American patriotism is, in principle, different from all other forms, because to be an American is to believe in certain ideas.

Love of America is really love of those ideas -- the political and moral principles that define the nation and unite its people.

I would suggest that such persons as Fred Korematsu are the exemplars of American patriotism we most want to keep in mind.
