Carter and Ford were alive when Reagan was running for his second term in addition to Nixon . So you are not as smart as you think you are . Poor You !

Is that a question and answer, or just asking for an opinion of what one believes is the definition of "patriotism?"

No, I do not believe that patriotism is defined as "taking orders." That is called obedience. My definition of patriotism is actions that reflect that you love/are proud of/are loyal to your country.

What presidents were alive when Reagan was running?

Richard M. Nixon died April 22, 1994, 9:08PM

Are you saying an impeached President did not support Ragen?

Therefore Trump is just like Reagan.

Is this wrong?


I asked a question. Is this wrong? I didn't know the answer. It's still OK to ask questions, isn't it.

Bush W appears to be a very/very patriotic person. Even if they would not allow Trump to know that they are voting for him, they will still vote party line.
Voting the party line is patriotic. Is that correct?
I don't think it is. That sounds like obedience, my party-right or wrong.

Now candidates brag--hey I was against the war from the very beginning except for Clinton. She voted the party line.

You seem confused. Voting party line when that party is right, IS patriotism....:)

Patriotism is synonymous with loyalty to one's country. Conservatism reflects a love of the American Way. Socialism is not American. Never has been. It has always been a trait of European controlling system. Not all Republicans are conservative but you will be hard pressed to find Democrats that are still conservative. Most are liberal, a synonym for socialist.

So yes, voting party line in this case IS patriotic because you are putting Country first, not yourself.

When you put your country before your party, that is patriotic. We agree.

Is Trump a Conservative?

continuing my thoughts--This is why the Party of Slavery has shifted 180 degrees. Voters put their Country before their party.

I guess I can answer all three of your consecutive posts with this one post.

The party of slavery has shifted 180 degrees and voters put their country before their party? Not hardly. The party of slavery is STILL the party of slavery and is STILL keeping the black man down by forcing them to stay on welfare. They do not put country first, because they will bankrupt the country in order to keep everyone slaves of gov handouts. The left still votes based on avarice, not country.

Country before party. Yes, take it out of context as is normal for the left. Either that, or you have a reading comprehension problem. So, we do NOT agree.

Is Trump a conservative? No, he is a politician. There are no conservatives anymore. But, he is more to the right/center than the liberal socialists running for office on the Democrat leftie side.

I hope you are satisfied with replies to your three consecutive posts.

Put it in any context you want. When voting, would you put your Country before your Party?
Isn't the order Country, Party, Individual?

Conservatism reflects a love of the American Way.

Do you think everyone feels this way?

[QUOTE=Guest;1226317]You still seem to have a problem comprehending that statement. Either that or you wish to twist the statement to conform with your agenda. Sorry, not playing that game. A liberal will never understand the concept of patriotism, loyalty or love of country. Liberals always choose themselves over the good of the country, which is why this administration has doubled the national debt.

No. Did I indicate otherwise?

Patriotism is a misplaced love in these times. Your government is nothing but stealing violent criminals. Your country is being overrun by minorities and you'll soon be the minority yourself. There's not much to love outside the villages. It's becoming pretty seedy out there.

The party is made up of lying thieves. There's nothing honorable about any of them. Yet you insist on voting for the less of the two evils time after time. There should be a test before you vote. Awww...it doesn't matter anyway, one of their guys always wins. The electoral College guarantees that.

Forget about the two parties, they are corrupt beyond repair.

[QUOTE=Guest;1226317]It should be individual then country. The "party" is there to steal from you, that's it's ONLY job. Take control and steal taxes for their projects...for their friends...who build the projects.
