I voted Nationalism because I definitely think that people rally around their flag during the Olympics and certainly don't rally around someone elses flag. At the end of the day, I think the games promote peace through athletic competition also though. People that don't respect or like people from another country come to respect them when an athlete from that country performs particularly well or valiantly. I'm in the middle on this but I still think when it comes down to it, the games promote more nationalism than anything else.
But it don't take much to get me by
So just booze me up and get me high
