Whitmoreism

Whitmoreism (the JFK files serve as placeholders) is the official ideology of President Thomas Whitmore (1993-2001). from the Independence Day Universe. It is a progressive, patriotic and internationalist ideology, it also having very negative sentiments towards the harvester aliens, especially after Whitmore learns of their true intentions.

While initially Whitmoreism (most likely) was a Democratist ideology who advocated for usual progressive policies, just like the party at the time, after the war of 1996 against the harvester aliens, Whitmoreism would incorporate tendencies of American Patriotism (if not already existent thanks to his participation in the Gulf War) and also Galacticism and Panhumanism.

Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution, but from annihilation. We're fighting for our right to live, to exist, and should we win the day, the 4th of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice, 'We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on, we're going to survive. Today we celebrate our Independence day!"

 * [[File:Envi.png]] - I tried to get environmental reforms through congress, but the GOP blocked it. Eventually however, after the war of 1996, the world began the wide scale adoption of cold fusion through reverse-engineered technology, ending the problem of fossil fuel pollution.
