  • Patrick Joseph Buchanan, “Culture War Speech: Address to the Republican National Convention” (17 August 1992)
    Voices of Democracy 7 (2012): 47‐59 Miller 47 PATRICK JOSEPH BUCHANAN, “CULTURE WAR SPEECH: ADDRESS TO THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION” (17 AUGUST 1992) Eric C. Miller Bloomsburg University of Pennsylvania Abstract: Patrick Buchanan's speech from the 1992 Republican National Convention is frequently cited as a definitive artifact of the culture wars of the late twentieth century. After challenging President George H.W. Bush in the Republican Primary, Buchanan agreed to endorse Bush in exchange for a primetime speaking slot at the RNC in Houston. Having attacked Bush over tax policy, Buchanan drew on social issues to stir passions and unite the GOP behind Bush's candidacy. Keywords: Buchanan, Bush, culture war, family values, Republican National Convention On August 17, 1992, conservative commentator Patrick J. Buchanan addressed the Republican National Convention, delivering a speech that would long be remembered as the definitive statement of the American "culture war." Diagnosing the national condition as one of spiritual decline, Buchanan neatly divided the American populace into two competing camps— one that was traditional, patriotic, and conservative, and another that was radical, deviant, and fiercely liberal. A vote for George H. W. Bush, Buchanan declared, was a vote for the former; a vote for William Jefferson Clinton was a vote for the latter. If Americans were to emerge from their spiritual descent and return to the "Judeo‐Christian" values upon which the nation was founded, it was vital that they support of the Republican ticket. Couched in the language of warfare, the stakes of Buchanan's vision were unmistakably high. But in order to understand Buchanan's argument—indeed, to understand why he was afforded a speaking slot at the RNC in the first place—one must first understand a few things about his life, career, politics, and the context in which these events unfolded.

  • Controversial Political Activist Angela Bay Buchanan to Speak at Cal Poly April 6
    News & Events University News & Information California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, California April 1, 2004 Contact: Blake Bolton Cal Poly College Republicans (858) 382-0822 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Controversial Political Activist Angela Bay Buchanan to Speak at Cal Poly April 6 SAN LUIS OBISPO -- Continuing its Conservative Lecture Series, the Cal Poly College Republicans, a student club, is hosting Angela Bay Buchanan in an on-campus speech Tuesday, April 6, beginning at 7 p.m. in the silo of the Orfalea College of Business building. Buchanan will speak on the failures of feminism and the rights of the unborn child, among other conservative issues, said club spokesman Blake Bolton. "Her speeches on college campuses have been very heated, and spark controversy with liberal faculty and students," Bolton said. Buchanan is president of American Cause, an educational foundation dedicated to advancing traditional conservative issues. She has also served as the campaign chairman for all of her brother Pat Buchanan's presidential campaigns. Currently, Buchanan is a regular political analyst for "Inside Politics" on CNN, where she debates Donna Brazile. From September 1996 through August 1999, Bay co-anchored "Equal Time," a political talk show on CNBC and then MSNBC. In addition, she worked as a political analyst for "Good Morning America" throughout the general election in 1992. From 1996-1997, Buchanan hosted a two-hour radio talk show covering current events. Buchanan began her political career as the National Treasurer of Ronald Reagan's presidential campaigns in 1980 and 1984. In 1981, then-President Reagan appointed her to serve as Treasurer of the United States.

Not only must the new and old presidents coordinate practical, bureaucratic matters, but in the United States, the president-elect is put through an 11-week legitimation ritual. As his status is transformed from campaigner to president, his words and actions in various situations are viewed as tests of strengths, weaknesses, vision, prudence, negotiative skill, humanity, fiber, and resolve. Not only is he tested but his words and actions are read by the press, commentators, and bloggers as signs of good or bad fortune for the country, just as the augurs of old read natural signs before momentous events.

There are four steps you should take to authenticate these notes: 1) Check for raised printing • This is the only security feature that is found on these notes. The raised printing feature is discussed on the page 6. 2) Make sure that lines and points on the bill are distinct and unbroken • Depending on the sophisication of the counterfeit, lines and points may be unclear and/or blurry. However, modern printing technology has become advanced and afford able enough that a great deal of counterfeits have distinct and unbroken lines and points, which is why you should also: 3) Check that the paper that the bill is printed on does not glow under UV light • The paper that real money is printed on absorbs light as opposed to reflecting it, which gives it a dull appearance under UV light. However, a favored method of counterfeiting money is to bleach lower denominations, such as a $1 bill, and print higher denominations, such as a $20 bill, onto of it; such a counterfeit would look like a real bill under UV light, which is why you should also: 4) Know what the denominations look like and know when major design changes occurred • It is helpful to know when major design changes occurred so that you do not turn away a real bill; just because a design on an old bill is slightly different than what you’re used to for more modern bills does not necessarily mean that it is fake.
