Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo. |
PALM BEACH, Fla. – President Bush believes America should be more of an idea than an actual place, a Republican congressman told WND in an exclusive interview.
"People have to understand what we're talking about here. The president of the United States is an internationalist," said Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo. "He is going to do what he can to create a place where the idea of America is just that – it's an idea. It's not an actual place defined by borders. I mean this is where this guy is really going."
Tancredo lashed out at the White House's lack of action in securing U.S. borders, and said efforts to merge the U.S. with both Mexico and Canada is not a fantasy.
"I know this is dramatic – or maybe somebody would say overly dramatic – but I'm telling you, that everything I see leads me to believe that this whole idea of the North American Union, it's not something that just is written about by right-wing fringe kooks. It is something in the head of the president of the United States, the president of Mexico, I think the prime minister of Canada buys into it. ...
"And they would just tell you, 'Well, sure, it's a natural thing. It's part of the great globalization ... of the economy.' They assume it's a natural, evolutionary event that's going to occur here. I hope they're wrong and I'm going to try my best to make sure they're wrong. But I'm telling you the tide is great. The tide is moving in their direction. We have to say that."
Tancredo was in South Florida joining the likes of media giants Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Ann Coulter at a four-day event called "Restoration Weekend" which concluded today. The gathering was hosted by the David Horowitz Freedom Center.
He pointed to Florida's largest city as an example of how the nature of America can be changed by uncontrolled immigration.
"Look at what has happened to Miami. It has become a Third World country," he said. "You just pick it up and take it and move it someplace. You would never know you're in the United States of America. You would certainly say you're in a Third World country."
He said quickly changing demographics can cause big problems, and specifically cited the "Islamization of Europe" in recent years which has led to conflict across the continent.
Tancredo isn't the only congressman warning about plans to integrate the three nations of this continent.
Rep. Ron Paul, a maverick Republican from Texas, denounced plans for the proposed "NAFTA superhighway" in his state as part of a larger plot for merger of the U.S., Canada and Mexico into a North American Union.
As WND reported this month, Enrique Berruga, Mexico's ambassador to the United Nations, came right out and said a North American Union is needed – and even provided a deadline.
Berruga said the merger must be complete in the next eight years before the U.S. baby boomer retirement wave hits full force.
Tancredo – a heavyweight champion of the border-security issue, and whose new book on how to solve that vexing problem, titled "In Mortal Danger," became an immediate best seller – just may be elected president, Fox News's Neil Cavuto said recently.
"Illegals coming into America are sure to be front and center in the next presidential election here," Cavuto said on a June broadcast of "Your World with Neil Cavuto," "and Republican Congressman Tom Tancredo certainly knows it. He owns this issue. And straw polls show that, if he were to run for president, he just might well be president."

DEBKAfile Exclusive: Israeli cabinet crisis sparked by accelerated Palestinian missile offensive. Olmert prepares defense minister’s ouster
November 20, 2006, 9:50 AM (GMT+02:00)
DEBKAfile’s political sources report prime minister Ehud Olmert is preparing to sack Labor leader Amir Peretz. They expect the post to be offered to the former Labor leader, prime minister, chief of staff Ehud Barak, with ex-Shin Beit director, ex-navy commander Ami Ayalon as his deputy. Olmert plans to offer Peretz the social welfare post with broad powers.
The prime minister’s first move Monday, Nov. 20, was a complaint that Peretz, by communicating directly with Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas, had jeopardized his own secret efforts to achieve a ceasefire with the Palestinians. Olmert has hitherto hesitated to provoke his senior coalition partner by this move - despite the clamor by politicians and the public after the Lebanon war - for fear that the head for security failures would then be directed full blast at himself. Both are accused of missteps for lack of experience in security matters. For the same reason, Peretz held back over sacking the chief of staff.
However, Olmert’s hand is now forced by the acute crisis over the government’s failure to subdue the escalating missile attacks from Gaza. It is coupled by criticism from the ministers of his own Kadima as well as Labor members for a cabinet reshuffle to demote Peretz - partly over his incompetence and partly to clear the way for the contest for a new Labor leader. Peretz’s rivals are no longer willing to wait for the scheduled Labor leadership vote in May.
DEBKAfile’s sources add that Olmert hopes Peretz will move over willingly. To make the welfare portfolio more attractive, he is asking vice prime minister Shimon Peres to relinquish Negev and Galilee development planning and attach it to the social welfare portfolio.
The prime minister hopes that by bolstering defense with two experienced former generals he will lift his falling popular rating, improve the look of his Kadima party and, above all, prolong his cabinet’s life expectancy. He may not find it plain sailing. Our sources report that Peretz’s Labor backers led by education minister Yuli Tamir are spoiling for a fight. They may threaten to topple the Olmert government by a Labor walkout if he goes through with demoting their leader sideways.
