The "God Bless the USA" bible is the British KJV translation?

KJV, and American Standard of 1901, are superior. NKJV runs a close 2nd

I wonder if this Bible was put together by King James Only-ists who believe the KJV is the perfectly preserved word of God over and against all other translations.
ETA: I take that back. It was probably using the KJV because of royalty concerns. Other modern translations have copyrights that require royalties to be given for their use.

You do know who King James of the KJV Bible is, right? The British King? Who had the Bible translated into English for the common man.
Its not a shocking! revelation to anyone but you, I guess

I get what you’re saying, God would likely not bless America unless it were written in American

That American language has always been far superior than any other language out there.
My biggest class load at LSU when I was getting my Bachelor of Arts in American was the semester I took
American
American Grammar
ENGL 2000: American Composition

Haven’t you heard the news? Our dear leader dictator Donald J. Trump wrote this entire version of his Bible while vacationing on the beach one day in Florida

It's not just translations. Some books were completely thrown out before King James. They didn't meet the standards of The Bureau of the Word of God.

KJV is in the public domain with no copyright restrictions in the US. It means more profit to the seller without having to pay for licensing.

dang I was hoping it would be a translation from Trump. i.e. God to Noah (that puny man) go to build a yuge arc. God made it rain like a South Florida hurricane.
The wicked democrats sorry Canaanites
Probably used due to copyright issues but KJV is still very very popular among protestants
