Who are the self-defined Socialists and Communists sitting in America's Congress right now? Why is Socialism not as good as they make it out to be? What is happening in America's government today?

Â
"Congressmen who willfully take actions during wartime that damage morale and undermine the military are saboteurs and should be arrested and exiled or hanged," Abraham Lincoln 1863.
Â
Obama, as a newly seated American President, stated that our servicemen fell in his newly defined category of "domestic terrorists." In two recent budget stand offs Obama -Â using his personal discretion as a president - threatened first to hold pay of our service men and women fighting overseas.
If you've any question about what today's American government is doing, which, like the above example, most of us find wholly bizarre - these are the initiatives of Socialism. If you are in doubt, along with this article view the short clip in "The Very First Radical." This is from a DVD expose' by an American Congressman. He documents clearly the agenda unfolding in America. (The full DVD does even better.)

"The goal of Socialism is Communism"
 Vladimir Lenin, Marxist Communist
Â
Socialism refers to an array of political movements that are a system of ownership of industry. Distribution of wealth is determined by the state or agents of the state or the collective. Currently there is a vast array of ideas referred to as "socialist," from economic justice through taxation and redistribution through hardcore communism's state control of all property and the economy (New World Encyclopedia).
The first question above can be answered, at least in part, by this list of Socialists published in August 2011. Its' source is the "Democratic Socialists Of America," published in October 2009 and known as the most recent.
Socialists and Communists in our government now call themselves Progressives. Find more about these documented members, by state with photos, here.
Â
"... our estimate of the balance of forces and trends in Congress was too general ... progressive Democrats, while undeniably more influential, are not yet dominant. A more fine-grained analysis on our part was necessary." Source: Communist Party USA (CPUSA) web page.
Â
The obvious answer to the second question in this article is the widely accepted fact that Socialism is a necessary stepping stone, from Capitalism, a free market like America's, into Communism, a market where government owns and dictates over it.
The free market is what makes America the greatest nation of liberties that it is, setting America out from among all other nations. America's unique liberties and freedoms are why immigrants risk lives and limbs to come to America from their own homelands.
Socialism and Communism are unhealthy forms of government, because they transition all of its' citizenry's resources into the hands of government rather than leave those resources with the People who create and truly own them. They take the People's freedom.
Socialism and Communism appeal to people who think they have no other rescourse for propelling themselves in life unless they attach to someone else's star. These governments can appeal to those who simply don't want to work as hard or as ingeniously as others do, to realize their own American Dreams. These governments can appeal to entire segments of a population that are rejected as socially acceptable, being promised and wrongly believing they will gain broader social acceptance.
These forms of government naturally appeal to those within the governments, who maintain all of the wealth and power. They often appeal to the destitute and desperate who are anxious for solutions to dire personal dilemmas. In some cases these governments appeal to the sincere of heart, though I've found those very few and far between.
In all cases, any appeal only exists during the transformation period of enticements that are necessary to accomplish a transformation.
Â
"Most on the left aren't Communists, they're just the 'useful idiots' Lenin spoke of being used to promote a Socialist agenda, which is the first and necessary step toward Communism." Source: quoted of Whittaker Chambers, writer, editor and outspoken critic of Communism after renouncing his membership in the CPUSA.
Â
One of the most serious aspects of Socialism and Communism is the historical fact that they lead to so much abusive government control that citizens are brutilized and tortured, many murdered. That becomes the only way those in government can keep their control over the People in order to maintain their own supremacy.
Promises made to a free society in order to entice transformation into Socialism and Communism are never realized by the People. They are no longer a society of workers and earners with each having the opportunity to succeed or fail at their own pace. Under Socialism and Communism everyone is maintained at the same abused level while the few in the echelon of government keep all of the wealth and power for themselves. Â
It should most readily be noted that those in America today who promote Socialism and Communism do their work in subliminal dark shadows. They admit to soliciting their membership through the financially deprived and desperate in society. That is not by happenstance.
Socialists and Communists change the names they use. "Progressives" is a good example of this slight of hand. This name change represents the obviously undesirable traits of Socialism and Communism, which must be overcome in order to promote themselves.
Only that which is truly unworthy on its' own merits must be attained through slight of hand, else why bother with it?

