This is something that has always bothered me. We are taught to recite this from kindergarten, and most never leave that idea of phrasing, even though we should grow out of the 2 and 3 word phrases and recite as though we know and understand what we're talking about. Here's how I see it!
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.
It truly is two distinct thoughts, with a few inferences. Here's the inferred parts in [ ]
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and [also] to the Republic for which it stands.
[we are, or it is] One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

Any changes to the the pledge of allegiance would have to go through Congress. So, I suppose you could submit your revisions to them.
If you are just doing it for fun though, this is the current text of the pledge:
"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."
You could rewrite it with whatever changes you think are appropriate. Just brainstorm about what parts you like and what parts you don't like, then write the parts you like down. See if there are any other things you want to add, that you think everyone in the nation should agree to, and put those in too. Make sure it sounds good and is short enough to say before a meeting or a class, and you're good to go.
