His patriotism should be measured in his actions and words, not with some chinese-made metal and plastic pin. Patriotism has been reduced to irrational jingoism. It's really sad. I wish he wouldn't wear an American Flag lapel pin. Buck the system.
I agree, but I was satisfied by his answer regarding his giving in to wearing the stupid lapel pin. He said, and I do not quote, that he has met so many veterans over the course of the campaign so far who have given him pins and said, "we know you're patriotic, please just shut them up by wearing this" or something like that. It's so stupid!
