Today as we head into this July 4th weekend, we look at a recent survey from RealClear Opinion Research examining American attitudes about patriotism. Is patriotism putting up the flag on the fourth, or kneeling in protest during the anthem? Supporting the troops, or being critical of America’s complicated history? What does it mean to be patriotic in a highly polarized nation? To discuss this and much more, host John Sorensen is joined by Tom Bevan co-founder and president of RealClear, Carl Cannon, Washington Bureau Chief, and John Della Volpe, director of polling for RealClear Opinion Research and at Harvard University’s Institute of Politics. Be sure to check out the show notes below for a link to the article about this fascinating new survey. Join us each week on Tuesday and Thursday, as RealClear’s journalists discuss the issues of the day. Then be sure to check out our audio only podcast on Fridays for our weekly political roundup.
