I believe in the United States of America as a government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from

the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign Nation of many sovereign States; a perfect union, one and inseparable;
established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice, and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.
I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws; to respect its flag: and to defend it
against all enemies.
(from The Book of the American's Creed by William Tyler Page)
