Republicans are playing with a fire that could burn down our nation & Democrats must get control of the Senate now and nuke the filibuster so they can pass the laws that will protect our democracy.
Assuming humanity's self-civilization process gets back on track, people may someday look back at this period as a less-than-fully-civilized time when the biggest investors were allowed to sue corporate officers for missing an opportunity to increase profits even if doing so would break the Golden Rule in some big obvious way.
There's now no better way for corporate officials of large corporations to increase profits than to pay people to bribe or threaten government officials into becoming minion-puppets (much like those very corporate officials).
Have you ever wondered why the words “equal and people are not included in The Pledge of Allegiance?
This is a copy of the letter I sent to President Biden. I will be sending it to Vice President Harris also.
To President Biden
Not only do we have to build our economy “back better” we need to rebuild our society back better!
Together we can decrease the hate and increase the unity of the middle class and the working poor!
Think about this. If we improved the message of The Pledge, wouldn’t our children mature with a better perspective of their fellow citizens. They would support government legislators that support full citizenship for all American citizens so these policies would become the basis of our economy and society.
To improve racial justice and racial equality we must confront our history.
Why I wrote the 21st-century version of The Pledge of Allegiance.
If you read the writing history of The Pledge, you will realize The Pledge supports white male supremism, which goes against everything I believe what America is about.
The following is a paragraph copied from the article “The Marketing Of The Pledge Of Alegiance.
“A socialist, Francis Bellamy, the
author of The Pledge of Allegiance, wanted to include the words “equality” and “fraternity” in the pledge, but his editors rejected the idea on the basis that state superintendents opposed the idea of equality for women and African Americans.” (Therefore the state school superintendents would not buy flags for the thousands of American public schools. The primary reason why The Pledge was written was to sell flags to all the public schools around thee world)
Bellamy acquiesced, and on September 9, 1892, the original version of the Pledge of Allegiance made its debut in The Youth’s Companion: “
The 1892 version of The Pledge Of Allegiance.
"I pledge allegiance to my Flag and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all"
After reading the writing history and adoption of The Pledge of Allegiance into our schools and government over the years I knew something had to be done to correct the travesty that had been done to America in 1892 when The Pledge Of Allegiance was written.
No I am not a foreign troll. I am an American citizen that is concerned about the 1892 Pledge of Allegiance’s message of inequality and exclusion which The Pledge is teaching our children.
To understand what I am talking about and what I am wanting to accomplish, you would have to read the articles I read. The two best articles were ” The Selling of The Pledge of Allegiance ” and ”The Ugly Truth Of The Pledge of Allegiance and why it matters”
Also read the articles I wrote and posted on my Leonard C. Tekaat Facebook page.
A lot of people think that racism and sexism are wide spread now. Racism and sexism were much much much worse in the 1890s. Racism and sexism of the 1890s is why Francis Bellamy, the author of The Pledge Of Allegiance, did not include the word ”equal” before the words Liberty and Justice.” It is the same reason he did not put the word ”people” after the word ”all.” .
I want to eliminate the racist/sexist problem of The Pledge and improve the message of our Pledge to our beloved Flag and Republic, that is why I added the word “equal before the word “Justice” and the word “Everyone “after the word “For.”
I included the sentences ”Guided By The People, It’s Constitution and Goodness. I also added the sentence ”Responsibility and Opportunity For Everybody ” in the 21st Century Pledge of Allegiance. These sentences empower our children, giving them hope for a better future, with more opportunities, if they mature as responsible people. The other sentence reminds our elected government representatives, who gives the government it’s ”just powers” as outlined in the Declaration of Independence.
The 21st Century Pledge Of Allegiance.
I Pledge Allegiance To The Flag Of The United States Of America And To The Republic For Which It Stands. One Nation, Indivsable, Guided By The People, It’s Constitution, and Goodness, With Equal Justice And Liberty for Everyone. Responsibility And Opportunity For Eveybody!
When you read the writing history of The Pledge Of Allegiance you will understand why The Pledge needs to be Improved and updated.

Using the wisdom of Abraham Lincoln for updating and improving The Pledge Of Allegiance
Our guidance for the improvement and updating of The Pledge Of Allegiance should be an updated version of President Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address.
On July 4, 1776 our nation’s fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Equal Liberty and Justice and dedicated to the proposition that all people are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil debate, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure, shall have a new birth of Equal Liberty and Justice, Responsibility, and Opportunity for Everyone —and that the government shall be of the people, by the people and for the people guided by it’s constitution. and goodness.
