That which you dismiss as whining is simply me expressing pride in our great country and with what we have accomplished so far. You should try it.

It's important to understand our nation's true history, the good and the bad. Whitewashing is not constructive.

It was easy for me to grow up without a clue about our countries history of racism. Even in high school it was possible for me to think that was mostly over with the end of the Civil War. That's not a good thing but it is what the right is pushing now. A false patriotism based on burying the past. Better to confront the reality and strive to make America a better country, not deny history.
