Agreeing Without Saying Goodbye to Patriotism

In his article, Jenson centers his thoughts on his country, in this sentence:

“I live in the United States and have deep emotional ties to the people, land, and ideals of this place. Because of these feelings, I want to highlight the positive while working to change what is wrong” (Jenson).

Personally, I do agree with Jenson on this particular sentiment one should project towards his or her country.  However, this definition, in my eyes, still constitutes as patriotism.  Most notably, the "moderate," or "liberal patriotism"  we discussed from the second article last week.  What are your thoughts?