"From 1959 until 1989, the [Communist Party USA] received a substantial subsidy from the Soviet Union [that]Â increased gradually to $3,000,000 in 1987 ... Even more controversial than funding is the alleged involvement of CPUSA members in espionage for the Soviet Union." Source: New World Encyclopedia
Â
It was only a week ago that a misguided Liberal on the news defended Obama against claims of being a Socialist, further finding that claim offensive. Very clearly Socialism is Obama's agenda.
That is why Obama's decisions always go toward weakening American. Obama's decisions will routinely do one of two things: They either destroy America's strongest assets or they shift them to government control.
Obama's decisions not only 'never fix' our People's problems, but they continue to make our conditions worse. They are often obscured by slight of hand while others openly slap American Patriots in the face.
Documented Socialist and Communist Progressives are disguruntled with Obama, because in their eyes he is not moving their American agenda fast enough. They see the time as ripe and they know Americans' push-back is strong.
Â
"Though the [2008] election [of Obama] was a major defeat for the right, it retains a significant mass base ... the Republican Party has a loud and insistent voice ... A comeback — a return to power — isn’t out of the question." Source: Communist Party USA (CPUSA) web page.
Â
The Communist Party USA's use of the words "comeback" and "return to power," in a context of not being "out of the question," clearly indicates they believe American conservatism could easily be squashed by Obama's reign.
Communists are strongly affiliated with America's unions. The Communist League took an active role in last week's Washington State union protests, where they inflicted violence and destruction of private properties.
Obama has had no reservations about making it clear that unions play a key role in his politics and in his personal election campaigns. Obama routinely favors union activities regardless that they do commit demonstrative acts against U.S. citizens and against industries that are of critical importance to our economy.
We The People must think long and hard about our 2012 election votes. If there was ever an election in recent America History that is critical to the future of America - to our lives and to those of our children and grandchildren - 2012 is that election.
If you ever felt that your one, little vote did not matter, 2012 is the election where your one vote is huge. It most certainly does matter. Your 2012 vote is critical to America's survival.
To get himself elected in 2008, Obama used much slight of hand. Below is a list of just some of the incidents of voter fraud that were reported.
There were serious charges lodged against the Obama administration for Voter Fraud during Obama's 2008 "election." Officials within our Justice Department stated one incident as being the "best documented open and shut case" they'd ever seen in their history of trying cases. By then under control of Obama's Attorney General Eric Holder, Obama's Justice Department refused to prosecute and they offered very little explanation for the decision.
It behooves Americans to be on alert in 2012, if we want anything that's close to a real presidential election. Contact your Voting Headquarters in advance and ask them what protections against voter fraud are being implemented in 2012. Put them on notice we expect and will be watching for fair and honest elections.
This is a list of just a few of Obama's voter fraud incidents, as reported:
Obama campaign signs and literature were illegally strewn throughout the inside of polling places. No other candidate's material was there. Democrat campaign workers left the illegal materials on open display.
The threatening presence of Black Panther thugs stood outside of polling places, yelling intimidations to approaching voters while slapping hefty batons in their hands.Voters interviewed outside of well-known Democrat precincts openly stated they voted more than once, some seemingly ignorant of the fact that doing so is illegal.
Obama's home organization, ACORN, bought votes of the homeless by busing them to polling places with bus drivers coaching them whose vote to cast. It is likely they were treated with their favorite amenitites, though I don't know that was reported.
ACORN registered the homeless to vote multiple times for each individual, some as many as 10 to 20 times each. Some registrants used the same name, sometimes so blatantly they registered under cartoon characters such as "Mickey Mouse."
There were Absentee Ballot frauds of various natures, such as using addresses that didn't exist; and people who did know better registered and voted in two or more states because they owned property in each state.
Obama refused to ensure that Absentee Ballots were mailed to our military personnel fighting overseas in time for them to cast votes by return mail. Many military, known to be a conservative voting block, were denied the opportunity to vote at all. This was a most dispicable manner of voter theft.Some states' school children were instructed to practice completing "sample ballots" printed only with Democrat candidate names. Having practiced, students of voting age were transported to polling places to cast real votes.
If you see what could (or does) amount to voter fraud and election theft, question it and report it.
Make your 2012 vote count. Vote and give a friend a ride. Exercise your free Ameirca. Preserve her. Stand beside her. Don't let the Socialists and Communists have our country, our children, our hopes and dreams and hearts and minds.

