Principle vs. Populism: The U.S.A.’s Last Chance
by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.
As the U.S.A. plunges into what is, so far, the 2012 election debacle, Lyndon LaRouche looks back at some of our earlier Presidents—some scoundrels, some sublime, and some who combined elements of both—and concludes that at no time in our history have we been confronted with such a daunting challenge in choosing a President. “The case of the misguided personal voter,” LaRouche writes, “is among the most crucial of those dangers to our republic which must be faced in the current approach to the coming U.S. general election of 2012.” The existential challenges we now face to the continued existence of humanity on this planet demand that the political parties and the voters reject populist sophistries, and adopt the fundamental principles that will guide us out of the looming catastrophe.
