9:49. Gov. Tim Pawlenty, the almost VP pick, whom I've never seen before, is talking on ABC. His message? In an America that is changing culturally and demographically, in which blacks and Hispanics don't vote Repubican, the GOP cannot be the majority party. So the GOP has to become more "pragmatic," and talk about real people's real needs. Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. The same GOP illusion! As if the GOP has not done everything under the sun to win blacks and Hispanic support, as though that has not been a continuing GOP obsession for years and years. Hey, Pawlenty, you're in a dream world. The only way the GOP can win among blacks and HIspanics is by becoming the Democratic party. That's what happens when you let America be transformed into a country of low-skill, nonwhite people with high illegitimacy rates who look to government to provide their needs. So there is only one way conservatism and Republicanism can survive long-term in America: not by treating "demographic change," i.e. the browning of America, as a god before whom we must automatically bow, but by treating it as an error that must be stopped and reversed. And that can be done, by stopping virtually all further non-European immigration, by getting all illegal aliens to leave, by re-asserting America's European-American majority culture and ceasing all special favors to nonwhites, and by white people gaining renewed confidence in the future and having more children. Maybe that's impossible. Maybe it's too late to turn this process of national suicide around. But how can we give up on the hope of doing it, when it's never even been tried?

But if it can't be done, if European America—its culture, its historical memory and identity, its ideals, its way of life, its intellectual and moral standards, its Constitution, its true freedoms—cannot be saved, then the only recourse for those who still care will be for traditional Americans to start gathering together in certain states and regions of the country and form governing majorities there, with the ultimate aim of becoming independent of the Brazilianized entity that the United States will have then become.

Racial solidarity behind a wall? Now that's something I can believe in.
