Do americans over value their country?

Some of us do, some of us don't.

If I could move somewhere else I would. Kinda hate it here.

Yes they do. A lot put flags outside their houses, and kids recite the pledge of allegiance everyday before school. Also most have a habit of always referring to the country as "great." And you get that nauseating US patriotism from them when you criticise/mock their country or they begin to talk about it. Methinks they protest too much ...

The USA is over rated , especially with the mess that OBUMA left the country in and he bankrupted the country.
Obuma said when Bush left in January 2009 that the national debt of $ 8.5 trillion was unacceptable and unamerican.
So , what is Obuma saying now that when he left in January 2017 , the national debt was $ 20 trillion ?
If he thought $ 8.5 trillion was unacceptable and unamerican , what does he think of the $ 20 trillion that he left the debt at ?
Obuma has accumulated more debt $ 11.5 trillion in 8 years than every other president before him combined
{ $ 8.5 trillion } in 232 years.
He accumulated 2 1/2 X more debt in 8 years than what the national debt was over the course of 232 years before Obuma.
He is a total hypocrite.
Its a total disaster and catastrophe in shambles.

In a way, yes.
Quite a few Americans value patriotism and lack a true appreciation for what patriotism truly entails.

I'm referring to specific ideologies, here.
The desire for freedom whilst protesting the rights of women to have full medical dominion of their bodies and LGBT individuals to have equal rights and freedom of public expression without retaliation.

The first amendment right while desiring that this country abide by religious rules that this amendment was created specifically to prohibit.

The right to the pursuit of happiness and that all men are created equal while refusing to acknowledge that businesses and corporations are failing to do their part to ensure that their employees, tenants, customers etc. are safe, provided for and able to meet the most basic of human needs that must be met before any of us are free to pursue happiness and prosperity.

There is nothing wrong with patriotism but this patriotism is hugely and sadly divided.

A lot of Americans do but not all. I have heard some Americans say how the USA is the best and all other countries suck and are like 3rd world countries. Well, in my country and many other countries around the world we do not have a lot of the massive and major problems the USA has. I am not saying the USA is the worst country to live in either because it is not but there is no denying the USA has a lot of problems no other OECD countries have and that is a fact.

Upper middle class Americans that vacation internationally realize that the U.S. has messy problems, and pushes other countries around without realizing they're doing it. Lower middle and working class Americans are unrealistically patriotic because their horizons are too short. It is too expensive for them to leave the U.S.

It's not that. We use to be a strong country who will help our allies when needed, or assist others in crisis. Yeah, sometimes we have shitty leaders here and there, but remain mostly the same while becoming a country both tolerant of each other (putting the slavery history, racism, etc behind us), and of others who enter our country for a better life.

Thanks to our voting system, we now have a president who tries to ban "Muslims." Muslim is what you call people who practice Islam, it's not a race. He couldn't even tell the difference or have the respect to, and banning people isn't what America does.

Then he does that nonsense with Australian prime minister, and more. He's making us look like a joke to the world.

I think most people are like that in a good country.
People leaving their countries love going to the USA, and then want America to become the same as the country they left!
Lol.
