In "Where the Right Went Wrong," Patrick J. Buchanan offers a piercing critique of the modern Republican establishment, arguing that it has strayed perilously from the conservative principles that once defined it. With the United States standing unchallenged as a global superpower, Buchanan examines how this unprecedented dominance has not translated into beneficial outcomes for the nation. Instead, he posits, America finds itself despised across the globe, drowning in debt, and morally adrift. Through a meticulous dissection of the Bush administration's policies and the abandonment of conservative stalwarts like Taft, Goldwater, and Reagan, Buchanan reveals a GOP transformed into a champion of Big Government and a servant to corporate interests, far removed from its ideological roots. Buchanan's narrative delves into the hijacking of U.S. foreign policy by a neo-conservative cabal, whose misadventures, he argues, have not only failed to secure America but have also ignited a potentially endless conflict with the Islamic world. This, coupled with a trade policy that sacrifices national sovereignty on the altar of free trade, has jeopardized the very foundation of American independence and industrial might. "Where the Right Went Wrong" is a compelling and incisive call to action, urging a return to the true conservative values that once guided the nation to prosperity and respect on the global stage. Buchanan's work is not just a critique but a poignant reflection on the consequences of political ideology run amok, offering a roadmap for those seeking to reclaim the soul of American conservatism.

The Bush National Security Strategy is the imperial edict of a superpower out to exploit its present supremacy to make itself permanent Lord Protector of the universe.
