America is Thinking

  America is a vast and diverse country that is home to a wide range of people, cultures, and ideas. As a result, it is difficult to generalize what “America” is thinking at any given moment, as the views and opinions of Americans are as varied and multifaceted as the country itself. However, there are some broad trends and themes that can be observed in American society, particularly in terms of political and social issues. For example, in recent years, there has been a growing sense of political polarization in the United States, with many Americans feeling deeply divided along ideological lines. This has led to heated debates and disagreements over a range of issues, including immigration, healthcare, climate change, and gun control. Additionally, there has been a growing awareness and concern about issues of social justice and equality in America, particularly with regard to race, gender, and sexual orientation. Movements like Black Lives Matter and #MeToo have brought issues o...

American Nationalism

  American nationalism is a term used to describe the ideology that emphasizes the primacy of American identity, culture, and values. It has been an important concept in American history, shaping the country’s political and social landscape. One of the earliest expressions of American nationalism was during the American Revolution, when colonists rebelled against British rule and established a new, independent nation. This sentiment continued to develop in the decades that followed, as the United States expanded its territory and built a powerful industrial economy. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, American nationalism took on a more jingoistic character, with politicians and intellectuals promoting a sense of American exceptionalism and a belief in the country’s superiority over other nations. This was fueled in part by the country’s rise as a global superpower, as well as a desire to justify American imperialism abroad. During World War II, American nationalism became m...

Root Cause Analysis Delivers an Answer to our Race Fixation

  A reader told me, “My head hurts when I read your pieces!” I thought, “Good! You’re thinking for yourself now.” To a certain extent, writers are prisoners of a requirement to share stories that are either unique, new or put a different spin on something you thought you knew about already. Often, writings by well-known authors are either superficial or just plain inaccurate. Sadly, that doesn’t seem to stop them, though! I’m always looking for new or under-discussed subjects to tell important stories, which can enlarge an understanding of familiar themes. But taboo topics exist which have the power to hurt people or are so controversial that some of us are not ready to have those potentially divisive conversations. Yet, authors, thinkers, and others privately discuss subjects not generally aired openly. American Thinker  is a high-level thought-piece outlet for conservative-leaning writers. Due to editorial space restrictions, writers are limited in the depths of their argume...

How War Came to America

Image
  War is a tragic and complex event that can have far-reaching consequences for nations and individuals alike. In the case of America, the path to war has been marked by a series of complex events and decisions that have shaped the country’s history and identity. In this blog post, we will explore the factors that led to the outbreak of war in America. One of the primary factors that led to war in America was the issue of slavery. The question of whether or not slavery would be allowed to expand into new territories became a key issue in American politics in the mid-19th century. This debate ultimately led to the secession of several southern states and the formation of the Confederacy, which sparked the Civil War. Another factor that contributed to the outbreak of war in America was economic tensions between the North and South. The North was becoming increasingly industrialized, while the South remained largely agricultural. This led to tensions over trade and tariffs, which cont...
