What do we honor the america flag for

1. We stand for the flag today, not to please ourselves but to honor those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.

2. We stand for the flag not to focus on what divides us but on what unites us, which is being an American.

3. We stand for the flag not to pledge allegiance to a president, but to honor the reality that we have an elected president and not a lifetime king.

4. We stand not because of past or present pain caused by injustice, but to salute the principle of justice.

5. We stand for the flag not for our generation but to set an example for the next generation.
