Onderwerp: They want to please the people who want to change America and what it originally stood for.

Tuesday: Well, not really. The words "under God" weren't added to the Pledge until 1954 during the communism scare. Some of our founding fathers warned of the danger of using religion to govern. Just because the majority of Americans believe in some sort of God doesn't mean that upholding the separation of church and state is changing what America originally stood for. Just the opposite, actually, no matter who tries to rewrite history and deny the Constitution. That said, editing the broadcast was silly.

P.S. I have a degree in English and I think starting sentences with conjunctions and ending sentences with prepositions are wonderful practices. :)
