- Ligne n°154 :
- Ligne n°155 : America's 237th birthday arrives with the country deeply divided.
- Ligne n°156 : Whether over politics, policies or lifestyles, Americans seem to be
- Ligne n°157 : gravitating into distinct and irreconcilable camps. In Washington,
- Ligne n°158 : partisanship in the halls of Congress has grown to levels not seen
- Ligne n°159 : since the decades following the Civil War. Public confidence in
- Ligne n°160 : national institutions such as the government, the news media, big
- Ligne n°161 : business and big labor is at a historic low. Common ground is
- Ligne n°162 : vanishing. Civility is in short supply. The country is hanging
- Ligne n°163 : together, but who knows for how long.
- Ligne n°164 :
- Ligne n°165 : However, divisiveness is not destiny. A core set of American values
- Ligne n°166 : remains, rooted in freedom and the experience of generations of
- Ligne n°167 : self-government. They encompass the American dream of a better life for
- Ligne n°168 : our children. They are an expression of life and liberty of a free
- Ligne n°169 : people. July 4 should be a time to join together and focus on the
- Ligne n°170 : commonalities of life in this country. It is a day to celebrate freedom
- Ligne n°171 : and reflect on the future of the American experiment.
- Ligne n°172 :
- Ligne n°173 : 90% 'very patriotic'
- Ligne n°174 :
- Ligne n°175 : Independence Day is our patriotic holiday. For some, the word patriot
- Ligne n°176 : has become a rallying cry. For others it is a dirty word, implying
- Ligne n°177 : thoughtless nationalism. But most Americans believe it accurately
- Ligne n°178 : describes them. The American values poll taken annually by the Pew
- Ligne n°179 : Research Center for People and the Press shows that the percentage of
- Ligne n°180 : people who agree with the statement "I am very patriotic" has been
- Ligne n°181 : right around 90% in every poll since the center began asking the
- Ligne n°182 : question in 1987.
- Ligne n°183 :
- Ligne n°184 : Granted, patriot can mean different things to different people, but
- Ligne n°185 : that has always been the case. The word is far older than the United
- Ligne n°186 : States. Today, we associate the word patriot with the American
- Ligne n°187 : revolutionaries, but various parties in the British Parliament also
- Ligne n°188 : referred to themselves as patriots. And King George III had long been
- Ligne n°189 : known as "the patriot king," a title he inherited from his father.
- Ligne n°190 : Thus, every side in the American Revolution claimed to be patriotic,
- Ligne n°191 : except the Hessian mercenaries hired by Britain.
- Ligne n°192 :
- Ligne n°193 : In finding a way to unite around the patriotic feeling that is common
- Ligne n°194 : across that 90% of Americans, it is tempting to look to political
- Ligne n°195 : leaders, but they might be more the cause of division than its cure.
- Ligne n°196 : Campaign pledges of post-partisanship and bridge-building have
- Ligne n°197 : foundered on the hard rocks of power politics. This is a bipartisan
- Ligne n°198 : problem and has grown more severe in the 21st century. According to
- Ligne n°199 : Gallup surveys, nine of the 10 most polarized years took place during
- Ligne n°200 : the presidencies of George W. Bush and Barack Obama, even as both men
- Ligne n°201 : ran on the idea of uniting a divided nation.
- Ligne n°202 :
- Ligne n°203 : Reaching out, not preaching
- Ligne n°204 :
- Ligne n°205 : But reaching out to the other side, not just preaching, entails risk.
- Ligne n°206 : Contemporary politicians have found it easier not to lead. They would
- Ligne n°207 : rather press wedge issues than forge solutions. The Constitution put
- Ligne n°208 : compromise at the center of every aspect of government. And the
- Ligne n°209 : inability to establish meaningful ties across the aisle is the
- Ligne n°210 : principle reason for the dysfunction in government today.
- Ligne n°211 :
- Ligne n°212 : If that is to change, the people, not politicians, must be the ones to
- Ligne n°213 : do the work. They can recapture the American spirit, consciously
- Ligne n°214 : embrace the American identity and seek common ground. Accept a shared
- Ligne n°215 : history and common vision for the future based on American principles.
- Ligne n°216 : Tone down the disputes that ravage the body politic. Heat up the
- Ligne n°217 : melting pot and stop drawing lines that divide people. End the fighting
- Ligne n°218 : over the supposed moral high ground that has left it a burned over
- Ligne n°219 : hill. Rediscover the positive virtues and harness the natural optimism
- Ligne n°220 : of a free people.
- Ligne n°221 :
- Ligne n°222 : Patriotism is not a thoughtless glorification of all things American,
- Ligne n°223 : whether good or ill. It is the recognition of American ideals, and a
- Ligne n°224 : belief in seeking the best for the country as a whole. It is a
- Ligne n°225 : reaffirmation of the aspects of Americanism that speak to the best in
- Ligne n°226 : everyone.
- Ligne n°227 :
- Ligne n°228 : Patriotism is a commendable sentiment. It is only through nurturing
- Ligne n°229 : this sense of goodness and recognizing it in each other, even those
- Ligne n°230 : with whom we disagree, that the country can survive, if it is meant to.
- Ligne n°231 : There is nothing wrong with the USA that couldn't be fixed if the
- Ligne n°232 : country had more American patriots.
