He co-founded ''The American Conservative'' magazine and launched a foundation named The American Cause. He has been published in ''Human Events, National Review, The Nation,'' and ''Rolling Stone''.

Buchanan is a regular on ''The McLaughlin Group'' and now appears on Fox News. ==Early life and education== Buchanan was born in Washington, D.C., a son of William Baldwin Buchanan (Virginia, August 13, 1905 – Washington, D.C., January 1988), a partner in an accounting firm, and his wife Catherine Elizabeth (Crum) Buchanan (Charleroi, Washington County, Pennsylvania, December 23, 1911 – Oakton, Fairfax County, Virginia, September 18, 1995), a nurse and a homemaker.

His father was of English, Irish, and Scottish descent, and his mother was of German ancestry.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Index to Politicians:Buchanan )〕 He had a great-grandfather who fought in the American Civil War in the Confederate Army, which is why he is a member of the Sons of Confederate Veterans and admires Robert E. Lee. Of his southern roots, Buchanan has written: Buchanan was born into a Catholic family and attended Catholic schools, including the Jesuit-run Gonzaga College High School. As a student at Georgetown University, he was in ROTC but did not complete the program. He received his draft notice after he graduated in 1960. However, the District of Columbia draft board exempted Buchanan from military service because of reactive arthritis, classifying him as 4-F. He received a master's degree in journalism from Columbia University in 1962, writing his thesis on the expanding trade between Canada and Cuba. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pat Buchanan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
