Pat Buchanan Appears On "Pro-White" Radio Show

October 23, 2011 7:02 pm ET by Eric Hananoki

On Saturday night, Pat Buchanan appeared on the white nationalist radio program The Political Cesspool to promote his new book. During the nearly twenty-five minute interview, Buchanan attacked the country's increasing diversity and warned that America would face numerous problems when whites become a minority.

Buchanan has a long history marred by bigotry and hostility toward minorities. He recently released a new book, Suicide of a Superpower, which claims that America is disintegrating as whites lose their majority status. Buchanan also serves as a political analyst for MSNBC -- an affiliation that was mentioned by host James Edwards after the interview and on the program's website.

The Political Cesspool describes itself as representing "a philosophy that is pro-White ... We wish to revive the White birthrate above replacement level fertility and beyond to grow the percentage of Whites in the world relative to other races."

The Anti-Defamation League has criticized Edwards for having "white supremacist views" and interviewing "a variety of anti-Semites, white supremacists, Holocaust deniers, conspiracy theorists and anti-immigrant leaders." The Southern Poverty Law Center wrote in 2007 that The Political Cesspool host "has probably done more than any of his contemporaries on the American radical right to publicly promote neo-Nazis, Holocaust deniers, raging anti-Semites and other extremists" and that his program "has become the primary radio nexus of hate in America."

The SPLC notes that The Political Cesspool's guest roster reads like a "Who's Who" of radical racists, with guests like "white supremacist" Sam Dickson; "white supremacist" Paul Fromm; anti-Semitic professor Kevin MacDonald; and "neo-Nazi activist April Gaede." Edwards has also hosted former KKK leader David Duke, of whom Edwards writes: "Contrary to the false image of a drooling 'racist' that the MSM would like to paint, David is a very thoughtful, intelligent, and gracious individual." Edwards adds that he counts the anti-Semitic Duke "as a friend" and "I can honestly tell you that there is not a single negative thing that I can say about the man."

Edwards posts his thoughts on The Political Cesspool's website about topics like:

  • Slavery. "For blacks in the Americas, slavery is the greatest thing that ever happened to them. Unfortunately, it's the worst thing that ever happened to white Americans." August 11, 2008.
  • LGBTs. "Fags"; "perverts"; "sodomites"; "Until 1973, the American Psychiatric Association rightly listed homosexuality as a mental illness. It still is, of course, just no longer an officially listed one. Political correctness took care of that." April 21, 2009; July 11, 2011; July 6, 2011
  • Jews. "I have no idea why so many people dislike Jews ... This appeared on Daily Kos yesterday. The author is Tim Wise, a well known Jewish anti-white activist. I'm reprinting it here, bad language and all, so people can get a glimpse into how the people who really run this country think. To put it bluntly, people like Tim Wise are filled with a venomous hatred of white people like you and me. And they run Washington, Wall Street, and the news and entertainment media." November 4, 2010.
  • Martin Luther King Jr.: "MLK's dream is our nightmare." February 9, 2011.
  • Whether "interracial marriage should be illegal": "Despite constant brainwashing and relentless media propaganda, there still remains a great number of people in Mississippi who adhere to the values of their parents. ... The media will predictably dismiss the voters of Mississippi as 'hicks' and 'rednecks,' but their opinion on this matter is perfectly legitimate." April 8, 2011. 
  • "Interracial sex." "One of the most popular movies right now is Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants: 2, which is being marketed directly to teenage girls. It's been out about a week and has already grossed almost $25 million dollars. What's it about? White girls having sex with non-whites. Which is white genocide. ... Interracial sex is white genocide. Period." August 14, 2008.
  • Women in the military. "Women have many natural gifts that men don't have. A man, for instance, could never properly fill the vitally important maternal role that women (used to) play, but dressing up and pretending to be a soldier isn't what God had in mind for the fairer sex. How intimidating do you think it would be to see a platoon of homosexuals and women (and homosexual women) charging a bunker? Do you think we could have taken the beach at Normandy with an army like that? That's a serious question. The answer, of course, is no." September 21, 2011.

