There is no United States.
The Pledge is False Advertising.
Tribes will each have their own anthems.
Colors.
Weapons.
Uniforms.
Hopefully the UN Peacekeepers don't rape us when they come to help us, like they do elsewhere in the world.
Mind you, I'd be flattered if someone wanted my ugly fat ass.

Our pledge is messed up. I'm OK with allegiance to "the Republic for which it stands", but not the piece of cloth (flag), nor the "under god" bit (which was added in the middle of the 20th century...illegally...but this SCOTUS will never overturn it).

I was in the 6th grade when Pres Eisenhower asked Congress to add that to the pledge. My parents were very very upset, regarding that as going against the separation of church and state.....and also sensing that it was only the Christian god that was intended. In my school we began every day by standing up, putting our right hand over our heart, and reciting the Pledge of Allegiance. When "under God" was added, my parents instructed my younger brother and me to remain silent during that phrase.
