While the poll showed strong pride in America, it did reveal several noteworthy differences in the level of pride among demographic groups.
Men, for example, are far more proud than women to be American (81% of men say they are extremely or very proud, compared with 65% of women).
Single women are far less proud of their nationality than married women (51% vs. 70%).
Somewhat surprisingly, colleges and universities – which have become bastions of America-hating leftists – seem to be inadvertently instilling American pride in their students. The poll found that 75% of college graduates are proud to be an American, compared with 62% of those with only a high school diploma.
