Ep. 485: Equality is Like Kudzu

The debate between yours truly and Michael Anton at American Greatness centers on one important point: is the American tradition based on the proposition that "all men are created equal"? I say no, he insists yes. If he is correct, then is the American tradition conservative and in what way? Or more importantly, were Southerners the outlier in the American experience or the bedrock of the American conservative tradition? As Paul Gottfried points out in a rejoinder to the debate, equality is like kudzu. Once you plant it, you can't control it. I discuss Anton, Gottfried, and the proposition nation in this episode of The Brion McClanahan Show.
