Republicans remain the party of the old American stock—those whose ancestors settled the continent, framed its charters, and defended its borders through successive generations of settlement and war. Their electoral strength concentrates where the founding population still predominates: the rural counties, the small cities, the regions whose families can name the wars their grandfathers fought and the constitutions their great-grandfathers ratified. Democrats, by contrast, draw their decisive margins from populations that arrived later, often within living memory, and whose primary political attachment is to the party that facilitated their entry or to the ethnic blocs that organized around it. This is not a temporary accident of messaging or media. It is the ordinary pattern of multi-ethnic politics everywhere it has been observed: the older population coalesces around continuity; newer arrivals coalesce around redistribution, recognition, and the expansion of the franchise that admitted them.

The difficulty is not that these later arrivals have been poorly instructed in Jeffersonian republicanism. Instruction assumes a prior capacity and a prior inheritance of habits that can receive the instruction. Jeffersonian liberty presupposed a people already practiced in self-restraint, local self-government, and the subordination of tribal claims to a common law. Where those habits are absent from the family and the village for centuries, the constitutional text functions as an invitation to extract rather than a restraint upon power. One does not remake a political culture by distributing copies of the Federalist Papers. The relevant distinctions are older and more stubborn than any civics curriculum can erase, and the voting records of the last half-century simply register them.

A nation is not a hotel or a marketplace of rights; it is a people with a continuous memory and a shared capacity for self-rule. When that people is reduced to a minority within its own borders, the governing apparatus it built is captured by those who neither built it nor inherit its restraints. The result is already visible in the transformation of once-functional cities into patronage machines, in the subordination of equal protection to group outcomes, and in the steady erosion of speech, association, and property rights that once required no elaborate justification. The only orderly means of reversing the capture is the large-scale removal of those whose presence converts the American polity into something else. Anything short of that scale leaves the demographic arithmetic untouched and the institutional capture irreversible.
