==Why are some globalists in the template?==
 
I noticed [[Lyndon Johnson]], [[Franklin Roosevelt]], and [[Hillary Clinton]] are in the template, along with some other people who were not there before. The three figures above were/are globalists who supported wasteful foreign wars that hurt American sovereignty and are all liberal Democrats. Nationalism is a conservative trait and typically associated with Republicans. The newer people added to this template should be removed, and the template should go back to what it was before these additions. -[[User:Mr. Nationalist|Mr. Nationalist]] ([[User talk:Mr. Nationalist|talk]]) 18:21, September 5, 2021 (EDT)

:It's an interesting debate. The term "globalist" and "globalism" did not come into existence to the 1960s and was probably invented by Marshall McLuhan. Its meaning has changed since then. Was FDR an "internationalist"? Yes. Now explain what FDR meant by "Rendezvous with Destiny", and how Democrat voters received its meaning at the time. As to LBJ, his whole purpose in launching the Vietnam war was to achieve "national unity" between black and white in a desegregated armed services. it was part of his domestic civil rights program more than a continuation of Truman-era Cold War [[containment]].  Hillary?  I've personally heard enough of her speeches to her constituents, referring to the damage the Republicans are doing to "our country", witness for example the "Contract on America" to say she is a dyed-in-the-wool fascist Nazi and Nationalist with a capital "N".

: There is always a problem when you try to backdate a contemporary political lexicon to previous generations and eras, and ignore the language and idioms use at a previous time. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|Free Kyle!]]</sup> 19:01, September 5, 2021 (EDT)