During the interview, Buchanan warned about the consequences of whites becoming a minority in America:

EDWARDS: Moving on to another aspect of your excellent new book, which I have a review copy right here on my desk in the studio, you write that white America is an endangered species. Pat, what's America going to look like if indeed whites do become extinct?  

BUCHANAN: Well, I don't think whites are going to become extinct. But certainly not in the near future. But what is happening, as you see in California, where Americans of European descent are already a minority and that is true in Texas and it is true, I believe, there is one other, New Mexico and Hawaii. And in this decade, I think, six more states will pass the tipping point where whites become a minority.

I think the best way to understand what America will look like is to look at California today. I think that is pretty much what America will look like. The Hispanic population will be immense. A 150 -- excuse me, 135 million, according to the Census Bureau statistics, and if you look at California, the golden land, which used to have -- I mean everybody went there, it was paradise. The soldiers who went out to the Pacific came home, went through there, and then went out and made their homes. And what is happening out there, James, is that -- I mean, look at the bond ratings, it's at the lowest in the country. The taxes are enormously heavy, they're on the well-to-do and the successful. It is what they're doing in the country now and these folks are leaving the state and many of the poor, illegal immigrants, one-third of them head for California, you've got a black-brown war of the underclass going on in Los Angeles, according to Sheriff Lee Baca, in the gangs and in the prison, and of course the welfare state is bankrupting California. And they've got some of the highest taxes in the nation. So I think--this is what the country is going to look like.

Buchanan was asked later in the program by Edwards about his chapter on the "cult" of diversity:  

EDWARDS: You know, when you talk about the cult of diversity in the book, and this is a follow-up to the topic that we're on, it seems as though the white politicos who are explicitly involved, they seem to work against their own group interests, rather than for them, as the minorities do. Again, this chapter that you write on the cult of diversity, I have to ask this question, why do white liberals remain entranced by diversity when the social and cultural effects of diversity are almost entirely negative for themselves and their children and grandchildren.

Buchanan replied: "Well, I think there's many people candidly who -- I've been asked on radio, that 'what is wrong if a -- I mean, why isn't it a really good thing when whites become a minority nationwide and we're all part of minorities?' And I say, you know, this thing, I mean, real problems are attendant to this" and cited "racial preferences and affirmative action." Buchanan added that white males are "really the ones who are the  victims of affirmative action, not the beneficiaries, and yet they're thirty percent of the country but they're seventy-five percent of the dead  and wounded coming back from Afghanistan. That's not a formula for social peace." 

Buchanan also told Edwards that he thinks America will "be a Balkanized country, sort of a Tower of Babel" when whites are no longer in the racial majority.

Edwards complimented Buchanan throughout the interview, telling him that his book "is an epic. It's thicker than the Bible, and like the Good Book, there's not a wasted word in it." Edwards called Buchanan a "true hero" who inspired him to become politically active -- Edwards served as a delegate for Buchanan in 2000 -- and told his listeners that he wanted to see the book at number one on Amazon by the time the interview was over.

Buchanan's interview gained notice over the weekend among a certain segment of Buchanan's fan base. The white supremacist group Council of Conservative Citizens promoted the interview on its website. And the National Policy Institute, which the SPLC describes as a "white supremacist think tank," posted the interview on its NPI TV page.

It's extremely unlikely that Buchanan was unaware of the program's views when he appeared on the program. Media Matters, The Southern Poverty Law Center and The Anti-Defamation League criticized Buchanan for previously appearing on the program. Buchanan guested in 2006 and 2008. In a 2008 press release, ADL National Director Abraham Foxman said of Buchanan, "It's not as if he did this by accident." Foxman added, "Anyone who would have made inquiries into the nature of this program would have realized that it is an outlet for racism, anti-Semitism and hate."

