EVERYONE who takes an oath should UPHOLD THAT OATH. I love how these people play free & loose with duties. If you don't agree with the oath then stay out of office!!!!!!!!!! Or move to another country

As a retired US Navy veteran I have taken a very similar oath more than once. The main difference between the oath I and all members of the US military takes is the phrase "I will obey the orders of the officers and men appointed over me." Obama has clearly not defended the Constitution as he swore to do. In fact he has endeavored to undermine or outright disregard the Constitution and the Supreme Court rulings which go against the Socialist agenda his Administration is pursuing with great vigor.

When I joined the United States Air Force a long time ago I swore an oath to defend our country against enemies foreign and domestic. I have tried

to keep that oath even after being discharged. I have voted for the best canidates possible, have written articles expressing my opinions and have done what I can to support what the Constitution represents. I have joined the tea party and am a follower of the Libertarian cause and a member of the Republican Party.

We need to get back to the original standards of what our country was founded on, the Constitution, Bill of Rights, etc. and the federal government to abide by it and get their nose out of business of the states that is not their business. This is as nice as I can say it. I'm tired of my liberties being taken away from me and my money being stolen by the government.

If you take an oath in court and lie, and are caught, you go to jail.

Anyone who fails to honor an oath of office should at least be removed from that office and lose all accrued benefits, if not jailed for malfeasance in office.

Do we need a Constitutional amendment to spell this out clearly?

IF the people do not have "standing", then neither does the 'judge' that would deny the RIGHTS of the PEOPLE.

Under the Constitution, the PEOPLE are SOVEREIGNS which place the PEOPLE above the government, for the government is merely a tool of the PEOPLE to provide infrastructure to the PEOPLE.

The government is not an entity unto itself.

And Neither are the "SERVANTS" that are employed to SERVE THE NEEDS of the PEOPLE.

An OATH is a viable contract that can be enforced.

I am in favor of a simple, one line amendment to every State Constitution: "Neither legislated law, nor judicial fiat shall ever supersede CONSTITUTIONAL LAW".

Thank you for your support of the constitution and the rule of law!!!!

We the people of the south fought a war 150 years ago at the start of this mess and after all that has happened it is just getting worse at the cost of 625,00 fellow americans lives.

I took an oath when I enlisted in the United States Marine Corps. I have not served since 1951 however my oath is still active and has not been revoked.

It is about time!

What took you so long?

There are other organizations that need to join this immediately too.

As some have already stated, those of us that wore or are presently wearing the uniform of one of great armed services take the oath to defend and support the constitution freely and without reservation. I took that oath first in 1972 and renewed it four or five times during my career of 31 years, we have to defend those who are to weak to defend themselves, unfortunately, little did we know what a "milktoast" we would have in the white house.

I have made an oath when entering the Army and a few other times in the US.

If there is a questions about support of our Constitution or the US of America then maybe you should find a new place to reside that is suitable.

I will support our Bill of Rights and the 2nd gives me the right to protect the above.

God Bless America, our military and the Constitution of this great land!

Upon joining the United States Air Force in December of 1961, I swore a sacred oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic. I happily repeted that oath each four years, through a twenty year career. I maintain that the very same oath guides me through my daily life today.

As a 20 year veteran of the USAF I took the oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic....

I am appalled today that we have people in our Congress who are not abiding by the Oath! And evey one of them took it freely but today there is a tremendous lack of integrity, from the Executive Branch and throughout all government agencies!

GOD bless America...HE will...America, bless GOD!

I would to say thank you for taking up the battle to bring our government with the money hungry politicians, back to reality. I hope all Americans see the enormous tasking that have taken on. God speed, bring them to their knees!

I took an oath when I entered the U.S. Army to defend our Constitution against all enemies both foreign and domestic. I get the foreign part, but never have I seen such a bold and calculated attempt to do end runs around our Constitution by legislative means by our present congress and president.

This in my mind constitutes a breach of trust between those individuals and the American people. An abusive misuse of power that has crossed the borders of decency and finds them in contempt of this country's laws.

I fully agree with this. Few if any of our elected officials are living by their oaths, and some of them never intended it to be anything but empty syllables.

That said, I just wanted to let the Patriot Post know that the link to signing the oath didn't work in the email sent me. Luckily, holding the mouse over the banner told me the website so I could get there and sign.

Thank you for your efforts.

I believe we should replace every politician and bureaucrat who ignores our Constitution and Bill of Rights and who resorts to legislative trade-offs. This is the only way to restore the good ole' USA.

Regarding your question: "Have you ever taken an oath", Yes. The first time was when I pledged to marry! Other than that, in a court of law & prior to being questioned for depositions. It's a pretty sobering experience on all counts.

As an aside, some people retain oaths and some do not. It's very odious when oaths are broken!!!

