"I pledege allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic four witches stand. One nation, under God, invisible with liberty and justice for all. Amen."
OmiGod! Does everyone else know!! Four witches, invisible (or was God invisible?). OmiGod! What am I praying to?!

When we said the pledge in class I thought it was "one nation under God, invisible..." I thought the country could be made invisible. It made me feel better because I was terrified of nuclear war.

I used to think that the Pledge went, "One nation under guard". I remember saying long after I learned the real words.

I used to know most of the words for the pledge of allegence, but for the life of me couldn't figure out who "Liverdy" and "Justice Verall" were...but I knew that they MUST be important people...
the Pledge of Allegiance threw me as a kid "... and to the Republic for Richard Stands..." I waited for so many years trying to find out who Richard Stands was. We were told about Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln. I thought this man Stands must really be something to be in the Pledge.

Every morning in grade school we said the Pledge to the Flag. The Pledge includes the words "... one nation under God for which it stands...." referring to the flag. For many years I really wondered what those witches' stands were like. Were they like vegtable stands with witches hanging around or what?
Don: Still not convinced the Pledge does anything for kids patriotism
up until the 6th grade (embarrasingly enough) I thought that we as a class pledged our allegiance to the united states of america, and to the republic for Richard Stanz, one nation...etc.
It wasn't until I looked up Richard Stanz, in a history book, and couldn't find the name of what must have been our country's #1 patriot.

Every day in school we would say the Pledge of Allegiance and I thought there was a word "whichit" like "for whichit stands" and had no idea of the meaning behind what I was taught to recite.

I used to think that Richard Stands was a great American Patriot from the Revolutionary War era. That came from learning the American "Pledge of Allegiance," which school kids (used to) recite every morning. It went, "I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for Richard Stands (which it stands), one nation, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all."

I used to believe the line in the Pledge of Allegiance read ... and to the republic for Richard Stands... I'd ask my parents and teachers who Richard Stands was but nobody knew. It was such a mystery to me.
