The words and the logic of this speech have nearly disappeared entirely from our contemporary political discourse and our current thinking.
Most of us secretly aspired to "economic royalty." I guess once the New Deal was legislated, everybody thought the fight was over and went out to pasture.
Now we find ourselves pitted against the same enemy, newly entrenched in our government, reaching farther and more aggressively than ever for the reins of economic and political domination.
New kingdoms were built upon concentration of control over material things. Through new uses of corporations, banks and securities, new machinery of industry and agriculture, of labor and capital-all undreamed of by the fathers-the whole structure of modern life was impressed into this royal service.
Send out the minutemen. Spread the word. "The Bushists are coming! The Bushists are coming! To arms! To arms!"