The Oath to office either means what it say or it means nothing at all!

In the past I have said, The Tenth Amendment may be the only way to save our nation. A group of several States should get together... Filing suit against The Federal Government of The American Empire for blatant disregard to and violation of the U S Constitution's Tenth Amendment. Obviously, a suit of this nature would end up in The Supreme Court...

It appears Mark Alexander and The Patriot Post will take on the burden of goint to bat for our Nation's Constitution which State and Federal Officials have turned their backs to!

What the BHO Regime cannot legislate they WILL Regulate or rule by Executive Decree.

Under this Regime the ALL departments in the Federal Government exceeds what is authorized by our Constitution. Therefore, it IS an illegal government!

However, we have an Executive Branch, Legislative Branch, Judicial Branch, Bureaucrats and a Military who ALL take an oath to uphold our Nation's Constitution... yet NOT ONE OF THESE INDIVIDUALS WILL STAND UP TO STOP THIS ABUSE!

Our Constitution either means what it says or it does not mean anything at all!

Obviously, those in the Senate and House chose to do nothing! They have turned over their job of governing to the BHO Regime and the un-elected bureaucrats appointed by the BHO Regime and Federal Civil Service workers in the governments various departments!

Our nation was formed by individuals who put all on the line because of abuse from King George III and among other things “Taxation without Representation”. Well folks, under the BHO Regime we are experiencing “Regulation and Executive Decree without Representation”!

When you realize BHO is out to destroy Capitalist America; everything his Regime has done and is going to do makes sense!

I've taken several oaths in my life and have always been held accountable for them. It is way past time that politicians in Washington and elseware do the same. If "We the People" do not have standing then just who does?

Leave the Constitution alone.

It is just fine as it is.

I have forwarded this to The Oathkeepers.

We have all taken the oath, through either military or police service and have renewed our oath to defend The COnstitution against ALL enemies and refuse, openly, to follow unconstitutional orders.

Our next step is to organize the Constitutional Army to ensure the Constitution is followed, through civil law means as this, to begin with.

may we suggest a TAX REVOLT..

Do the members of Congress and the president understand where the budget money comes from, and h how much ??

TAX REVOLT - cut off the INCOME, FUNDING. Change your IRS ( and state ! ) deductions to 20, put YOUR tax dollars in YOUR SAVINGS til you have to pay NEXT YEAR !

IRS.GOV says you can !

Mark,

Have you established a legal fund so those who are interested can contribute for this noble and necessary cause?

I for one would like to see a separate fund for this fight other than the general fund the Patriot Post operates with.

If there is anything other than spread the word, let me know. I will do all in my power to help facilitate this endeavor that must succeed.

"Bound how and by whom?" You are right, sir, that it is to us - the citizens of this country - that they are bound.

"And with what penalty for violation?" An oath taken to God ("I...do solemnly swear...So help me God") with an intent to deceive is something that will be addressed by our Maker when this life is over. But until that time comes, with an understanding of the merits of the 2nd Amendment, we citizens have the right to bear arms (given by God Himself) to ensure that we can again replace a tyrannical government if needs be using the principles so well laid out in our Declaration of Independence.

I took the oath on Sept. 9th 1965. I salute the flag every single day and consider myself to be a loyal patriot of this great country. God Bless America and her people.

Yes, I have taken oaths in the past and do not do so lightly. As Sir Thomas Moore stated in 'A Man for All Seasons', "When a man takes an oath he is holding his own self in his hands. Like water. And if he opens his fingers then — he needn’t hope to find himself again. Some men aren’t capable of this." Well I am capable of this and I recently had the privilege to witness that I successfully passed this personal integrity on to my son as he trembled to take the same oath I had once taken years ago. He too ‘Get’s it’. Even if our Teleprompter-in-Chief and his accomplices on both sides of the aisle do not. No one forces anyone to take an oath. If one cannot live up to the oath, don’t take it and refrain from the activity that would require it. Leave positions that require integrity and honor to those that can uphold it. I dare say that if we could make that the law of the land, Washington D.C. would become a ghost town.

I just tweeted the link to the article and the link to affirm support of the class action lawsuit. I also sent it to friends and family. I love it! This is where the rubber meets the road. Either the judicial branch scorns us or it supports us based on the constitution. At least we'll know where things stand at that point.

It's a fine idea, but all three branches of government will band together to ignore, sidestep, and smother the initiative. We have a federal establishment that is totally out of voter control, and. I'm afraid, will get much worse.

FYI--On the original e-mail that was sent via Patriot Post, I clicked on the "Register YOur Support" section...but my computer would not go to the link/page. So, I pasted the web-page "www.breachofoath.com" into the browser, and it immediately went to the right page. Not sure where the problem is, but thought you should know.

