Yes, I believe that socialism and nationalism can coexist. Some people have already shown the examples here, and I agree with most of them (Germany under Hitler, USSR under Stalin, and Venezuela under Hugo Chavez, among others).

Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.

It depends what sort of socialism you're talking about. I don't think Marxism and nationalism can co-exist.

Marxism and nationalism can't coexist - Marxism is opposed to nationalism. Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels rejected it, and Marx wrote in The Communist Manifesto, "The working men have no country."
