Perhaps it is an idealized view of our nation.
But isn't Epcot and indeed Disney an idealized view of life in most ways? Why should the American Adventure model any differently from the rest of the park experience.
Not everything is meant to be a true history class. America, like every nation and indeed every person, has things to be proud of and things to regret. But we do have to be proud of and the fact that they are idealized here is simply part of the overall Disney experience.
(In this same vein, you won't find realistic depictions of Viking battles, French living conditions before the revolution, or mustard gas reenactments in Germany.)
