Introduction “ I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America‚ and to the republic for which it stands‚ one nation under God‚ indivisible‚ with liberty and justice for all” (“Pledge”).

Some people consider the Pledge to be “An outdated and unnecessary ritual with a constitutionally questionable reference and false promises of liberty and justice for all” (Tucker). It has become an artifact of the past and

The pledge of allegiance was written in 1892 as "I pledge allegiance to my Flag and the Republic for which it stands‚ one nation‚ indivisible‚ with liberty and justice for all."

I am living the American dream. No‚ I do not aspire to live in an oversized house‚ protected by a white-picket fence. But I am living the American dream. See‚ the American dream is not‚ and never was‚ about economic prosperity; rather‚ the American dream is to dream- to imagine a world better than our’s.

forbids the government from favoring one religion‚ yet students are supposed to recite the Pledge of Allegiance each morning‚ which includes the phrase‚ “under God”. In the Constitution‚ James Madison wrote that the government shall in no way break the barrier between church and state.

Most problems and complaints toward the pledge of allegiance come from parents‚ not the students. Most students are just caught in the middle of a fight between the schools trying to follow the law and their religious parents.
