When Americans say they are proud of their heritage what is the earliest event they are proud of?
Just wondered where in time american national pride start and what the associated event was: Development of American Indian culture, Spanish colonies in Pacific, French colonies in Louisiana, British colonies in Jamestown, Landing of the Pilgrim fathers, the Boston Tea Party, the war and./or declaration of Independence, the winning of the west, the abolition of slavery, the 2 world wars, putting a man on the moon. You choose.
I think we are proud of most of this. The history we are taught in school usually makes it sound as if America "started" with Jamestown, so I guess that is where most of our national pride starts. This probably varies for different people, however. For example, I feel that winning our independence is when our nation started, though I am proud of most of those events, especially the abolition of slavery.
As for Americans who are proud of their heritage, I think everyone should be proud of their heritage. Every country in the world has some amazing things in their history, and no one is better than any other.
all of them cause this is america and we fu<king rule b!tch.

They really have nothing to be proud of. They’re all immigrants. They all fought wars that didn’t need fighting, killed innocent people in the name of God and then said it’s the American Way.

If you believe in the "four screens and a cloud" vision, Apple already has a large stake in three of the four screens: the one you put in your pocket (iPhone), your tablet (iPad), and the one you work on (iMac/Macbook). The fourth screen (TV) is the large remaining opportunity. Apple TV, while just a glorified cable at the moment, will be unlocked and get an app store so you can play games, run apps, buy things, download content, and control the whole experience with your iPad/iPhone as a remote. Jobs has spoken about the lock that the cable companies have on the TV experience, but that is rapidly being relaxed since folks are getting so used to downloading content via the internet.
Ha,ha. Yes, stupid Americans. Especially those really stupid Americans from Berlin, Germany…
