Good idea, but doubt it if will pass. We need to get America back to where everyone loves this country and will help it stay good. The dems wont' do it. Rad the book byMark Levin--The Democrat Party hates America. I'v read it twice and it sue is very TRUE>
A soldier takes an oath, a judge, a doctor, a nurse, there are a lot of things to take an oath to. Or to do. Do you me to tell me these professionals can't have a loving relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ? Hummm.
I'm just not sure about that one. As Americans, we are to stand with our sister country Israel! You think God is up there telling our soldiers they can fight for Israel but can't take an oath to defend our nation that was built with Christ in mind, and not defend the country that God Himself loves so much?????
Dan Turner is 100 0/0 correct on all points. When I went to school the pledge was said every morning in every homeroom class and again en masse if we had assembly. We were also actually TAUGHT English, and had social studies class at least three times a week. POTUS should reach out to Mr. Turner. I think they would work well together. Just sayin'.
ALL fifty-one constitutions guarantee the right to establish and exercise religion. For many, their religion revolves around the scriptures of the Bible, King James or similar.
Mindful of the foregoing, the Bible tells us we can have allegiance to only one mastrer. If we pledge our allegiance to more than one, we will love one and hate the other.
Pledging your allegiance to that tool of We The People, which is found in the District of Columbia, would put believers in their god/God at odds with him.
THEN there is that the U.S. is not a thing to be worshiped. It is a valued tool. As we any valued tool, we should protect it from damage, maintain it to insure it operates in accord with what we intended, repair it, when need arose, and, if damaged beyond repair, replace it.
Better than compelling, or teaching, people to do what the founders never would have done (e.g., make themselves subservient to their tool, such as by, blindly, pledging their allegiance to their mere tool using what a socialist (Francis Bellamy, a Baptist minister and "Christian Socialist") wrote), teach people to tend their tool, as they should.
My sister lives near the Canadian border. Last I heard, she is not allowed to purchase land in Canada in excess of a 49% share yet Canadians are allowed to purchase land in her area 100%. It creates a lot of enmity towards the Canadians, so much so that when my wife and I planned a quick trip to Niagara Falls she was not as upset that we didn’t tell her as she was that we reserved a room on the Canadian side.
BTW, she only found out because a short thunderstorm delayed my trip from Chicago for 6 hours while my wife’s trip from New Jersey arrived on time. Somebody had to pick her up at Buffalo airport!
The Pledge of Allegiance was fine until fundamentalist Christians got the words "under god" added in the 1950s. I don't believe in the biblical "god" and never say those words. Remove those two dis-unifying words and maybe we can talk. And, no, not a "leftist." Try a libertarian leaning, and compassionate, conservative.
In my Western state, people are generally fine with how the federal public lands are managed. Many people volunteer with the federal agencies for duties ranging from helping in the offices to getting out and doing trail maintenance. Thanks to visionary federal laws, people actually have input into the land management decisions. Before NEPA, the BLM stood for "Bureau of Livestock and Mining." If one had the big money, one could get into the smoke filled back rooms where the decisions were made. Ordinary citizens were excluded.
I have a number of friends in all areas of the outdoor recreation community: hiking, rock climbing, backpacking, off road vehicles (on trails approved for that use), hunters, anglers, wildlife photographers, etc. Few people like the sell-off proposal. The hard core sell off proponents; Senator Mike Lee, various authors of the relevant sections of Project 2025; ignore the FACT that the American Southwest is in a decades long drought. There just isn't the water necessary to service large new tracts of "affordable" housing.
No, it wasn't fine before the addition of someone's version of their god.
It remains, for all times relevant, it was propaganda written by s socialist (Francis Bellamy, a Baptist minister and "Christian Socialist").
It has always been programming purposed to encourage the kind of behavior that produced imbecilic attitudes like, "[m]y country, right or wrong" that are contrary to what the founders knew and believed.
The thousands of governments found all across our lands are tools purposed to serve We The People. They are not things to be elevated above us, their masters.
A major principle of the Declaration of Independence is, though we respect and care for our tools, and every one of the thousands of governments found across our lands are just tools, we must be ready to replace it on a moment's notice, when need rises.
All governments are incapable of either good or ill, except through acts of agents acting in a given government's name.
We have not just one and, instead, have fifty-one constitutions. Each exists to bind down public agents.
Blindly pledging allegiance to a tool requiring agents' actions to do anything in its name mocks the existence of those fifty-one constitutions.
I believe the full saying is this: "my country right or wrong, may she always be in the right."
As for "socialism," it's been prevalent in the US since the founding of the country. We tax ourselves for the common good, which is "socialism." The "common good" is coming together to build schools, libraries, utilities, roads, bridges, sidewalks in our communities. Also providing care for the genuinely needy or those who can't care for themselves due to age or disability.
It remains, it is but a valued a tool and not a thing to be blinding honored and worshiped. Just as with any tool, it is only as good as those [agents] running it. The two are inseparable, if anything is to be done in that tool's name.
Our founders understood this, and knew those agents could not be trusted. Past performance, even then, was an indicator of future behavior. It was for that reason they gave us not just one constitution, but one for the federal government and one for each state, so fifty-one at present.
Proof of the need for every one of those constitutions shows on the face of thousands upon thousands of public records that may be found in courts all across our lands. In those records may be seen findings of guilt for rape, murder, arson, theft, extortion, pedophilia, incest, treason, abuse of office and so on.
#1. Declare the Democratic party a terrorist organization
#2. Banish Islam from the USA
#3. Return education to Rand McNally instead of Scholastic

#7. American politicians must honor their Oaths of office, and be held accountable.
#8.Term limits
#9 . Politicians must prove ability to hold office.

This is bullshit. The writer knows absolutely nothing about the left.
The closer to the truth the comments become like yours.
This was not a reply to Steve.

How do they feel about the proposed sell off to corporations if public lands?
