And actually, even though it was "The Federation", you could see alot of regular American values in it. (Showing off my nerdiness) The episode The Omega Glory near the end of the 2nd season of the original series was based around a battle between the residents of the planet, whom I believe were called the Yangs ("Yankees") and Kohms ("Communists"). At the end of the episode, Kirk gave a large dissertation on the US Constitution (which the Yangs consider to be a supreme lawgiving document). Patriotic episode indeed.

Yup. I remember that one. And the one where the fellow was half-black and half white.
There were alot of classic episodes.
I still get warmed up when I think about the green broad.
Susan Oliver was gorgeous.

I'll never forget Kisk shouting to people from both sides the headline of the constitution. "WE THE PEOPLE!"

Yes, one of the better episodes, and one where, once again, the Prime Directive was conveniently ignored! At least in that episode, they did not have to crash the central computer by confounding its logic.

I may be getting this mixed up with a different episode, but wasn't that one also the one in which they thought the Yangs were primative because they worshiped the Sun? But then they realized at the end that it wasn't the 'sun', it was the 'Son' - The Son of God, Jesus. Was that the same episode?

You'd never see that episode today.
