Patriotism or national pride is the feeling of love, devotion and sense of attachment to a homeland and alliance with other citizens who share the same sentiment. This attachment can be a combination of many different feelings relating to one's own homeland, including ethnic, cultural, political or historical aspects. It encompasses a set of concepts closely related to, but mutually exclusive from those of nationalism.

The more usual definition of Patriotism. just watered down nationalism really.

Howard Zinn was awesome. Have his books and saw him speak many times in Boston.

Absolutely right!! It is loyalty of the principles of democracy, to our people, and to the ideas inherent in our constitution.