Obama is doing such foolish things and from all appearances is generating such a tremendous amount of negative push-back, it is hard to believe that he continues to do such foolish things. It's just as hard to beleive that those who're behind the scenes aren't taking some reasonable measure to control his damages (everyone recognizes Obama is little more than a well spoken & dressed puppet for Socialism/Communism).
So I'm thinking one of two things is happening: Either Obamamaniacs have one hell of a plan to overcome this stuff or to get him re-elected in spite of it; or they've already told him he's cut lose and we'll see a last minute Dem candidate who has a lot more chance; and Obama is on his way out perhaps encouraged to be so outlandishly lame to make the next real candidate look even more desirable?
Something very strange is going on right now. Now is not the time to fall back on our laurels. I feel certain of it. Though, for sure, it fun watching him burn and crash :).
"... second thoughts about the warm bath and have decided it's time to wake up and jump out!!"
Thank God voters are becoming aware and using their voting powers! That is one of my prayers answered, for sure! As I wrote this article I reflected when I saw your similar article sometime back and how inspiring it was. I thank you again for that, Sandy.
As you state, thank God folks are becoming less wrapped up with themselves and becoming more aware of what's happening around them in leadership, which will in due time, impact them personally and tragically more than they could ever imagine!
In Ohio, you only need to have a copy of a utility bill to vote. You can steal one and pretend to be someone else, since there is no picture ID required. Or someone can print up fake bills with your name and whatever address you choose on them. In at least one case, it was shown that over 30 adults supposedly lived at one home. (They didn't really, but faking utility bills allowed people to vote in multiple locations.) College kids admitted to having voted 4 times each (about 10 of them) and they really did act like they had no idea it was illegal. You have to wonder how many there were.
I didn't realize a utility bill was ALL you needed to vote. I thought it required at least 3 forms of that sort of ID, since that's what it takes in many states to so much as turn on a utility. Sometimes I think Ohio is a little naive when it comes to this stuff, which may explain his last visit, you know, making all of those connections again. Would be interesting to know his internerary as it actually played out.
Oh man, it is very clear this sort of manipulation is what stole Obama his first election. I am praying for 2012. If we can manage a forthright one, Obama doesn't have a chance. As blatantly failing and audacious about it as Obama is right now, I sense he believes (for whatever reason?) that he has the 2012 election tied in a bow with his name on it. Either that or these are his last hoorahs with the Dems throwing out a more desirable candidate at the last minute, making that candidate appear all the more desirable ... ?
Thanks for the info Marilyn. I'm going to call my own board of elections and see if they're protecting against these shenanigans.
At our last local TEA party meeting we learned that they're training 500 Republicans and Democrats to help man the polls. I guess in the past in precincts where they couldn't find enough Republicans or Independents, they'd just put more Democrats in. We're all to blame if we were remiss in observing and managing the polls.
Oh great, like more Dems is all we need, I wondered how they got away with some of that in-polling-place stuff. That was probably the same situation, a shortage of conservatives. I hope 2012 has a much better response and I suspect it will be.
BTW, I always right-click/copy my comment in case I do lose it. So frustating to lose something, especially if its' one you've put thought and time into and with all my typos, they're all that way - HA.
If this "terrifies" you the Left will tout it as fear-mongering. That's the best they have (so far). Read comments under "The Very First Radical" article (linked above) and you'll understand. Suffice it to say, this article was not intended to "terrify" anyone, but those who know communism are wise to be alarmed by the facts that are out there.
This is a very real prospect. More and more people are talking about it, it's become so clear. Most young people don't have the background in Communism that I (and maybe you) do, thus many find Communism the "cool" thing it's now presented to be. It is a dangerous teeter we're tottering on, in my opinion.
Make our votes count in 2012. Thanks Jan.
Knowing Him makes us able to enjoy the excitement of it even though our blood is running cold :)
Or ... since I haven't gone to sleep yet and it is almost 7AM, I might have day dreamed it :)
The article is dated a year and a half ago and is published by CNN, not itself unbiased. This article was about 2-weeks after passage of the most contentious piece of legislation since Boston Patriots had their Tea Party - healthcare. People were very hot about Socialized Medicine. It makes sense a lot of materials were put out to 'calm the masses'.
