How does reciting a pledge of allegiance change anything? At a certain point it loses it meaning and just becomes something you have to do, but that in no way changes the love that you have for your country. Instead of trivial things like this, I want all branches of government to address real issues which effect American citizens. There are lots of things Biden has done and will do that has angered me. This isn't one of those things.

The pledge adds solemnity and purpose to the beginning any meeting, whether a high school class or a city council meeting or a congressional committee.
