	American Renaissance News: Parallel Lives: William F. Buckley vs. Samuel T. Francis
		Buckley, by ‘liberalising’ his stance, was and is much more influential…change is a gradual process, and Sam Francis’s hopes can only come to fruition, after the neo-con and buckley and his ilk, have placed a foundation.
		Francis is fortunate that his courage of conviction was not tested by the intoxicants of celebrityitis, tho his Southern-ness would have defeated that demon, and his genuine rightness about American identity he emphasized is his enduring legacy.
		Buckley personified urbane american-ness to aspiring americans, but like all ego fleshed humans was seduced by the perks and pleasures of the literati, so became a shill to pontificitis malefactoris.
