to attack nations that did not attack us? The men and women of the U.S. military volunteer to defend America--its honor, citizens, and vital interests--not to serve as Hessians of a New World Order. What criteria would our global bounty hunters use to decide which tyrants were to be destroyed? This thinking is sophomoric. The declaration of such a policy would instantly isolate America by convincing any remaining allies that America had taken terminal leave of its senses and further association with us was dangerous folly. Not every beast needs to be hunted down and killed; some are best left alone to live and die in their part of the forest."
--Pat Buchanan, A Republic, Not an Empire, 1999
Is there any doubt that Pat Buchanan would make one of the finest Presidents this country has ever seen?
Yes, but it is a good quotation anyway.
Yes it is. And it's just one of many from a clear thinking conservative who sticks to facts and principles.
That's why, unfortunately, he would never get elected.