Chuck Kuecker, "Do we need a Constitutional amendment to spell this out clearly?" (in regards to oaths)

You wouldn't think so, but the Federalists thought it unneccessary to provide a Bill of Rights since the Constitution enumerated powers to the federal government and any bill of rights was implied. Thanks to the Jeffersonians, we are at least protected in some way from those who tyrannize us on our behalf.

As an active duty military member, I take my Oath very seriously and find it very offensive that my "representatives" and civilian "leadership" do not do the same. If there is no legal redress for them failing to uphold their oath, what does that mean for the military oath?

Yes, as a 20 year retired Veteran, I took an oath to pretect and defend the Constitution several times, from it's enemies without and WITHIN. I have nothing but contempt for those who took a similiar oath seemingly, out of jest, and instntly forgot it.

Yes, I took an oath back in 1959 when I went into the military. I lived up to that oath to the best of my ability. I expect those Bastards in Washington to do the same. God Bless America.

I took an oath when I joined the Navy on 1/2/46 and again when I was commissioned in 2/60. My oath was to defend my country against all enemies whomsoever.

I remained in the Navy for nearly 32 years and

retired on August 31st, 1977.

I took my oaths seriously and was in combat in Korea and

Viet Nam.

Does not our military take oaths of allegiance and are then subject to military justice? Do their oaths indicate what penalties they are subject to for breach? Can any parallels be drawn between military breach and Government breach?

In any event, I certainly support the cause.

IF the people do not have "standing", then neither does the 'judge' that would deny the RIGHTS of the PEOPLE.

Under the Constitution, the PEOPLE are SOVEREIGNS which place the PEOPLE above the government, for the government is merely a tool of the PEOPLE to provide infrastructure to the PEOPLE.

The government is not an entity unto itself.

And Neither are the "SERVANTS" that are employed to SERVE THE NEEDS of the PEOPLE.

An OATH is a viable contract that can be enforced.

I am in favor of a simple, one line amendment to every State Constitution: "Neither legislated law, nor judicial fiat shall ever supersede CONSTITUTIONAL LAW".

You said it Mark! We are behind you 100%!

I agree with and support your action to see that all elected federal officials are required, under substantial penalty of law, to abide by their oath of office. I have said from day one and numerous times since then tha Obama has betrayed his oath of office egregiously and should be impeached, convicted and then jailed or executed for treason.

I took the same Oath as the Military when I bacame a deputy sheriff many years ago. I took the same oath when later I became a correctional officer also in North Carolina. It was a very serious and humbling experience both times. My ever gratitude is the people that administered "The Oath" for me.

History has shown that using the federal government's courts for a redress of grievances by said government doesn't work. Therefore, we shouldn't waste our time with federal OR state courts and go directly to our state legislatures and do something that Madison and Jefferson referred to as Nullification. I urge everyone to research the Virgina and Kentucky resolutions of 1898 and 1799:

http://www.tenthamendmentcenter.com/2010/02/10/the-untold-history-of-nullification/

Nullification is NOT about defying the federal government's powers as delegated to it by the Constitution or some neo-Confederate racist tactic (as leftists are currently arguing). Nullification is the correct and most effective remedy when the federal government steps out of its Constitutional bounds. Learn more...

Repeat offenders will be blocked.

I have seen elected politicions over the last 20 years not abide by their pledged oaths to defend the Constitution but rather to change, manipulate and revise based on their own poltical idealogy.

This is true for those that will not pass laws to defend our Country from illegal invaders, try to write new laws from the Executive office in violation of our Congressional Representives elected by the people and not represent the total population of Americans but favor their own selected groups. This even happens in our Judical Branch were the rule of Law is based on Personal poltical views instead of our actual Constitutional rights as Citizens. We are being driven by poltical dictate in current times with this ERA of Big Government writing numerous rules, regulations and huge efforts to tax successful citizens and redistribute their wealth to favored segments of the population. This has killed jobs, smothered our creativity and stopped us from using our own God Given natural resources in our Country to stimulate the economy. This coupled with outrageous spending by the Preident and his Party has crippled our people , stolen their abilty to earn money in the free market and preserve our very way of life. We are becoming weaker and more dependent on other countries to even produce our own goods. This has got to stop or America will no longer be the Country that truly defends freedom around the world and is a generator of Capital and Creativity once more. We are being driven to a Solialistic Society with this current Adminstrations goverance.

A legal foundation not created by the act of statement with the hand resting on the Holy Bible? I am no scholar, though a student of military history. More than a few have been executed for Treason; acting against the interests of the citizens of the Republic, is my understanding. That is to say, "violation of the Oath of Office." It is so in the military, and it should be so for other federal employees, including the three branches and such members. The halls of government are to be occupied by citizens, not monarchs. Subject to, and conforming to, all he duties, and rights, of all the citizens. So why is our Congress not on the same programs as the populace? Such as Social Security. Where do I sign?

