I used to believe that the part of the Pledge of Allegiance "and to the Republic for which it stands" was "and to the Republic where witches stands" until I was 16 and saw it written on the wall of an elementary school classroom.

All through kindergarten and first grade, I ended the pledge of allegiance by saying "...with liberty and Jesus frog." I finally realized I was wrong while watching an episode of Boy Meets World.

I always said it right, but I had a few weird beliefs about the pledge.

For one thing, my family was democrat (and I thought political party was genetic so I was automatically a democrat), so when I learned about republicans and democrats in third grade I thought it was wrong to say the part that goes "and to the Republic for which it stands" because I wasn't republican! Why do they get a line in the pledge, and not the democrats?

when I was in k-4th grade I went to a school with a lot of mexican-americans and a lot of them spoke spanish and so we said the pledge of alligiance in english and in spanish everyday, you can imagine my embarassment when I moved and they didn't do that at my new school and I was the only kid in class saying the pledge in spanish ahhahaha.

In kindergaten, I thought the last line of the pledge went "in liberty and justice frog". A few months after starting kindergaten, I realized I had the pledge memorized. I eagerly went to my parents and recited it. I didn't understand why they were cracking up...

I pledge allegiance to the flag and to the republic of Richard Stanz, one nation, under Bob, invisible, with liver tea and justice for all. Amen.

...was how I thought the pledge went until about fourth grade.

"GREAT STUFF Up until about 2nd grade, i thought the pledge procceded something like this:
"I pledge alegence, to the frog, of theUnited States of America, and to the wee public, for witches hands, one nation, under God, invisible, with a little tea, and just rice for all"!"

Um, this is from a *book.* I can't remember the name of it, but it's from a book titled something like "A Thousand Paper Cranes" about a girl who emigrates from Japan to the US and gets leukemia.

You know in the pledge when you say "...and to the republic, for which it stands..."? I used to believe that "which it stands" was the name of a person. Mr. Wichit Stands.

When I learned the pledge, I thought it went:
I pledge (like the cleaner) a legion
To the flag of the USA
And to their we love it - ?
From which his stand
One nation, Underbob, Invisible
With Liberty Ann Justice (like it was a name) 4-all.

I though bob was like another god and stood up on his stand and we pledged the US (a legion) to him and promised to keep it clean or else he would make us invisble. O, and Liberty Justice was his wife.

When i was in kindergarten, I thought the part of pledge of allegiance (USA) went "and to the republic, for Richard stands". So every morning when we said the pledge, I'd turn and smile at the kid named Richard in my class at that part. I thought he was going to grow up, and automaticaly become president.

I used to believe that I would get in serious trouble for not saying the pledge. Tried it out one day, got dragged to the office, and got informed by the principal that it was my right not to say the pledge. Woohoo for opening my eyes to my rights!

I used to think that the Pledge of Alliegence was something you had to do every day or God would get really mad, so in the morning on weekends I would quietly do the Pledge to this little plastic American flag. My mom never knew about this. Also, I knew the words but I didn't really know what they meant until 2nd Grade when our teacher explained it all. I thought it meant you were worshipping the flag and it seemed to me like you were supposed to bow to it.

I used to believe that when we said the Pledge of Allegiance, we were actually pledging to be soldiers.
So I went home and I said, "Mommy, don't send me to a war!!"
And she looked at me as if I had four eyes. "What happened?"
"They made us say the pledge of Allegiance!"
So she explained it to me. And since I had told EVERYONE in my little class that we were going to some "war", I had to explain it to them too.
Stupid on my part, lol.

I always used to sneeze during the Plege. On a snow day, in the moring, i snezzed. I looked at the c,lock. It was a round the time that we WOULD be saying the pledge in class! I became terified that my body had become accustomed to sneezing at that time, and i would AKWAYS, my whole life, sneeze at that time.

They never really did a good job of explaining the Pledge of Allegiance to us preschoolers. For a good many years, I thought that the line "liberty and justice for all" was suggesting that we all get a steaming cup of Liber Tea, whatever THAT is. With a side of justice.
