Miami City Commissioner Sabina Covo, a Democrat, elected to the commission in a February 27 special election, was asked to lead the Pledge of Allegiance. The problem is, she doesn’t know it.

It doesn’t sound like she’s an American.

Get over yourself.

If you don’t like what someone posts just don’t read it. I see duplicate posts all of the time. And getting snarky because someone missed or misspelled a word is kind of meaningless.

The Book List sez that “John Adams-McCullough (Finished) “ twice. .

So even the perfect aren’t.

"She has spent her career holding the powerful and corrupt accountable....A former Director in the state’s Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services"

You would think that those meetings would have had the pledge recited and she would have picked it up.

How can you be a DEMOCRAT and claim to "hold the powerful and corrupt accountable"? That would take multiple lifetimes.

Based on her LinkedIn profile, she was born about 1980 moved to the USA from Colombia in 2014 at the age of 34. So she didn't learn the Pledge of Allegiance in Colombia. Based on that and we can cut the young mom some slack...

Obviously not a Republican. At all our meetings we start off with the Pledge of Allegiance. I’m in Texas, but I think Florida Republicans probably do the same.

“Didn’t recall the words?”....

Or, being a Democrat, choked on them and couldn’t utter them?

Pretty young woman.

Does she need brains? Can a plastic surgeon implant them?

Is that how you make yourself feel superior - slam a story because you already saw it?