I took an Oath as an Officer in the Air Force, and do intend to keep it to defend our Country.

I will not tolerate our elected officials disregarding their Oaths to support and Defend our Constitution, ALL OF IT.

I have long believed that ANY elected official who writes, enacts, votes for, or is party to, ANY legislation that that runs counter to, is in oppostion to our Constitution or proves to be Unconstitutional is automativcally guilty of breach of contract and should be removed from office immediately. No ifs, ands, or buts. Ignorance of the law is NO excuse. It is their business to KNOW the law, not dance around it.

They have violated the national public trust - and can no longer be considered honorable or trustworthy.

I belong to several Veterans Organization's and we take Our Oath Seriously Each Month at our Meetings.

I am a Marine , i Served from 1964 -1972 and was a Viet Nam Veteran and I am Proud to have Served America and Still Do with the Service Organizations I belong to and Assist Veterans .

Semper Fi

Bob Sawyer

The responsibility we as citizens have to defend our liberty and rights is as strong as any oath I took when inducted into the US Army.

Mark,

This class action is absolutely necessary and all freedom loving Americans should embrace this.

This is defiantly something our Federal and State governments as well as what has become the “Despotic Branch” should not ignore,marginalize or treat with contempt.

I've taken several oaths. As a police Officer, as a veteran, and every time I was called upon to speak the truth in a court of law. Oaths are meaningful, leagal and binding upon the actions of a U S Citizen. Actions one may take that are contrary to the oath they take are punishable by law. Elected officials especially should be held accountable to their oaths and should be made to vacate their positions if found negligent in their duty.

The simple language of the Constitution of The United States should be our guideline in EVERY CASE! It should never be watered down like the interpretation of the First Amendment which says CONGRESS SHALL MAKE NO LAW ESTABLISHING A RELIGION that has been interpreted to mean we can't even pray at public events!

The Constitution was ESTABLISHED by authority of God Himself yet our courts and the ACLU want us to deny His existance. It it ludicrus and we are allowing ourselves to be hoodwinked.

The further we get away from God and The Constitution the more we fail as a country!

In October of 1960 I took an oath to uphold protect and defend our Constitution when I joined the Army. I am still bound by that oath and I fully intent to obey my oath to death should it come to that end. I refuse to give up any rights provided by the Constitution.

Impeach we must for a better country and honest leaders.

In 1967, after graduating from college. I enlisted in the Army, went to Vietnam and served with honor. I came home to be vilified yet, subsequently determined to be a 100% disabled veteran due to my exposure to Agent Orange and a series of illnesses definitively proved to have been caused by that exposure. I held myself both responsible and accountable for my actions in accordance with the SAME oath Politicians take. I lived up to mine: WHY CAN'T THEY?

This cuts right to the core of our country's dire situation. Our Legislative, Executive and Judiciary

have all defaulted on their sworn oaths to uphold and defend the Constitution ! I pray all who love this country will support this most noble endeavor by the Patriot Post.

As an incoming midshipman to the United States Naval Academy, I took an oath to defend the Constitution of the Ubnited States of Ameriaca against all enemies, foreign and domestic. I reaffirmed that oath when I graduated and was commissioned in the US Navy. I believe the time has come to identify and stop the domestic enemies who are trying to destroy our country from within.

I think it is well past the time needed to bring this country back to the rule of law. It is time that we got back to the what our founders wanted for this country, not what our congress and president think we should have.

I took an oath when I enlisted in the Air Force, every time I re-enlisted and when I was commissioned.

It was made clear to me and, I am confident, to every other American who served in our Armed Forces that I was obligated to honor this sworn oath. It also was made clear to me that the Uniform Code of Military Justice included provisions for adjudicating failures to comply with this oath.

For more than 23 years I served under that oath and was proud to do so. It grieves me deeply to see that our elected government officials, who swear the same oath, may blatantly violate that oath with near-absolute impunity.

And a great many of our government officials continue to violate their oaths, yet enjoy lifetime pensions, tax breaks, and free medical care for life. And the only hostile force they confront is the conservative news media.

It is to weep

I have been asking for this to become a serious issue for a very long time and I support it whole-heartedly!

For far to long the Central Government has treated the Oath of Office as a mere formality to get their paycheck.

It is time they lived up to their oath, as those of us did in the Military did and still do, our Discharge from active Duty did in no way render our Oath to Defend the Country and the Constitution from enemies be they Foreign or Domestic.