This reporter lives in England where Socialized Medicine is the norm and the country after which America mirrors Socialism tendancies. The reporter was conscious-free to write whatever asked (for money). This quote about says it all: "[Blake was] Head-hunted by The Sun, the UK's leading tabloid, Blake launched 'Bizarre', a page that took celebrity gossip to a new level."
For an accumulation of obvious and not so obvioius reasons I don't trust this reporter defining "Socialism" for Americans anymore than I'd trust his England tabloid as a legitimate source.
Socialists routinely malign American's knowledge of "what" Socialism is. That's a favorite diversion of the Left. I think Maxine Waters ought to know best: Maxine Water Slips & Admits To Socialism. And the Shell Oil Guy she's badgering was right, wasn't he?
I'm open to real material. It is very clear to Americans (and Communists) that Socialism is the agenda of this administration.
To repeat the infamous Marxist Communist, Lenin, "Socialism's goal is Communism." It doesn't get any clearer than that.
Since I am in favor of and directly involved with the Tea Party, I suggest I know quite a bit more about it than someone reading Soros funded propaganda. If you want to know what the Tea Party really is, let me know and I'll tell you - ask away. But not on an article that is wholly unrelated to the Tea Party.
"The flag waving and nationalism is an example of how the Nazis became very powerful in Germany."
Hitler played class warfare just like the Left does. Does that equate to you being a Hitler? Broad derogatory swipes in comparing one segment of a society to another's society does not a fascist make. Common sense should tell you that. I could use an example but I won't.
"These hypocrites cover their big governmentism with free market talk. The Tea Party is simply a convenient marketing campaign."
No name-calling.
Since the Tea Party has never functioned outside of this administration, you've no knowledge whatsoever of how they function outside of this administration. Yours is the most randomly pulled inflammatory nonsense I've ever seen posed. If nothing else, stick to what you do know not to what you want to think you know.
"The Tea Party is not a libertarian movement."
No one said it was a Libertarian movement ... well, not anyone who really knows what they're talking about. That couldn't be any farther from the truth. The Tea Party is comprised of several parties, including but not limited to Democrats and Independents. You are making a fool of yourself with this stuff, Lee P.
You've very clearly no idea what the Tea Party is. If you want the sincerity of a reply here you have to keep things somewhere in the realm of real.
"If the economy continues downhill ... ."
Trust me, as long as Obama or his kind are in office, you can bank on this economy tanking. That is Obama's goal, in case you haven't noticed by every decision he's made beginning with TARP through his last "Jobs" speech. Thus why unemployment has continued to worsen the entire time he's been in office.
"As soon as the GOP recaptures the gun ... I expect ... .."
What is this You "expect?" You're trying to win an argument based on your personal expectations? Because you do or don't 'expect' something determines its' validity? Give me a break.
Look, I'm willing to intelligently discuss anything, but I will not be put in the position of wasting time with pure nonsense.
You're way off topic, Lee P. This article didn't so much as mention the Tea Party. It has absolutely nothing to do with the Tea Party. It appears you are cruising for a fight and that does not fly here, either. I only answered because it was a choice between that or deleting your comment and I'm trying to be reasonable.
All in good faith, stay on topic or refrain from commenting. That's all I know to tell you. If you're going to comment on-topic, please at least use facts to document your personal allegations or don't make personal allegations. It's a waste of everyone's time.
Some would have us believe that the Tea Party is anti-government. They’re just anti-this-government. Whenever the Republicans are out of power, these folks start in on a free market spiel. Government this, government that. What we see however is that, once they are in power again, the GOP grows government. See, for example, Nixon, Reagan and the Bushes. These hypocrites cover their big governmentism with free market talk. The Tea Party is simply a convenient marketing campaign.
The Tea Party is not a libertarian movement. It co-opted a libertarian message, but in reality it is a rightist movement. It’s pro-war, intolerant, ultra-patriotic, pro-torture, into corporate apologism and ready to scapegoat paperless immigrants. As soon as the GOP recaptures the gun that is government, I expect these people will go back to sleep.
Libertarianism, on the other hand, is a consistently peaceful position. The evils of corporatism are borne of the state. We don’t oppose government only when people we dislike are in power. We seek to solve the problems liberals worry about with more peaceful means than state mandates. We’re not like those Tea Party folks.
