Bingo! An enlightened nationalism simply means that the purpose of a nation is to provide for the well being of all of its citizens.

At present we have a hybrid between nationalism and globalism and the worst part of both. When they want you to die in Iraq, it's fighting for your country; when they want to outsource your job, it's because we're a global marketplace.