I agree wholeheartedly with the effort of making our elected official accountable to both "We the people" and to our consititution. To many of our populace do not comprehend the actions of those who invoke the "living constitution" concept which makes our rule of law a rule of men and whomever is in power at the time. Well done and keep up the good work

If there is no way to hold the unfaithful to their oath, the oath is meaningless. Where there is no Consequence, there is no Law!

This concept is burned into my being as an American. It means as much today as it did when I swore to defend against ALL Enemies Foreign and DOMESTIC!

Thank you Patriot Post for fighting the good fight!

You ask if I have taken an oat, yes I have taken several. I have been a Boy Scout and as such taken an oath. I am a member of the Order of the Arrow and have taken another oath. I have taken an oath of enlistment several times. I have taken an oath upon acceptance of my appointment as a Warrant Officer, and I have taken several oaths, one each time I was commissioned as a Chief Warrant Officer. At least in the United States Marine Corps, the oath we take is taken very seriously. Each and every Marine is fully questioned beforehand to ensure they understand what the oath means, and how it applies to them. Then they willingly and without reservation or purpose of evasion, take the oath. No contract is signed or commission accepted until the oath is stated clearly with at least one witness besides the administering official.

The failure of the Obama administration to uphold the letter of the laws of the U.S. Constitution is criminal. Attorney General Holder obviously holds a similar degree of disrespect for the Constitution as Mr. Obama and both should be run out of office by the votes of an alert and informed citizenry.

I'd like to add that, in my opinion, any judge in any court in the United States who even considers applying any aspect of Sharia law in their courtroom should be removed from office and publicly scorned

When sworn into the United States Navy in 1958 I pledged to defend the US Constitution against all enemies. I do not remember my oath having an expiration date. I still hold my pledge to be valid.It is a violation of a sacred promise for anyone who has pledged to protect our constitution to now promote a"living Constitution.

I whole heartedly agree with this action and feel it is long overdue. our political system is suppossed to be of the people, by the people and for the people; not for the political expediency of those in power. Reformation is needed before revolt is forced.

I took my first oath in 1957 when I first joined the military and 4 times thereafter when I reenlisted. I have never took an oath that rescinded the original one and intend to stand by that oath until I pass.

Finally, someone who is taking steps in the right direction. You have my support 100%.

I have taken several oaths in my lifetime when in Boy Scouts , in MASONS . in Scottish Rite , and in the military . I beleive these are sacred oaths that every American who swears to them is bound to these oaths for life .

We must remove those who are not able to abide by their oath.

I am a retired sergeant major of Marines, so, yes, I took the oath to "support and defend" many times. I believe it is treason if you break that oath. From our chief executive on down they have broken their oaths of office and should be tried for treason and punished accordingly. That is what would have happened to me. Are so-called "public servants" above the law of the land? They think they are, but they are not. Sadly, they continue to break their oaths on a daily basis and nothing happens. Our country is sliding towards the abyss and soon it will be too late. Wake up America! Seller Fidelis and God bless you all.

I am glad for this statement and I back it fully.

As a local Town Council member, I took very seriously the oath I had to take and was deeply humbled by the experience. It has been very troubling to discover just how difficult fulfilling it has been--not because of my own personal disregard, but because of the demands of the infinite Federal programs, grants, regulations, and requirements. I have seen just how far we have drifted from the restraints of the enumerated powers placed on the Federal Government, and how our failure to follow the wisdom of our Constitution's structure has inflicted immense damage on our communities, our schools, our businesses, and our personal liberties.

I took an oath when I became clerical support for law enforcement back in the early 70's. We had to re-take the oath whenever there was a new Sheriff. I took that oath seriously. I still do. This is something 'We The People' should have done many years ago, but since we didn't, now is the best time! I'm with ya!!!!

The day of my enlisting in the U.S.Army,I took the Oath:To support,and Defend The Constitution,from all enemies,foreign+domestic.Sept 27,1965.

I fully support the effort being made here to make our government officials adhere to the Constitution, but I have little hope that a lawsuit will be successful, as it would be presided over by a judiciary which is itself largely responsible for our current condition. I do not believe they will relinquish their grip on the reins of power. Still, it is our duty to try.

The penalty for the violation of an oath of office should be IMMEDIATE removal and suspension of any future pay, benefits, or entitlements that may have accrued during a term of service.

Elected officials found guilty of serious crimes against the U.S. should face the death penalty as the only level of justice that is recognized as suitable for deterring the corruption of our political system.

Sadly...cynically...this goes NOWHERE, politically, judicially, or otherwise. The "oath" is an Alice in Wonderland chant; meaning only what the one taking the oath wants it to mean. I realize the action is designed to reverse that trend, but an appeal to the very Lewis Carroll characters its meant to overrule is dead on arrival.

