Are Americans Headed Toward a Civil War? The cycle Kevin Phillips saw from the 17th century to the 19th may resurface in the 21st.

Are Americans headed toward a civil war? We’ve already had one, so we know it’s within the realm of possibility. In fact, by one reckoning, the English speakers have had two other civil wars in the last four centuries, spaced out every hundred or so years. Is there some sort of deep cycle at work here?

For most of the second half of the 20th Century, we were in a Cultural War with the Left; however, conservatives didn’t realize it, and certainly didn’t act like it, and therefore we lost the Cultural War.

How can you expect to win a war you don’t participate in?

If you question or doubt that Democrats have declared war on traditional moral values, conservatives, our republic, our Constitution, consider a few of the actions, views, beliefs, policies, programs of the new Democrats:
