I do not always agree with everything Buchanan says or has said...that being said, it isn't a bad article and while brevity cannot always capture all of the aspects of relationships and movements on this large a scale, it is a decent attempt to encapsulate the currents swirling at this moment in time.

There definitely has to be some new thinking, new prioritization etc etc...if the overall direction is acceptable I suppose I can deal with the inevitable dislikes on a case by case basis...

If the globalists did anything,  it is to bring nationalism worldwide.  For good and bad.   At least many people worldwide see globalism is only good for the elite,  and that normal people worldwide really have nothing to gain by it.   In fact the opposite. 

Globalism will never work as there will always be tinpot dictators (North Korea),  and not so tinpot dictators (like Communist China) in the world that will only bring more corruption to global organizations.   Just look what they do with the UN.  Imagine those people in charge,,,,,,,of everybody.........

It's harder, not impossible, but definitely harder to convince everyday people to go along with this scheme...and it gets harder the more (subversively or overtly) oppressive your government is.  But once the seal is broken and the secret is out...it's hard to stuff that toothpaste back into the tube.

Hopefully more areas are in that can't stuff it back in phase.  Hollande backing off the race and Merkel getting an earful from an angry populace seems to indicate more troubles ahead for the globalist cabal.
