Pledge of Allegiance by: Amiko Valenzuela
The Pledge of Allegiance is one of the most know things in America kids say in public schools and at the president's speeches.

Today it reads:
"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."
Section 4 of the Flag Code states:
The Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag: "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.", should be rendered by standing at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. When not in uniform men should remove any non-religious headdress with their right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, the hand being over the heart. Persons in uniform should remain silent, face the flag, and render the military salute."
But what I think about the flag is that how we have to say it every day I mean why do we have to do it and why is it so important I only do it because everyone else does it I also do it because the teachers get mad at me so thats why I do it mostly the other reason I do it is because I want to respect my grandpa for serving the
