Dr. Wilson has written an excellent book that every Republican and Independent
should read. He exposes the true Republican Party of Lincoln and Bush. However,
hopefully, Trump will change the Republican Party from an establishment party
to a grass-root party, which the establishment disdain.
The Republic Party, the Stupid
Party, is not what Democratic Party, the Evil Party, or even -rank-and-file
Republicans believe it is. The Republic Party is a void reflection of the
Democratic Party — only worse. Dr. Wilson illustrates the major difference
between the two parties as follows: “Democrats. Someone thinks that the purpose
of government is to provide welfare for bureaucrats, minority groups, and rich
people. Republican. Someone thinks that the purpose of government is to provide
welfare for rich people, bureaucrats, and minority groups.” Unlike the
Democratic Party, which really does represents its voters, the Republican Party
does not. “It only represents itself.”
As Wilson explains, the Republican
Party is not a conservative party, and its national leaders are not
conservatives. Moreover, although Southerners have, for the most part,
supported the Republican Party since the late 1960s, the Republican Party is
the antipathy of the South. After all, it is the party of Lincoln: big
government, government-business partnership, Wall Street (Wall Street also
controls the Democratic Party), and centralized banking. Unlike the Democratic
Party, which has principles, the Republican Party has none. Its primary
objective is to get candidates elected — hence, the long string of campaign
slogans and dull, mediocre, noncommittal candidates. To paraphrase President
Nixon, Republicans give conservatives the rhetoric and liberal the action. That
is, the typical Republican, especially at the national level, speaks like a
conservative, but votes and acts like a liberal or progressive. Furthermore,
the Republican Party is not an opposition party. It is “a self-serving,
principles organization” that “is merely a device maintained by the ruling
elite to absorb and neuter discontent — a somewhat prettified carbon copy of
the dominant party.”
Dr. Wilson writes with wit. If
you are not self-delusional, Wilson will make you chuckle as he has a knack for
expressing the truth in a humorous way.
