Old School Wrote:To me it does matter, for a person to be running for President of the United States, he/she should show respect to his country. One thing is for sure, you don't know anything about me or how much of a patriot I am. I know times are a lot different today than they were in 50 or so years ago, but back then every candidate would use the U.S. flag and red, white and blue colors when campaigning and they made sure they showed their patriotism to the citizens of the U.S. maybe that's something we as a country need to get back to.
Dwight Eisenhower was a decorated veteran, an obvious patriot. Yet he cautioned Americans about the emerging "industrial-military complex." And, I think you are right, candidates do USE the flag. I would think that deep belief in and faithful adherence to the Bill of Rights would trump wearing a flag when evaluating real patriotism.
