A Chilling Commentary on America's Future
Exclusive commentary by Frosty Wooldridge

An unarmed army invades the United States daily. While we spend billions of dollars protecting borders around the world, invaders carrying little more than the clothes on their backs march across the Rio Grande. Each day, according to U.S. Border Patrol estimates, an average of 2,000 illegal aliens cross into America. Their numbers exceed 10 million. They wreck havoc with our infrastructure, schools, language, jobs and medical facilities.
In Washington, DC recently, at an immigration-overpopulation conference, I was a member in the audience that heard former Colorado Governor Richard D. Lamm present a profoundly sobering speech, How to Destroy America.
During the conference, speaker after speaker enlightened the audience with facts on how fast the American Dream vanishes for average citizens. Speakers showed how
H-1B and L-1 visas ripped one million high tech jobs out of American worker’s hands. Another speaker told a packed audience how ‘offshoring’ and ‘outsourcing’ have cost over three million American jobs. Victor Davis Hansen, author of Mexifornia, explained how immigration was destroying California. Moments later, Lamm presented his eight-point chilling speech.
Lamm said, “If you believe that America is too smug, too rich, then let’s destroy America. 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.â€
“Here is how they did it,†Lamm said. “First, 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. 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, 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.â€
Lamm continued, “Invent ‘multiculturalism’ and encourage immigrants to maintain their own culture. 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 minority dropout rates are due to prejudice and discrimination by the majority. Every other explanation is out of bounds.â€
“We could make the United States a ‘Hispanic Quebec’ without much effort. The key is to celebrate diversity rather than unity. As Benjamin Schwarz said in the ATLANTIC MONTHLY: “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 ethnocentrically and what it meant to be an American, we are left with only tolerance and pluralism to hold us together.â€
Lamm added, “I would encourage all immigrants to keep their own language and culture. Replace the melting pot metaphor with the salad bowl metaphor. It is important to ensure that we have various cultural subgroups living in America reinforcing their differences rather than as Americans, emphasizing their similarities.â€
“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.â€
“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 their lack of success was the fault of the majority.â€
“My sixth plan for America’s downfall would include dual citizenship and promote divided loyalties. 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. In that historical reality, if we put the emphasis on the ‘pluribus’ instead of the ‘unum, we can balkanize America as surely as Kosovo.â€
“Next to last, 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.â€
“Having made America a bilingual--bicultural country, having established multiculturalism, 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 sympatric and ignore the cumulative impact of millions of them."
Governor Lamm wiped his brow, “Lastly, I would censor Victor Davis Hanson’s book ‘MEXIFORNIA’. It exposes the plan to destroy America.â€
As a side note, Lamm did not discuss horrific numbers of diseases being imported into America from the Third World. In the past four years, 16,000 new cases of tuberculosis, 7,000 cases of leprosy, 100,000 cases of hepatitis and other diseases such as Exotic New Castle, Dengue Fever and Chagas Disease. Also not mentioned is America’s march toward adding 200 million more people by mid century. We are creating unsolvable problems with irreversible crises. The more extreme our numbers the more extreme our consequences.
No one applauded. A chilling apprehension rose like an ominous cloud above every attendee at the conference. Each American in that room knew that everything Lamm enumerated was proceeding methodically, quietly, darkly, yet pervasively across the United States today. Every discussion is being suppressed. Over 100 languages are ripping the foundation of our educational system and national cohesiveness. Barbaric cultures that practice female genital mutilation are growing as we celebrate ‘diversity’. American jobs are vanishing into the Third World as corporations immigrate the Third World into America—take note of California and other states—to date, 10 million illegal aliens and growing, fast.
Flash-back to 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.†It dawned on everyone at the conference that our nation and the future of this great republic are in trouble and worsening fast. An invasion of diseases, clashing cultures, languages, balkinization, mounting environmental dilemmas accelerate by the day. If this immigration monster isn’t stopped, it will rage across the United States like a California wildfire and destroy everything in its path, especially the American Dream.
