The first time I realised I was patriotic was after September 11th.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I felt that a number of people might have questioned my loyalty, but I continue to be a patriotic American.
I think I'm one of the most patriotic people that I've ever encountered in America. I consider myself a bedrock patriot. I participate very actively in local politics, because my voice might be worthwhile. I participate in a meaningful way - not by donations; I work at it.
I am certain that I speak on behalf of my entire nation when I say: September 11th we are all Americans - in grief, as in defiance.
I distinguish, between nationalism and patriotism.
Patriotism is your conviction that this country is superior to all others because you were born in it.
I think there are few things more patriotic than taking the time to make your country a better place.
I'm a patriot in the truest sense of the word.
There's intense national feeling in America that could be called patriotism.
I have to admit, I'm not patriotic. It has partly to do with principle, but it is also a phobia/neurosis.
I've always considered myself to be fiercely patriotic. I love Britain - its history and the down-to-earth attitude people have.
