You just can't make this stuff up. After watching the story, what is your reaction? Again like the former Marine who gets banned from his daughter's High School, we seem to be seeing a very aggressive attitude against American Exceptionalism and this is supported by President Obama.
What are your feelings about this and what would be your response?

Absolutely not.
In some states Its hard enough to keep our own pledge around in schools. Why on earth would we say another counties pledge of ALLEGIANCE. Are you saying that this is really happening? I am really loosing all hope in this country. I should move to England, at least the British still respect their queen and don't say something like "god save the sultan" if a school has a high population of Indonesians.
God help America. (I better watch out I can't really say god anymore either)

I don't see other countries reciting the pledge of allegiance to the United States of America. So why should Americans do the same. A pledge of allegiance should be taken more seriously than mundan words spoken every day in our schools across America.

Not only do I say NO! It's Hell NO! Texas is part of the United States of America so the only pledge they should be reciting is the pledge to the U.S.A. like I did when I was a child and still do to this day.

As an American citizen, as a veteran, as a Texan and as the parent of 2 children I say hell no. Standing and pledging allegiance to another countries flag while on U.S. soil is treason, don't give a crap what any school district says.
If school districts want to give a written document of another countries pledge and then compare/contrast to our pledge that's fine, that's a valid study of history. But to force/require students to pledge to another country is unacceptable.

Absolutely NOT. A totally unacceptable proposal, it is treasonous. The individuals who proposed this should be denuded of their US citizenship and deported to Mexico, where they can give the Mexican version of the Pledge of Allegiance to their heart's content.

Cpl Fernandez has also made a valid recommendation with regard to other issues, but in this particular situation, it is not a question of choice. Mexico is Mexico, Texas is part of the UNITED STATES and has been for over a century. It was never really Mexican anyway, the Comanche owned it, if anyone did. This should not even be up for discussion. The idea is fundamentally wrong.

Why are we even asking this question? We live in America, where we are apparently not even supposed to say the American Pledge of Allegiance because it says "God" in it, but we are being asked to say another countries Pledge?

I am still tryint to figure out why the students have to pledge allegence to Texas. Is it a dfferent country?
I guess, in the eyes of Texas, the United States is not "indivisable".

Vermont was its own country too, but when it joined the U.S. It ceased to be one. That's what happened to Texas too. So they should not have a pledge separate from the American pledge.
Come to think of it, there were quite a few states south of the Mason-Dixon Line that were their own country too. Don't believe anyone is required to say a pledge to any of them separate from the pledge to the U.S.
