Just $0.02 before this thread ends...

I live beside Camp Lejeune, NC and work with a lot of
ex-military types who share John and Brian's
sentiments.  But when you look at the people my age
group (20's) there is a very distinct lack of any sort
of sentiment other than self-interest.	On top of
that, a good majority of the population (at least in
this part of the USA) is part-Hispanic or black and
they have more ties to their ethnic background than to
the USA.  Take these trends a few years into the
future and you may end up with a situation where
anti-monarchy patriotism has become an insignificant
minority.