I also took an Oath to uphold the Constitution when I was hired to teach in the Denver Public Schools 14 years ago. Shocker I know. It is no longer a requirement-surprise surprise and in any cse most of the people I teach with don't hold the Constitution as highly as I do.

I think if the 28th amendment to the constitution were upheld we would see a lot of "Rats" leaving a sinking ship. To put it a little nicer, there would be a lot less incentive to gain public office for personal gain.

I agree and indorse this requirement.

I have taken the oath several time when enlisting into the US Army, the Alabama Army National Guard and the US Navy reserves, and have faithfully kept the oaths which I took. I believe anyone who does not keep their oath to support and defend the constitution of the United Sataes should be tried and punished for the violation of their oath to the full extent of the law including facing the firing squad if the extent of their crime requires that punishment.

On their first day of office, each of our elected leaders and representatives swears allegiance to the Constitution, but for too long many have freely ignored that oath and instead worked to subvert the Constitutional limits on their actions.

While the policies of Obama and his willing minions have thrown our nation into economic chaos, they have at least hastened the day when it will no longer be possible for liberal politicians to pretend even to pay lip service to the Constitution, but will be forced to declare openly their derision for the principles that made America great.

When I served as an officer in the Navy, I too took an oath, but unlike many currently serving in government, I meant it when I swore to support and defend the Constitution. Although I am no longer in uniform, I feel that sacred charge even more keenly today.

The time is fast approaching when each American will have to make the clear choice between a further decline into Marxist feel-goodism and a restoration of limited government of, by, and for the people. When you meet with your fellow Patriots at the Tea Parties or other gatherings of like-minded conservatives, consider reciting this pledge:

"I pledge allegiance to THE CONSTITUTION of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, as originally written and ratified by our nation's founding fathers, and as legally amended by the citizens.

I solemnly swear that I will support and defend THE CONSTITUTION from all enemies, both foreign and especially domestic, that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same, and that I will endeavor to hold accountable those who would subvert or distort its meaning.

To this end I devote my life, my fortune, and my sacred honor, that the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA will forever remain one nation under God, a free people."

I took the Oath of Enlistment into the United States Army once, and repeated it 5 more times at reenlistments. I took the Oath of Office as a Texas Peace Officer. I took those Oaths freely. Although I am retired, those Oaths still guide me. Those Oaths require me to support and defend the Constitution of the United States. It is beyond my thinking why or how those that are elected or appointed to public office cannot honor their Oaths to do the same.

Part of the JAYCEE's Creed states- 'Government should be of LAWS and not of MEN'!!

I swore the oath first as a 17 year old in 1955 and again upon commissioning as a Naval Officer in 1959. I was impressed with the solemnity and the unending nature of the act, in peace or war.

I never renounced the oath and will NEVER do so. I feel as compelled now, at age 74, to comply with the oath as I did in my past. I still owe my country the allegiance and servitude the oath conveyed. Defending my country and its Constitution against enemies, foreign or domestic was my accepted mission and it still is.

I know others have served in political office that have uttered the same oath. I am deeply saddened and offended that some have elected to subordinate their oath before leaving office, let alone some who later chose to avoid adherence to their oath. Never have I heard a single renunciation of the oath by those who chose to break it, with or without purpose of evasion. I reckon such people are regardless still required to live up to their oath if they have never renounced it.

To me, it's a sacred responsibility that I will not fail to comply with. I don't expect other oath-takers to fail to live up to their oath, either.

During my nearly 26 years in the Navy, I was promoted with the advice and consent of the Senate and signed approved by the President. Each of my acceptances of promotion was accompanied by the oath of office. My adherence to the oath is my lifetime commitment.

Thankful and Proudly we stand with you 100%. May GOD Bless all efforts abundantly and richly.

I am not a former military member. I have not taken a formal oath binding under law, but I swear to everyone reading this to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States, against all enemies, foreign and domestic.

To those of you who took the oath as a member of the military, first, thank you for your service. Second, you may never have considered this, but you were not relieved of that oath at the end of your service. I write that to encourage you to continue uphold and defend the constitution.

The power to vote does NOT constitute representation. Not when my 'representative' becomes a mere lobbyist to the congressional supercommittee. Patently unconstitutional, as far as I'm concerned.

There's one thing missing. What about those who have representation without taxation? Prisoners for example. All those who pay no taxes for another. What authorizes their franchise? Let them feed from the labor of others but let them not cancel the vote of a legitimate electorate.

I took the oath when I entered into the Marine Corps, That was 63 years ago. I consider it still binding me today just as much as it did then. Nothing angers me more than congressmen, senators the President and our judiciary violating their oaths of office. For the sole purpose of justification of their agenda.

I agree and support this amendment. The Constitution Should be Upheld!

I keep looking for an Oath to reverse all the exceptions Congress has made for themselves. We all know most problems will be solved if members of Congress has the same retirement plan (SS) and health plan the average american has.

