 VDARE.com: 07/17/03 - Dumb Neocon Ideas: Nominating Condi Won’t Win Black Votes for GOP
The dim idea of the week comes from Washington Times columnist Arnold Beichman, a 90-year-old neo-conservative wonderboy who has suffered a brainstorm--that the way for President Bush to win the election in 2004 is to demote Vice President Cheney to national security adviser and put current national security adviser Condoleezza Rice on the ticket.
Beichman's strategy, which assumes that fls are both sufficiently dumb and sufficiently racially obsessive to vote Republican if and only if a fl is on the ticket.
Beichman ignores what sorts of policies Miss Rice might support, admittedly a minor consideration when all you care about is winning the election, but nevertheless a matter that might sooner or later come up, especially since the grand design involves Miss Rice ascending to the presidency a few years later.

 Columbia College Today
As an undergraduate, Beichman attended a student journalists’ conference in Washington, D.C., at the then-segregated Mayflower Hotel, where he led a group of northern students who threatened to pull out of the conference if fl participants were not given due respect and apologies for poor treatment by some white southern conference-goers.
Beichman leaned over to Lenzner during the conference and said he thought all the rebellious students “should be sent to Vermont without their granola.” Since that day, Beichman has guided Lenzner through personal and journalistic ups and downs — acting as a “Dutch uncle,” Lenzner says, to himself and Joseph Lelyveld.
Beichman’s friends are bowled over by the sheer quantity of e-mail he sends — “He spends about 10 times as much time on the Internet swapping messages with people and sending articles to them as I do,” marvels Lelyveld, impressed by Beichman’s constant energy.

 Foreign Affairs - Book Review - The Long Pretense: Soviet Treaty Diplomacy From Lenin To Gorbachev - Arnold Beichman
Beichman takes his stand, as he has over a long career in observing international affairs, with those who see the Soviet Union as bent on world domination and ready to lie, cheat and commit any crime to get there.
Beichman is on firm ground in describing Soviet negotiating practices and treaty violations, although he seems unwilling to concede that some agreements have been kept, some have benefited the West and some have been advantageous to both sides.
Beichman remains deeply pessimistic because, he says, there is no fundamental democratizing change in the U.S.S.R., no abandonment of Marxism-Leninism.

 Herman Wouk -- The Novelist as Social Historian -- Arnold Beichman
Arnold Beichman's comprehensive study of the writings of Herman Wouk, one of America's leading writers, shows how Wouk's plays and novels exemplify an extraordinary and often highly perceptive preoccupation with American society in war and in peace.
Situating Wouk in the same literary tradition as Cervantes, Richardson, Balzac, and Dickens, Beichman demonstrates that Wouk's novels have strong plots, moralist outcomes, and active--essentially positive--characters.
Beichman portrays Wouk as one of the few living novelists concerned with virtue, and sees his work as against the mainstream of contemporary American novelists.

 Power Line: Two views of American exceptionalism
The two best pieces I read today were this column by George Will ("Why America Leans Right") and this one by Arnold Beichman ("Big Why of anti-Americanism").
Beichman quotes German economist Werner Sombart who stated, "On the reefs of roast beef and apple-pie, socialistic Utopias of every sort are sent to their doom." Will enlists a pair of Brits, John Mickethwait and Adrian Wooldridge, to show that this explanation is too materialistic.
I'd read Will's but hadn't seen Beichman, and I agree with Deacon that the two are complimentary.
