  American Conservative Union Foundation
Thomas Fleming, the brilliant editor of the self-styled paleoconservative magazine, Chronicles, deserves much of the blame for the founding of ConservativeBattleline.
Chronicles proclaims itself paleoconservative but I must confess that, after all of these years of regular readership, I do not know precisely what it is. Its writers say it differs from Frank Meyer, fusionist conservatism so it would be insulting on my part to claim we are the same.
Paleoconservatism presumably requires a politics not built on the ephemeral abstractions of the later but on the deep social resentments of the shunned European natives, the off-shore displaced industrial workers, and technology-dislocated lower middle class white collar workforce.

 WHAT IS PALEOCONSERVATISM? A ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION WITH THE EDITORS OF CHRONICLES   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
The paleoconservative believes that the federal government is one of limited and enumerated powers and that, as the Tenth Amendment provides, the powers not given to the federal government are reserved to the states, or to the people themselves.
The paleoconservative is equally alarmed by legislatures that seem cowed by overweening executives, and by a federal government that, in all three branches, has usurped the primacy in domestic policy that was supposed to belong to the states.
Hence, common paleoconservative goals should include (1) a long-term moratorium on all immigration, (2) the withdrawal of the federal government from involvement in all racial issues, and (3) the repeal of all federal laws and court decisions (including the civil-rights laws of the 1960’s and the rulings of the Warren Court) that authorize such involvement.

The greatest virtue of Scotchie’s book is that it makes perfectly clear (and even logically coherent) what the paleos believe and how their beliefs are related to their reactions to the conservatism of the 1980s and ’90s and the trends in American culture and politics they discuss.
