"A lucid piece. But, it leaves open the question as to whether any reconciliation between Americans and Statists is possible."
A succinctly stated, clear distinction. Nice.
Considering my position that "America is an Idea"...it makes perfect sense to me that those who hold the Constitutional Idea are Americans...and those that who believe in the primacy of the State, are, in fact, not Americans.

How about a link so we can, you know, have some context?
ReplyDeleteSpecific context was not really the point. The difference between those that believe in the American Idea...and those that think that THE STATE is the answer is the point. I love that the commentor distinguished them as "Americans" and "Statists". And I love all that that simple distinction implies.
