Debugging the Pledge of Allegiance

by Tom W. Bell on June 4, 2008 · Comments

The U.S. Pledge of Allegiance represents a program of sorts, one designed to run on human brains and to output obedience. Like any program, however, the Pledge can suffer from bugs and submit to hacking. I thus offer you an upgraded Pledge, v. 2008:

I pledge allegiance to the laws of the United States of America, on condition that it respect my rights, natural, constitutional, and statuory, with liberty and justice for all.

  • I pledge allegiance to the Constitution of the United States of America, and the republic that it established. One nation, out of many peoples, with liberty and justice for all.

    I think that's even better.