If the economy continues downhill, people will seek a strong man, someone with a plan who will get us out this mess. This person will right the wrongs and restore America to its former greatness – or so he’ll promise. The Tea Party is well positioned to ride this sentiment into power in 2012. With their neo-con lust for global domination, their blindness to the unfettered power of state-backed corporations and their failure to accept the impracticality of the state, they are more likely than any other movement to bring fascism to these shores.
Tea Party does not equal libertarian.
I'm assuming this is basically the same comment as I answered above before you deleted that one? If I missed something relevant, please let me know. See reply above.
Whatever all of them were, it was a stark revelation to see just how effectively they've succeeded over the last 50-year ... like bookwork.
The Origin Of The Peace Symbol
If I'm discerning correctly, Niveveh got a 150 year reprieve after they heeded Jonah's warnings from God and repented, but then went back to their old ways and God destroyed them.... The warnings today are massive and many.... Are folks listening? Are they taking God seriously? We and they will know that soon, I believe......
Now the thing i dont understand is this.
The bible also states that when the devil does re appear it will be basically where he is least expected.
So to me that wouldnt be either the dems or the repubs because each side has been accused off and on of being the antichrist.
So shouldnt people who do follow the bible realize that and not be distracted by the obvious and be looking to the unobvious?
My answer, right or wrong, would be yes, we should not be looking in the obvious place for the obvious. I don't think anyone was saying the Democrats are some evil party anymore than the Repubs, if that's what you meant? Men are men. Though personally I do find Obama a particularly evil character but that's just my opinion based on the fruits he bears.
Ok that was kind of a start but could you elaborate more?
I'm not sure in what direction you want me to elaborate? Why do I feel a set-up coming on? Ha!
I asked a couple people the same question when they said it was Bush and no one came up with a good answer then either so dont feel pressure to perform so to speak.
I tend to agree with you and as far as I know (?) we can't make a formal prediction. I think it behooves us to watch for the signs. To try to recognize him. Maybe that's a very personal thing, where so many are bound to agree on one or another. I only know to rely on my own judgments. The Bible does say we will know evil men by their fruits. I find that particularly important to observe in terms of discerning good from evil men.
I don't know that we can know who the antichrist is but maybe someone else has beter scriptural answers? Sandy or IMKIDNO would probably be better at answering that.
My point was if there is an antichrist and we keep looking in the obvious places..like leaders of countries...we will possibly not see the real one because we are looking in a different direction.
It is kind of a philosopical question more than anything.
And yes people said it about Bush and probably Reagan and Nixon. Not sure about Carter.
I always thought it would be like Mother Theresa..not that I think she was at all but it would be the person that was least expected and who the world loved.
The Bible lists many ways in which to recognize the anti-christ when he comes. This article will highlight some of those.
He will be different than other kings. [Daniel 7:24]
He will speak boastfully. [Daniel 7:8; Rev 13:5]
He will change laws. [Dan 7:25]
He will attempt to change the calendar. [Daniel 7:25]
He will confirm a covenant with the Jews. [Daniel 9:27]
He will show no respect for the religion of his ancestors. [Daniel 11:37]
His whole focus will be on the military and conquering lands. [Daniel 11:39-44]
He will be worshiped by many. [Rev. 13:8]
He will appear to have survived an otherwise fatal injury. [Rev. 13:3; 17:8]
His name will, in some way, relate to the number 666. [Rev 13:17-18]

I figure I'm doing good to walk the line one day at a time :). Not in a flippant or irresponsible way, but "Don't worry for the morrow, today has enough worries of its' own."
If you say Reagan was the antichrist you can pretty much assure that he isnt because it would be too obvious...know what I mean? And that would apply to Bush, Carter, Clinton. Obama any of them.
The one that throws me for a loop is Hitler. What is your take on that?
The Beast gathers the kings of the earth and their armies to prepare for war against He who sits on a white horse. The battle results in the Beast being seized, along with the False Prophet, where they are thrown alive into the lake of fire. Those against the "KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS" are killed and left for the birds. (Revelation 19:11-21) In the lake of fire, the Beast and the False Prophet are tormented day and night forever and ever. The Dragon joins them a little more than a millennium later after the great war.
Has anyone seen a seven headed leopard?
The Bible prophesies that there will be a certain pattern of world politics that will characterize the end time geopolitical map.
