Opinion of Pat Buchanan

[General White]

FF

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

One of the greatest Presidents we never had.

[DC Al Fine]

One of the few remotely sane commentators out there.

[Franzl]

Awful

[k-onmmunist]

horrible.

[Pheurton Skeurto]

Neutral, lean FF. He does say some things that make sense, but then again there was that whole racism thing...

[Lief 🗽]

racist scumbag

Anyone who thinks he's "sane" or "great" is a joke.

[Goldwater]

HP.

[Mad Deadly Worldwide Communist Gangster Computer God]

Sexist, anti-Semitic, racist, and homophobic.  HP.

[TNF]

Fascist. HP

[Gass3268]

HP, but I did read one of his books about how World War 2 was avoidable and pretty much Winston Churchill's fault. Was pretty interesting, definitely had some racial overtones and I don't know if I agreed with the overall point.   

[DC Al Fine]

Fascist. HP

If Buchanan lived in Nazi Germany, he'd be criticizing them for being godless big government types.

[Donerail]

Neutral. Lean FF.

[The Simpsons Cinematic Universe]

Homophobe. HP.

[Oldiesfreak1854]

Mild FF, for telling the truth about the 60s even when everyone else is accepting revisionist history.  And where is the evidence that he's a bigot?  I haven't seen any solid evidence aside from some statements that have probably been taken out of context.  My one complaint is that he said in one of his books that Nixon shouldn't have supported extending voting rights to 18-20-year olds.

Neutral, lean FF. He does say some things that make sense, but then again there was that whole racism thing...

[Anti-Illegal Immigration]

I think everyone here hates Pat because he wants to deport illegals and has great positions on illegals and wants to save america by deporting Illegals and ENDING the evil WTO/NAFTA.

[Lief 🗽]

And where is the evidence that he's a bigot?

[Maxwell]

HP. Like his position on war, but other than that, he's pretty bad.

Come on most of those quotes aren't racist, there just very nostalgic for an older America, and he has the right to believe that.

He's a massive protectionist, Pro-Drug War, massively socially conservative, and I clash with him on immigration (I'm a moderate on that issue).

Massive Protectionism is great it means jobs in america & defending america from giant corporations. I to am a Ultra Protectionist.

Massivly Socially Conservative is great to. I strongly am Very Socially Conservative.

His positions on Immigration are great but I am Far-right on Immigration.

I respect your opinion though & im guesing your Libertarian.

[Zioneer]

Politically speaking, he's a terrible bigot (especially concerning that article, I mean, "a new Jim Crow with the colors reversed?" "Overturning the verdict of 1848?" Seriously?), a hack, a former Nixon lackey, a possible anti-Semite, and a neo-authoritarian in some ways (mainly social policy).
