More importantly, nowadays in the academy and beyond, the patriotism that marked Samuel Huntington's life and work is derided

Not just derided. Forbidden and purged. Huntingdon's story reminds me that tenure protects not only incompetents but patriots who would otherwise be run out of the university by the moonbats who run these asylums.

"distinct Anglo-Protestant culture of the founding settlers of America in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries."

right...then Catholics came along and built hospitals and schools.

He wrote in that book of the "American Creed,"

I rememeber the American's Creed from highschool but haven't heard of it in decades. I wonder if anyone still learns it or repeats it anymore. Most liberals could not recite it without lying.
