Pretty good article. I think you'd get a lot out of deeper study into the ethnic enclaves that founded this country, and how they later changed it to better fit their unique ethnic consciousness. The book "American Nations" by Colin Woodward is a good book on his arena, but he's kind of a libtard. Sectionalism Archive in his "Yankee in King Davis Court" mentions something I think you'd find interesting too.

Davis specifically said the civil war was caused by the South largely being settled by Norman Cavaliers and Scottish Jacobites with the North mostly being settled by Anglo Roundheads. Something you said about the Irish and Italians not totally fitting in, it made me think about this.

Why did the Irish eventually meld? Where did the Italians mostly set up shop? What of the Slavs, and how do they relate to this land that's different to Anglos? What of the Scots, like myself, who have been here from the start? The French and Spanish?

I often think of the industrial era Germans, some of whom brought over "Uber-liberalism" and other outdated liberal notions from that era.

America has at least 4 or five foundational ethnos within our nation, maybe more. We are like Great Britain in that sense.

Your ideology given this piece intrigues me. National Socialism, but in a small government sort of way. I suppose at that point you'd just drop the Socialism part. Not to be a Conservatard, but Socialism=Big Government isn't too much of a stretch. How do you see it?
