Senior fellow Charles Kenny was mentioned in a Foreign Policy article on America's decline.

Rather than a particular data-point, today's Decline Watch looks at some recent commentary from across the declinist spectrum.
First up, Pat Buchanan's new book Suicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive to 2025? It's important to note that Buchanan answers his own question by limiting the concept of "America" to a country dominated by Christian white people. Talking Points Memo has some of the most outrageous quotes here. For example:
The white population will begin to shrink and, should present birth rates persist, slowly disappear. Hispanics already comprise 42 percent of New Mexico’s population, 37 percent of California’s, 38 percent of Texas’s, and over half the population of Arizona under the age of twenty. ……. Mexico is moving north. Ethnically, linguistically, and culturally, the verdict of 1848 is being overturned. Will this Mexican nation within a nation advance the goals of the Constitution—to “insure domestic tranquility” and “make us a more perfect union”? Or has our passivity in the face of this invasion imperiled our union?
