Schooling Generations in American Exceptionalism

My thought is that what is being proposed is pretty much what I was taught in school while in the US. Jingoistic fervor. Other countries have it too.

I have always thought Nationalism is dangerous and arrogant and had hoped that by now we as a nation would be better than this.

The only good side I can see is that kids today have Libraries and the Internet and hopefully will learn to think for themselves like we did.
