VXXC, your hostility is disappointing. I’m not even suggesting this be done for the United States. If you have a non-Progressive case for limited franchise republics you will have to make it. Maybe spam Machiavelli quotes like Evola, but don’t just pretend that a case doesn’t have to be made.

We don’t have an example of a limited franchise republic that lasted; they expanded it until they reached democracy or fell into tyranny. The exception to this, aristocratic republics such as that of Venice are something I take seriously, but see “back to the Constitution!” types basically completely ignore. Sad because the people who wrote the constitution didn’t.

Social Experimentation/Low Hanging Fruit indeed. What’s wrong, running out of students to exploit as debt slaves?

The 5 cheerer has no stake in this nation or particular understanding of America. He sees Yugoslavia wherever he goes and will want to experiment with us as Mulligan for Yugoslavia.

The Intellectual Class is dependent on government largesse and sees beloved Govt is bankrupt. The Monarch is to save the Government, not the Nation.

@Sam,

Exactly.

Silliness abounds. The people talking Monarchy are upset with Democracy. We have a track record of a reasonably competent government structure that works: Limited-Franchise Republic. The same chattering nabobs who killed that are now harping for Kings. I’m not so sure people with crowns and guards with fuzzy hats will change our lives for the better. The evidence suggest not.
