I don’t normally like “mandates” but I make an exception in this case. I propose we mandate putting the Pledge of Allegiance back in ALL Schools whether public or private! It is imperative that future generations (including and especially immigrant children) have a strong foundation and understanding of our country’s pledge, so they may better honor, defend and support the REPUBLIC for decades to come. They must learn we are NOT a “democracy” for a very specific reason and recite this pledge daily.

As we are NOT a democracy but a Federated Republic, perhaps we should teach children about the Sovereignty of their State and not have them thinking that the Federal Gov’t is the Know all, Do all. That thinking is what got us here in the first place.

A huge percentage of the population would only agree with this IF the pledge was taken back to it’s original form. Non-religious students should not be made to pledge “Under God”.
“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.”
If you want your religious freedom protected, you must protect everyone’s religious freedom.
