Even more relevant in 2003

I picked up this book on a whim at the airport discount bookstore for a song. When I started reading this book I was amazed how accurate Ms. Geyer had predicted the future (This book was written in 1996).One of the most important points of the book is that the weakening and outright destruction of the idea citizenship is the crux of many of America's problems. Not race or religion as some of the other reviews claim (I wonder if they actually read the book).I highly recommend reading this book for insights on possible ways we can avoid a balkanization of the USA. Bring back the strength of real Citizenship and strengthen this country for all of its citizens.America needs to be a melting pot with a common thread of freedom and American ideals (read 'real' citizenship), not a collection of groups with loyalties that lie elsewhere that are constantly lobbying for their rights over the good of the individual citizen.

speaks the truth

As someone who lived in southern California for a decade, I see the truth in this book. It may be too late already, but these issues should be seriously addressed. Left-wing hysterics will be sure to hate it, but they can't stop the argument by hurling epithets and making bogus comparisons to Nazi Germany and/or Stalinist Russia

For proof of this book, come live in Southern CA

Illegal immigration IS destroying America. As a so called evil white woman, it sickens me to see what is happened to CA. The Mexican population went from 20% to over 50% in THREE YEARS. I have first-hand experiences -- I was driven out of an apartment building in 1995 when about 30 illegal Mexicans moved into EACH apartment. There was an ever revolving sea of faces -- every day there were new people I had not seen before. And this was a FOUR UNIT apartment building!It is so bad out here, that we are made to feel ASHAMED for being white, and ASHAMED for speaking English. If we speak out against illegal immigration, then we are deemed as racists.We are slowly losing this country to people who just want to come here for government handouts, people who have NO desire to assimilate into our country or learn English.We are losing the war without guns -- be warned, government oppression is going to ARRIVE in the next 20 years. WHITE PEOPLE will be persecuted in this country, actively, within the next 20 to 40 years, YOU CAN COUNT ON IT!

If America Were To Decline: This Is How It Happens

American patriots will be forever grateful to Geyer for her ample contribution to reversing the decline of American citizenship. However, I doubt that people can shed their ethnicity as easily as she implies. Nor does she explain why immigrants are needed at all. Americans can give birth to the next generation of citizens, the same as all other nations. And if our citizenship is in need of repair, immigration isn't going to help.She blames ethnic problems on a few bad men stirring up trouble. That ethnic groups have leaders, tells us nothing about what an ethnic group is and why people feel attached to their ethnic group. Nor does this book. Ethnicity is consistently disparaged as in ANM: "... all the old differences and hatreds that divided men so murderously according to tribe, clan and creed." (p46) For every "ethnic hatred" example, I could give an example of "national hatred" or "country hatred." Please note that two World Wars were carried out by dozens of COUNTRIES not CLANs. What is an ethnic group? It is a group that customarily intermarries. That is simply the social nature of humans. What is evil about that?What is a nation? Unfortunately, this is not discussed. But I suggest it is one or more CLOSELY related ethnic groups, fully assimilable, that considers itself to be one people, of a right to sovereignty, independence and self government.The use of the term "hatred" stops discussion and thought processes. At the base of any ethnic conflict are people wanting to survive. People want their families and their ethnic groups to survive because these are the carriers of their genetic and cultural heritage. Land, independence, and security are key elements of survival. ANM: "When a multinational society has to accommodate so many different demands, which can include court procedures and public papers in many languages, in addition to actual changes in the laws to suit various cultural tastes, a country is inevitably bound not only to divide into conflictive camps but also to decline economically; there is simply no way that a country can with such expensive and disruptive demands, keep up with the much more easily functioning one-culture, one-language, and one-heritage countries." (p47,48) Is that the same as a homogeneous society? This gem of wisdom should be developed into a whole chapter. If one-heritage countries are so advantageous, why should we discourage their formation? Why don't we pursue it for ourselves, so far as is practical? If Bosnia wants to form one-heritage countries, why does this book oppose it?ANM: "Jim Daton, a political scientist and futurist at the University of Hawaii... saying in contemptuous terms about America: 'Nothing will be more rare in the future than a white person, and nothing may be less important than the white man's ways.'" (p88) Are we not discussing bloodless genocide? This is a subject few books dare to discuss. Unfortunately nothi

Honest, fact-filled, and "Politically Incorrect"

Don't let the liberals steer you away from this great and provocative book. The establishment that believes in open borders, massive non-White immigration, and the inherent equality of all races and ethnic groups hates this book. Georgie Ann Geyer defends her America like a White lioness defending her cubs against an attack of savage hyenas. It's also very interesting and well written. Oh course, we would expect that from this author.
