CAN PATRIOTISM SURVIVE?

The simple answer is NO. Patriotism is like a beautiful flower, it must be nurtured, and cultivated to survive. The left leaning forces in our educational institutions are letting it slowly die. The public schools have always played an important role in keeping patriotism alive and well. As a child in elementary school, we were shown films about the greatness of America. We were taught about the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, and how important they were to our freedoms. We were taught about the valor of our Military and how important it was in keeping us free. I remember being one, of a two person team to raise our flag every morning at our school, even as a fifth grade student, it was a very big deal. We were also taught about the greatness of our Founding Fathers, and their courage in forging a new nation. A nation that has survived for 241 years thanks to their incredible foresight and faith in God. My childhood was steeped in love for the United States of America. When I see Old Glory waving in the breeze, I have a feeling of pride, a feeling of confidence, and a deep respect for those men and women that have defended our flag and all that it means.

Sadly, our schools no longer feel it's important, to teach our children the importance of being a patriot. They are missing something extremely important. The citizens of a nation must have that feeling of belonging to something much larger than themselves, a feeling of loyalty, a feeling of pride. They must have a willingness to defend their way of life, and their homeland. History will teach us, that as long as people have been on this planet, there will always be those that are willing to wage war on others, to expand their domain, and expand their ideology. That is after all the reason for having flags in the first place, to rally the warriors and mark your territory. A nation of people that lack that inner feeling of love for their country are easily conquered, because they lack the desire to fight for what the believe. They are nothing more than lambs, waiting to be slaughtered.

I recently spoke with my brother-in-law that is a resident of London England. He was born and raised there. I was curious about the level of patriotism among the British citizens. He told me, it is no where near the level found in the USA. I was immediately surprised. However, after thinking about it, and  considering the government's socialistic behavior, it made perfect sense. Britain has always been known for their patriotism and bravery, willing to stand against almost insurmountable odds, and come out victors. The socialists have all but ended that, allowing a never ending parade of immigrants into their country from the middle east. Hundreds of thousands of people that don't have even the slightest desire to be traditional Englishmen. They could give a rip less about the hardships English citizens faced in WWll, and the huge sacrifices they made to remain a sovereign nation. They are there to conquer, period.

Make no mistake about it. There are forces in this world that would love to see the USA meet it's demise. The only thing standing between them and us, is the power of our Military and the Patriot Soldiers willing to die, to make sure that doesn't happen. We cannot allow the government to let our country be overrun with immigrants that don't share the love of our country, and our dream of total freedom. Keep the politicians in check. Do not let them give our country away, because of some whacko ideology of a political party. The survival of our nation, and our freedom is more important than all of the political parties that ever existed. AMERICA FIRST.
