Minneapolis
I’m in town for the various Ron Paul events leading up to the great Rally for the Republic on Tuesday. I’ll be blogging a bit (most @TAC) about the public events. And I have some Willmoore Kendall stuff I might post here later tonight. For now, though, just a quick, content-free post while I check my e-mail and grab a sandwich…

I’m eager to hear your thoughts on Kendall.. I think we’re due for a Willmoore Kendall revival!

A Kendall revival indeed: I’m going to hold off on posting anything much to the blog, but the good news is I’ve been asked to contribute 9,000 words on Kendall to a project that should see fruition next year. I’m also looking to assign an article relating to Kendall for The American Conservative tomorrow. (I hear Paul Gottfried has also recently written on him.)

Regarding less writing on him vs. more: will more kindle a bonfire of the vanity of ignoring him, a revival from which Kendall more will be seen as a man ahead of his time?
Set him alongside a Kentucky agrarian, and watch their respective strong suits, as we see Wendell kill more of, and bury, the excesses of industrialism in our culture, whereas Kendall will more likely erode the corrosions in politics of the centralized state.
I hope to explore such Wen-Ken fusionism once I get wi-fi.
