I'm going to go with "indivisible", since that's the only word that's by itself. Also, what is a pet buzzard?
I think that was "under God". If you watch the movie The Bells of St Mary's, they say it without them! At a Catholic school, no less!
Looking back, I clearly misread the question. I thought you said what word, not what words! I'm going to defer to Kim's answer on this one, since she can read.
And you're right! It's "under God"! I had no idea that was actually added later.
Laine, "indivisible" is not a bad guess: I've always thought that the cadence of the POA does make that part seem awfully strange.
Kim, you'd think the Catholics would have added it themselves long before the US government! :)
