<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Well, Donovan, I would remind you that your
original statement was that the words, "under God," had been in the Pledge for a
longer period than it had existed without them. That is simply not true,
no matter how you arrange the data. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Well,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I for one, think the 54 years as version 3 is longer than version 2 or 1
which each lasted only 31 years. Version 3, is the longest lasting
version.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>19 million Americans, out of 300 million, is a small number. Changing
would hinder more that than help. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>As for the primaries, Good! Great! You cut in line, your vote doesn't
count. Maybe next time they will follow the rules. This is pretty bad for
Hillary too, isn't it. Look forward to Hillary making this this biggest issue
of the 2008. And Florida, isn't it ever going to learn how to vote? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Best Regards,</DIV>
