    As a veteran, and current Department of the US Army civilian employee, I have spent 11 years overseas. I'm proud to say that I have had the pleasure to see the Charlie Daniels Band many of those years. I have seen the video of Red Skelton reciting this version of the Pledge of Allegiance, and it always brings a feeling of pride to my heart. Thank you Charlie Daniels for keeping this fresh. This country, and especially the elected officials need to listen to this daily!

      I'll have to look again, but "Under god" was added after lobbying by the Knights of Columbus, right?
      I'm pretty sure that the original was written by the socialist Edward Bellamy. He dialed back his meaning by not throwing in "fraternity" or other Jacobin nonsense.

    I seen Red in Vegas at 16 while visiting my aunt. It was my favorite thing I did on my visit. He showed people how to really laugh and be thankful in a Clean and Funny way. Emit Kelly the clown was backup and I could really see the love for children they had over theirself. Beside seeing the 1976 independence day fireworks, seeing Red was the coolest. Blessings to you and your family, Mrs M. ✝️💜✝️

    God bless the American people; God bless Charlie Daniels; God bless Red Skeleton; and God bless you, whoever is reading this, regardless of whether or not you believe in the blessings of God. If belief is absent from the heart and soul of whoever is reading this, you'll find out soon enough that God's blessings are more real than anything else you'll ever see or feel. I just hope and pray that it won't be too late for you. If you're reading this and already believe, I tip my hat to you.

    I - - Me; an individual; a committee of one.
    Pledge - - Dedicate all of my worldly goods to give without self-pity.
    Allegiance - - My love and my devotion.
    To the Flag - - Our standard; Old Glory ; a symbol of Freedom; wherever she waves there is respect, because your loyalty has given her a dignity that shouts, Freedom is everybody's job.
    United - - That means that we have all come together.
    States - - Individual communities that have united into forty-eight great states. Forty-eight individual communities with pride and dignity and purpose. All divided with imaginary boundaries, yet united to a common purpose, and that is love for country.
    And to the Republic - - Republic--a state in which sovereign power is invested in representatives chosen by the people to govern. And government is the people; and it's from the people to the leaders, not from the leaders to the people.
    For which it stands
    One Nation - - One Nation--meaning, so blessed by God.
    Indivisible - - Incapable of being divided.
    With Liberty - - Which is Freedom; the right of power to live one's own
    life, without threats, fear, or some sort of retaliation.
    And Justice - - The principle, or qualities, of dealing fairly with others.
    For All - - For All--which means, boys and girls, it's as much your country as it is mine.
    And now, boys and girls, let me hear you recite the Pledge of Allegiance:
    I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic, for which it stands; one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
    Since I was a small boy, two states have been added to our country, and two words have been added to the Pledge of Allegiance: Under God. Wouldn't it be a pity if someone said that is a prayer, and that would be eliminated from schools, too?

    Those who claim that this country was founded on racism or the disrespect for the people living here are so wrong. I blame your educators for hiding the some of the truth and just focusing on what was done wrong like no other nation on earth hasn't done terrible things to people of other countries. Remember what Spain did to the Myan and Aztec nations for lands and their nations wealth. That was the standard in those days get over it. I pledge allegiance to the UNITED STATES of AMERICA and to the republic for which it stands! Those words bring hope to me that this country is the best when certain rules are followed. That has not been done by this and past administrations. We need to go back to a representative government which we do not have at the present time.