The focus will be the re-established state of Israel (Zechariah 12:2-3). It will be besieged by a menacing nation from the "remote parts of the north," the nation of "Rosh" — or modern day Russia (Ezekiel 38:2,6). There will also be a threatening nation to the East that will be capable of sending an army of 200 million — namely, China (Revelation 9:13-16 and Revelation 16:12-13). A third source of danger to Israel will be the Arab nations that immediately surround it. They will covet the land and will try to take it from the Jews (Ezekiel 35:10 and 36:2).
Another key player on the world political scene in the end times will be a coalition of European nations that will form a confederation centered in the area of the old Roman empire (Daniel 2:41-44, Daniel 7:7,23-24, and Revelation 17:12-13). This confederation will serve as the political base for the rise of the Anti-Christ and the creation of his worldwide kingdom (Daniel 7:8).

Remember where the Patriot Act came from in the first place. The massive increase in government, the foreign interventionist policies, the "bail out" of the big financial corporations mentality, and the "Unitary Executive" approach which now renders the President a virtual dictator.
The "problem" is much bigger that one would wish . . Much bigger, I fear.
Please consider voting for candidates with a PROVEN track record of adhering to the Constitution above all else, regardless of Party affiliation. Talk is cheap, and many politicians are professional talkers. Labels are not going to be trustworthy indicators of "safe" votes . . unfortunately.
That is indeed good advice! There's much to be said for seeking guidance in our vote casting, too. Much to be said for that.
The "deceivers" own the mass media, for goodness sake . . and have for many years There's Zero chance to my mind, that the political hawks in one of the least religious nations on earth, are not a part of the deception. Zero.
Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
The armchair totalitarians have been planning these moves for a long time. The only thing keeping them from shutting us all down may be that thay believe thay have it sewn up in any case. Let's hope they are wrong.

It explains how most of the world is taken in by the anti Christ and how he had so much backing, he could do know wrong... When he did that murder, they all saw it that were there but none of them saw it... If you know what I mean.. A case of denial..
I am sad what is going on as well...
I just learned fairly recently that God actually says in Rev that He will speak in figurative speech. Or something like that :) So that opened my mind that the beasts and flying things may be his way of explaining helicopters, submarines & things never dreamed of by the people in that time. But for sure, we'll understand when it happens.
But who knows? I loved the books and think anyone should read them.
One other thing, a few months ago I was reading about the 7 hills again. I've always been a touch uncomfortable thinking the tribulation gov't would be headquartered in Europe although the same gov't will be over Israel and Europe and the earth. Then it hit me, their are 7 continents. Wow. 7 huge hills on the earth. If we could see the earth without water we would see the massiveness of the hills. I need to go back to Daniel and Ezekiel and see if I can see anything back there that would give light to that possibility.
3 Timothy 3
Couldn't that refer to any of the desperate times we have had on earth. Couldn't it refer to the papacy? Couldn't it refer to Hitler's time? The prophesy is just that, a prophesy!
That was wonderful, thank you. I'm putting the one on Youtube on my desk top so I can play it whenever I want :)
It's part of the musical, Les Misérables. I watch it every chance I get. In fact I went to the play when it came to town. Some of it is funny to give emotional breaks, but the main is seeing the sadness of lost lives of the young people and the way things were. It is amazing. You may be able to pull it up on the net. The play itself is shown on Public TV. Keep an eye on that.
Know one knows the exact time, this will happen but things have to line up before it happens...
There's no communist threat any more than there's a capitalist threat or a neo-Platonist threat. The only threat to freedom is people who want to run everything for their own benefit. It's never a matter of ideology no matter how loudly real or wannabe dictators scream about an ideology.
From the body of this article....
" One of the most serious aspects of Socialism and Communism is the historical fact that they lead to so much abusive government control that citizens are brutilized and tortured, many murdered. That becomes the only way those in government can keep their control over the People in order to maintain their own supremacy. "
So yes, Communism is a threat to our freedoms granted under The Constitution Of The United States Of America.
Patriotism and nationalism are two different things. I'm a blue blooded US Patriot but not a nationalist. There are other walks of life other than ours.
We should be keeping our noses out of other people's business at home and abroad, just as we'd object and resent when they stick their noses into ours. True American nationalism is and ought to be dominated by a reverence for the Constitution and a commitment to adhere to it as much as possible.
Thus is a virtuous nationalism.
