Seth Leibsohn: A Time for Choosing

In 1964, Ronald Reagan delivered a famous speech called “A Time for Choosing.”  A few years earlier, Paul Harvey delivered a famous broadcast entitled “The Testing Time.”  In those days of a heated fight against Marxism abroad and an aggressively expansive welfare state at home, we needed to be warned about a lot of decisions before us.

Both Marxism and the welfare state are here at home now. We are in such times again—times that are testing us, times where we are forced to choose, once again, not between right and left but up or down.

These times are brought to us by the same philosophies too regnant in the 1960s, revived by a leftist professoriate dominating our education system for over three decades, churning out millions and millions of students soaked in the study and praise of anti-Western curricula and Marxism.

They are also brought to us by a Democratic party so thirsty for votes they have complied and endorsed with candidates representing those radical views. 

This is why this election is crucially important.
