A
Political Affirmation
As an elected or
appointed official in local, state or federal government, or as a
candidate for the same, I affirm the
following:
1. The unalienable
rights of life, liberty, property and the pursuit of happiness for
all persons as outlined
in the Declaration of Independence and the Fifth and Fourteenth
Amendments to the U.S. Constitution;
2. That the source
for unalienable rights is rooted in the nature of the Creator, the
God of the Bible;
3. That my service
in government only has just power according to Athe
consent of the governed@;
4. That the First
Amendment begins with religious liberty, and that without religious
liberty, the freedoms
of speech, press, assembly and redress of grievances are moot; thus,
it is the first freedom, and
as such I celebrate the freedom for all law abiding citizens to
participate in the democratic process
according to their express beliefs, religious or otherwise;
5. That the quality
of trust is the essential glue for a civil society, and that trust
is best learned in the intrinsic
nature of heterosexual faithful monogamous marriage and parenting;
6. That public
servants should be held to the highest standards of what society
aspires to; thus, I also affirm
the need to be honest in all my dealings, personal or public.
