Perhaps you should re-familiarize yourself with the Pledge of Allegiance.

Ironic you bring that up, because there was a time in America where the Supreme Court had ruled that children could be forced to recite it.
Can you be more specific? Do you mean the history or the content?
"With _liberty_ and justice for all"? This should be pretty bipartisan IMO.
I’m still not sure what you mean. Do you mean that Bezos’ definition of Liberty aligns with the pledge of allegiance?
Of course you aren't. But if you weren't deliberately dense, you'd see that Bezos didn't give a definition of personal liberty. He just told them that it matters, and they should write about it every now and then. One would think that in the US writing about personal liberty would not raise any controversy, but here we are.
Say more?
