I'm patriotic... about Indiana Grin  And East Timor :S I think I'm more patriotic about East Timor than America, oops Tongue

Overall, I'm neutral.  It can get kind of annoying sometimes, especially when people accuse you of being unpatriotic because you are liberal Tongue

Which according to your avatar color is also your political faction.

For examples of very nationalistic governments look at Saddam's Iraq, the Lebanese Falange, and oh, Germany in the late 30s/early 40s...
I'm not arguing that what Germany did was right.  However, you have to admit that nationalism was very effective for one country to steamroll across Europle.  The people were dedicated to the sucess of their country.
If being nationalistic would enable the USA to take over a whole continent, I'd be as anti-nationalistic as I could.
Whole continent. The USA could take North America with our standing armies for crying out loud. With a fierce nationalism movement and a healthy investment in nukes the US could take the whole world -being allied with Russia and maybe India, of course.

...why would we want this?
