After I saw this can, I don't have a problem with what Dr. Pepper did. I don't consider them anti-religion or anti-God. Now, if they had published all of the pledge except the words "under God", there would be an argument. But just to say we as a nation are "indivisible", I'm fine with that.Precisely. I know a LITTLE bit about marketing, and would venture to say that THIS beverage can:
would not stand out on a crowded supermaket shelf as well - and PERHAPS, as a result, not SELL as well - as THIS one:Dr Pepper I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
from Stephen Wooding:
"Did you ever notice that lots of drinks have the title Dr.?
Many of these are ripoffs of Dr Pepper, and I collect them."
But that is just one dog's opinion. ;)