At the conclusion of the interview, Edwards reminisced with Buchanan about "mutual friend[s]" Linda Muller (who runs Buchanan.org) and Marcus Epstein, who helped Buchanan with research on the book. Epstein, a writer and activist with a history of inflammatory statements about race and immigration, was previously arrested for attacking a woman with a "karate chop" and calling her the n-word.

        I don't know where you can place blame for that, mary, but I am not certain that it can be attributed to "nurture".

        I have a sister who, it surprised me to learn, is as racist as the day is long. She was raised under the same roof I was for 18 years. My step-dad was, while not a hippie or even part of the counter-culture, pretty open-minded. His friends included people from all walks of life and pretty much all races. We frequently had people over for dinner, bbq's, and general house parties who were not melanin-impaired in the least.

        I am a tolerant individual who barely notices someone's race until it is made into an issue. My sister is a bigot who notices race and acts on her bigotry before she is given any reason to do so.

          Not so surprising. We all possess at our core a primitive tribalism; it conferred a survival advantage in the Stone Age. Overcoming racism, which is a form of tribalism, requires that out higher faculties override those base instincts. Those who are less successful at this tend to be Republicans ;-)

      Pats racism is out of control. It is time for any media who expects to be taken seriously professionally to ban him from their air. It is time for society to just shun the man. This is 2011 not 1962. We should have grown up enough as a society that we no longer treat racists like Pat as if they deserve to be listened to

      Considering that there were gays in the Army and that there were surely some on the beach at Normandy I think they already answered that question.

        Oh, I don't know. Maybe the Germans would have been too stunned, confused and/or amused to fight well if the boys swished swiftly towards wearing high heels and feather boas, and the girls lumbered at them in plaid shirts and work boots.

        Seriously. What soldier, seeing armed enemies charging him, takes time to consider where they put their pork when they're not fighting? And if he does, he dies.

          There's a scene in the comedy movie "My Fellow Americans" which illustrates my point.

          A bit of backstory: My Fellow Americans features two ex-presidents (one Democrat, played by James Garner and one Republican played by Jack Lemmon) on the run from the government (yes) after they find out that current administration is taking kickbacks, which they're trying to lay at the Republican's feet. Anyway, while on the run and trying to get to the Republican's presidential library, they hitch a ride with the Dykes on Bikes.

          Afterwards, the Republican remarks, "After riding with those gals, I think I'm going to change my stance on a key issue. We could certainly use women like that in the military."

          Has anyone pointed out to this dropkick and his fellow travellers the debt that the Oh So Hallowed Founding Fathers of the U.S. owe to Prussian born Friedrich von Steuben, a "confirmed batchelor" who left Prussian service under a cloud.

          It was Steuben's experience as a Prussian Staff Officer that saved Washington's Continental Army from disintegration - from simple matters like digging latrines away from the living area at Valley Forge (disease was often a bigger threat than combat back then) to training in the use of the bayonet as well as musketry and devising Regulations for the Order and Discipline of the Troops of the United States the "Blue Book" that was in use up until 1812.

          I won't go on and list the many valiant and brilliant military commanders who happened to be gay but, basically, these nativist super patriots owe it all to a "Kraut horse's hoof"!

      Edwards uses the word "sodomites". I find this very interesting. He, of course, means homosexuals but this isn't what the Bible calls Sodomites.

      Indeed, what the Bible calls Sodomites might be more akin to the the modern Republican party.

      "'Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.'" --Ezekeiel 16:49-50 (NIV)

      Does Buchanan still work for MSNBC. If he does, the, MSNBC has lost all credibilatity. He is a racist, plain & simple. This is what's wrong with America today. Free speech is a noble and blessed right we enjoy, however coupled with that right is a tremendous responsibility to not be reckless and divisive. Where is the outrage from all of those within the incorrectly labled "mainstream liberal" media. Buchanan is a has been white racist who for some reason maintains a seat at the table.

      It's regrettable, extremely regrettable, that a whole new generation of racial haters are growing up -- or at least growing older and getting to adult size -- seething with racial resentment.

