Who is Dismantling America? Dr. Thomas Sowell Takes the Pulse

Dr. Thomas Sowell discusses his latest book, Dismantling America.  The book’s focus is wide ranging, as is the discussion.  To take one example, Dr. Sowell questions whether most people understand what is meant by President Obama’s background as a “community organizer.”  A community organizer isn’t a friendly local expert doling out advice on better living, but is rather someone who mobilizes resentment at the behest of third party interests to put the public into battle on their behalf.

Dr. Sowell’s basic accusation of those who he believes are destroying America is that they do not–and have never–believed in the fundamental principles of the United States.  President Obama, he argues, has always sought out associates who share this skepticism.  Nevertheless, Obama is not responsible for the development of this thinking, but is rather the culmination of a long standing trend.  This trend has been happening rapidly under Democratic presidents and unfortunately persists ,albeit more slowly, under Republican presidents.
