For one, I'd like to see her, or anyone else breakdown the Blue States. I'd bet that eastern Oregon and Washington are pretty damn patriotic, as is most of California, Colorado, New York, Illinois, Ohio, and even Jersey. Get away from the urban centers and all of those states take on entirely different characteristics. Hell, Southern Illinois has some of the greatest deer hunting in the country. Folks that do that aren't sipping mocha chai latte's on a sidewalk somewhere in Chicago, Bloomington or Springfield. The hunters in Illinois are the ones that take off their hats, with their right hand, where it's promptly placed over the heart.
Study says that water is wet!
I could have told them that and saved them a lot of time, effort and money...............
Yeah, but “patriotic” is just another word for racist. /s
Why would a “study” be needed to conclude that, and who PAID for it?
I call BS. Vermont is 19 and MO is 25?

Americorps, Peace Corps?
Trial & Grand Jury Participation? depends on the crime rates doesn’t it?
Frequency of google search for American Flag? Well that’s just stupid and I don’t even use google. I use duckduckgo which doesn’t track anyone - there is no data for them to go by.
Civics Education Requirement? What is that? Oh, a duckduckgo search brings up Illinois and DC. Never had it in my old school but I do remember things like that from Boy Scouts back when it was normal. Not that they can track my Boy Scout badges.
Would have been easier to just look at a 2016 presidential election results map. Who voted to MAGA?
And you would win the bet! Most of Oregon is actually read, only blue part is where it’s heaviest populated, Portland, Salem and Eugene. We’re very patriotic on the east side! Same with Washington.
But,but, patriotism is racism, Nationalism(KKK) oh and we’re all Nazi’s!!!!!!!!!
American city dwellers have more in common with the socialist European city dwellers than they do with America. Big cities import 100% of everything they consume. In their view importing from China is no different than importing from America except the price is cheaper. They have no loyalty to anything. Like homosexuals, city dwellers do not reproduce much and must recruit their replacement population or go extinct.
Hmmm, if they’re more patriotic, why did more votes in CA go to Trump, than the combined Trump votes of Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Nevada and Arizona?
Red state vs Blue state division WRT patriotism is just plain stupid.

That goes for just about everywhere outside of the metro shitcago area.
That Virginia should be ranked first in patriotism, and yet went for Hillary shows how crooked that election was. Then Gov. Terry McAuliffe was probably paid handsomely by the Clinton Foundation for letting felons vote and for extending voting hours in Democrat ghettos.
This is a somewhat long essay and I know I’ve said before that it’s a VERY IMPORTANT READ. THIS ONE IS! A sample:|
“The time has come to reboot America. The time for talk is done. We should be about the business of forming patriotic cadres, groups and movements—from the national level down to splinter cells. We should do this now. Some of you have no doubt been involved in such activities for some time. Now is the time to go into full battle mode—this is no drill.”
I’m betting, no, PRAYING, that if you read the first few paragraphs, you won’t be able to stop!
Which element of the “5-5-90 Rule” will you occupy?
5% make things happen;
5% WATCH things happen;
90% look around and ask “What the hell happened?”

Of course, Blue states are less patriotic. Patriotism isn’t ‘inclusive.’
So the next thing to come along will be how bad patriotism is.
Some of these reason have nothing to do sot h patriotism.
“e pluribus unum”
is what stands in the way of leftist power.
dividing people is their goal.
attempting such will be their doom.
