Once more we are witnessing a courageous American running for the office of the presidency and falling victim to the smear of hypocrites and their political stooges who practice the very thing they charge him with - racism.
It is unfortunate that Pat Buchanan's co-chairman, Larry Pratt, could not take the heat and decided to take the wimp route by resigning. Now Buchanan must replace him with a person who has the courage to stick it out, come what may.
If this nation had general political intelligence, Pat Buchanan would be elected by a landslide. Time and again he has demonstrated the courage to tackle those controversial and sensitive issues which plague the nation. Contrast this to those political wimps who dare not tread where he does. Pat tells it like it is.
