Here’s a clip from Red Skelton’s 1969 TV show where he conveys the true meaning of the Pledge of Allegiance and prophetically laments its unexcusable demise as a daily mainstay in the American public school regimen…

Well the progressives are going for it and they are going to use our children, rapidly becoming the largest demographic in the country, to do it. Our liberally progressive national education system has significantly influenced this over the past 40 years and now prominent progressives are exploiting the very youth that they have infiltrated with their anti-American rabble.
Please take the time to listen to the 4:44 minute video located at the link below. You’re going to hear all the fancy buzz words bandied about that progressives just love; words like “just”, “sustainable”, “change”, “birthright”, “inheritance”, “disparity”, “diversity”, “preservation”, etc.
What most of our youth doesn’t realize, by no necessary fault of their own, because of their filtered education, is that America is exceptional among all others that have ever existed on Earth. This exceptionalism is, however, being threatened and intentionally marginalized by the very progressives that they prop up with talk about American arrogance; distress with economic, nutrition, heathcare and education disparity among peoples; and global initiatives to “solve” all of these “problems”. The basic premise of their belief is to solve problems from the top down instead of the bottom up and rely upon others (government) to provide to them that to which they are entitled by birthright. This flies in the face of the small government, personal responsibility, power in the hands of the individual mentality instilled by the U.S. Constitution. Unfortunately, due to our tainted public education system, most of our youth doesn’t know anything about this foundational document or they have been led to believe that it is an outdated concept. Our departure from our founding roots, policies of which the progressives in this country have been embracing and instituting for the past 100 years, is the true origin of the “problems” that are touted in this video.
Here’s a link to the Generation-We site and video, which, after viewing, I’m most interested in your comments…
