Newly-elected Miami-Dade Commissioner Sabine Covo, who Florida Democrats have praised as being not only the future of their political party but as the first win for them in taking back the state, does not know the Pledge of Allegiance.
During a March 9 County Commission meeting, Commissioner Covo was asked to recite the Pledge.
"Commissioner Covo, could you lead us in the Pledge of Allegiance, please," asked someone within the Commission
"You don't know it? Ok," responded the same official to Covo, who could not be heard to answer the first question about reciting the Pledge.
Activist and lobbyist Christian Camara share the video of the embarrassing moment on social media.
Let's help Commissioner Covo.
"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."