      I guess it just means that the battle is not over, that the struggle is a continuing one, and that success is still off somewhere in the future.

      These people are embarrassments to their race, i.e., the human one.

      I guess Herman Cain can count them out for future support.

      Buchanan and Edwards' hateful views should be extinct.

      Reality is a real problem for these conservative types. No wonder they cling to their absurd religions; they can't handle the real world.

        The real world: a scary, scary place where The Other can reproduce and have rights and culture and stuff. To bigots like Pat, that's the plot of a horror movie.

      The Anti-Defamation League has criticized Edwards for having "white supremacist views" and interviewing "a variety of anti-Semites, white supremacists, Holocaust deniers, conspiracy theorists and anti-immigrant leaders."


      It is strange that an outfit that endorses a "Jewish state" and opposes the right to return home, recognized under international law, of the indigenous Palestinian people who were ethnically cleansed would object to supremacist or anti-immigrant views.

      PB..the epitome of bigotry and racism in America today.. I yearn for the (albeit) short time in America when people of his ilk were condemned and vilified on a mass scale.. the acceptance of his particular brand of vitriol in today's discourse represents the true demise of America and it's ideals

      Wouldn't Hispanics also be Americans with European ancestry? Perhaps someone should give him an atlas and explain what country was one of the first European ones to arrive in the Americas and ask him how a European language made its way to this continent.

      pat pukecannon is no difference than jessie jackson, tavis smiley, bill o'reilly, ann coulter, and a host of others! They use shock value to sell books and make wha.........t, money! Like the other pukecannon knows there is a willing audience out there who will buy that crap! What makes it worse is that small portions taken in an isolated manner, seem true! But when looked at from a whole picture point of view, you see holes everywhere, but he'll be nowhere to be found for questioning. That's the trick--say it, spray it--and get out of the way!

      This dude should ONLY be allowed on shows such as these, and then he can be bounced from the mainstream attenion that he gets. Come on MSNBC, and or anyone who carries his writing, please don't ask him back. Ever.

      Why should someone lose their job for writing a book that explores demographic questions facing the nation in the future? Buchanan did not harass, ridicule, or advocate violence against a specific person. Even if people consider his ideas crazy or unpopular, these are words written on a page--it seems wrong to try to destroy a person for intangible ideas.

      You do know that only liberal whites value diversity. Arabs, tribal Blacks, La Raza, and Oriental countries such as China, Japan and Korea are very big on racial purity. White birth rates are so low that within 50 years America, Briton and France will be over run by the high birth rate immigrants. If you think being ruled by Mexicans or Algerians will be fun just move to one of these countries now. I don't mean the resort towns I mean the dirt poor areas that they don't show on the travel channel.

      If you think that it is wrong for whites to run things just wait, if you live another 50 years a Zimbabwe experience is coming for you.

      As a progressive I believe it is past due time for Media Matters to examine bias and lack of objectivity of the US media in general, instead of targeting only a few outliers such as Pat Buchanan. This bias is especially true regarding neocon beliefs, bias in reporting regarding Israel, and a thrust to involve the USA in conflicts that are none of our business.

      If Media Matters wants to strengthen US democracy then we need a demographic diversity study of the US media. The media should be as diverse in demographics as the nation, and the power should not be concentrated in the viewpoints of a few.

      The people need an analysis of the ethnic background of reporters, pundits, and talking heads, and major bloggers with an emphasis of commonality in background (education, geographic origin, religious heritage and ethnicity, politics, etc. all of which leads to commonality in views. Most especially we need to know factually if the US media is really controlled by those of common religious ethnicity as many have stated.

      Each and every American shares a culture and view that at its core has religious heritage and ethnicity as the most important factors in creating cultural viewpoints. Religion creates culture and common bond.

      I challenge Media Matters to do a fact based study on diversity (religious heritage and otherwise) in the USA media and how closely it represents the diversity of America, and especially does it over-represent any single group