Why not address this huge issue. We are treating them like kings/queens and not saying anything is accepting it.

Thanks,

Gary

It's about time! I have long said that, with very few exceptions, every member of congress, members of SCOTUS, and indeed the president himself is not only guilty of breach of their respective oaths, but of high crimes and misdemeanors. If not accountable under the law, then their oths are meaningless.

Any person who has been elected to office in our government and doesn't up hold the constitution to the letter should be removed imidiatly.

I get a server error when I try to sign up for the class

I don't understand how Republicans could have allowed a justice to be seated (Kagan)who accepts the Constitution as it was interpreted by Thurgood Marshall rather than the original. This will have dire consequences.

But I don't see how this suit can be won. The Court will find what it will but it cannot impose fines in general but only in particular and only for those laws which are explicit, passed and signed. Still, I wish you luck to establish a standing at least or the public acknowledgement by the Court of its rejection of the peoples' standing.

The legislative action is the obvious one though the most difficult to achieve given the crop for whom the American public rightly approves of by about 20%. But who knows. Embarrassment might work where nothing else will.

An Oath is a promise to keep viable the pledge or vow taken. If a person does not understand that this obligates him/her to obide by that promise and that it is in direct relation to their honor, then that person shold be held accountable.

So, I agree TOTALLY that there has been a breach of oath.

My QUESTIONS are these: Since there is an obvious conflict of interest involving the very judicial branch that is named in the law suit, WHO has jurisdiction over this kind of civil action? How does it get reviewed and how do we get an impartial judgment? And how do we get whatever judgment applied/executed, since the Executive Branch is also part of the suit and therefore faces a similar conflict of interest?

Or perhaps a more pertinent question: How do we convince all the Progressive citizens (who are so ardently opposed to following the Constitution) that we would all be better off if we would just return to a Constitutional Republic? I don't find that reason goes very far with them, and that they feel it is a MORAL obligation to become Socialist.

As a retired sailor I have sworn an oath each time I re-enlisted. I was bound by the UCMJ then as active duty, as I remain yet today as a retired service member. If it is good for those of us who venture into harm's way on service to our Nation, likewise should our representatives, who live a safe comfortable life be accountable for their oath of Office.

When there is an oath taken and they donot stick to the oath, they shouldbe floged.

I've taken 6 oaths in my lifetime. Five of those were for my military service. The 6th was to my wife and God. After 43 years, I'm still honoring that last one. As for the oath to support and defend the Constitution, I do what I can.

I hope enough support is raised such that the media will not be allowed to "non-report" this event.

I first took the Oath of Office upon entering the US Naval Academy in 1964. I repeated that on the occasion of every promotion I received as a commissioned officer in the US Marine Corps. I again took that Oath upon entering service with the Dept. of Homelenad Security/TSA in Dec. 2009.

On each occasion I took that Oath as a solemn vow to serve and protect my country from all enemies, foreign and domestic, and will do so until I take my last breath.

Those who are elected/appointed to serve our country at the federal and state level, in particular, must be held accountable to the same high standard. If not, the Oath has no meaning and is just another "pro forma" ritual those officials must endure to do their own bidding. It's high time they are made accountable to the citizens who elect them, not the other way around.

When I enlisted in 1959 and every time I re-enlisted I took the oath and felt proud that I could. To enlist and willing take the oath, was asserting my right to serve.

I received an e-mail today saying that Obama has enacted the Dream Act by executive order, during Hurricane Irene. Any truth to this?

I took an oath when I enlisted in the Air Force, every time I re-enlisted and when I was commissioned.

It was made clear to me and, I am confident, to every other American who served in our Armed Forces that I was obligated to honor this sworn oath. It also was made clear to me that the Uniform Code of Military Justice included provisions for adjudicating failures to comply with this oath.

For more than 23 years I served under that oath and was proud to do so. It grieves me deeply to see that our elected government officials, who swear the same oath, may blatantly violate that oath with near-absolute impunity.

And a great many of our government officials continue to violate their oaths, yet enjoy lifetime pensions, tax breaks, and free medical care for life. And the only hostile force they confront is the conservative news media.

It is to weep

The Oath is a solemn promise to uphold the law as stated int eh Constitution of this country. Violation of the Oath of office/service is a form of treason as it breaks your allegiance to this republic.

@ Robert McBride: You may be interested to read the oaths that military folk take. (And you're right: there is no end date on that oath.) :) The oath for officers differs from that of enlisted. You can read ALL federal oaths here:

http://www.conservativeusa.org/oathsofoffice.htm

Pay particular attention to what the Enlisted have to add that is not included in the Officers' oath.

There is a conflict of oath involved if the Commander in Chief is acting contrary to the Constitution.

