Yes, it should definitely be brought back and children should be required to recite it every morning in school, regardless of religion. It is bad enough that bleeding heart liberals finally got prayer out of school, the pledge has nothing to do with religion and should never have been removed from schools or public gatherings. One of my fondest memories of my school days was my 1st grade teacher leading us in The Lord's Prayer and the Pledge of Allegiance every morning before we began our lessons. It led to history lessons and learning what it meant to be proud to be an American. Thanks, Miss Edmonds, where ever you are!
