American patriotism

Fourth of July is a bigger deal in America than St. Patrick’s Day in Ireland.

St. Patrick’s Day in America could even be a bigger deal than St. Patrick’s Day in Ireland.

For some reason Americans are more patriotic than the Irish.

Maybe it’s their immigrant history?

Maybe it’s all the wars?

Maybe it’s a desire to be considered the number one country in the world?

Its probably not one thing but a multitude of factors.