Interesting to note also, that ALL Federal Employees should have taken a similar oath...I wonder if that is still administered??

Where do we find men or women of pure virtue to decide if a person has not lived up to the oath?

June 17, 1972. I took the Oath on induction into the Army and have never renounced it. If called upon to honor it in concrete ways, I would certainly do my best.

It probably doesn't hurt that I have continued to hone my marksmanship over the years....

I'M WHOLEHEARTEDLY FOR YOUR STANCE AS A PATRIOT BUT AS A RESULT BEING MORE THAN AN ARMCHAIR PATRIOT, LETS JUST SAY I HAD ENCOUNTERED UNFORESEEN CONSEQUENCES SO UNFORTUNATELY TODAY I AM JUST AN ARMCHAIR PATRIOT. GOD,RACE,HOMELAND

When we make a solem oath to protect and defend the United States and the constitution against ALL ENEMIES, we have tasken an oath to protect the "Public Trust" and I believe that is the most serious oath a man can give. Violation of the "Public Trust should come only with the MOST SEVERE PENALTIES. God has entrusted men to defend HIS principles of justice and violation of our oath to the public is also a rebuke against GOD.lET US ALL FALL ON OUR KNEES AND ASK him TO HEAL OUR lAND.

My first oath was The Pledge of Allegiance. My second was when I was sworn in at the Naval Academy. Both of those are as valids troday as they were then. It's time our politicians realize everything they do is worthless is they don't keep their oaths.

I swore in 1970, '75, '85, '94, 2005 and 2009 to support and defend the Constitution of the United States... so help me God! The illegal acts of those who employ me are many echelons above me, far above my paygrade. I do what I can in my small sphere of influence.

This allows me to join thousands of others. In unity, our voice is harder to ignore.

Mark, you are taking point. We will cover you.

Trust in God and keep your powder dry!

I have taken the Oath at my commissioning as an Army officer. It was not spoken lightly - it was backed up by the pledge of my life, if necessary.

You cannot be an officer without the oath, and therefore it is necessary. Since it is clearly more than a pro forma excercise, it must be enforceable.

The Founders thought the Oath imposed a solemn obligation of the highest order on holders of positions of public trust- we should not do any less.

I first took the oath when I entered the USAF in 1957. I reaffirmed my oath when I received my copy of Essential Liberty in 2010.

I regard the Pledge of Allegiance as an oath, and I swore that every day at school until I was out of high school. While I was never in the military, I have taken oaths before. Admittedly, my oath of fealty to my knight and my oath of fealty to the crown as a peer in my own right are in a medieval organization that is really a game, but I still regard those two oaths as my word, and I have always regarded my word as my bond, something to not take lightly, and definitely not something to be broken.

This would be so much more believable if you had raised a comparable effort against the violations of Bush/Cheney. Instead you supported their re-election. It seems you only see violations of the Constitution when you want to do so.

I took my oath when I went into the United States Air Force and was proud to do so at the time and am just as proud of it today and if I could I would do it all over again but after having served over twenty years and of course to old today but we have the Greatest Country in the world and its a shame what is taking place here now .

Actually I thought they did take an oath to that extent. I see no reason why an oath is not required for every elected office and perhaps for other operational offices also. The words may be discussed but that is about the only area of issue. Breaking an oath should be a felony.

I did not see any place to support the Oath Accountability Civil Action.

1985

I, ..., do solemnly swear to support and defend the constitution of the United States of America, against all enemies, foreign AND domestic...

Funny thing, I have never been released from that oath.

The oath. Just read the black parts. It does not take a mental giant to understand it. Anyone that takes 'the oath' and does not live it should be branded a traitor and treated as such under the crimal codes.

Every ex and retired military person accepted our oath and our elected officials should do the same. But, with the three branches, there seems to be a few things missing such as INTEGRITY, ETHICAL CONDUCT and HONESTY.

Funny how most of can end up in jail failing any of those qualities.

Start at the top and let's work our way down on this.

An oath taken is intended to be an oath kept, a responsibility to act in good faith.

Taking the oath in equivocation or by mental evasion is criminal. Doing so, should be punished severely.

To act otherwise diminishes the purpose of the oath and the very Constitution sworn to be protected.

re Oath Accountability Civil Action

I assume that the white on blue banners (2) are the areas to click to register to join you in this pursuit. Just FYI, they aren't working for me, so I would assume that this may also be an issue for others. This is a great idea, and I'd very much want to join with you. Please advise.

Thank you, and thanks for all you do.

Yes, my oath is half a century old, but it is still operative.

A "living Constitution" is the outcome (intended) of lawyerly meddling that arose when case law and playing precedents was substituted (unlawfully) for the very clear contract law under which the Constitution was constructed. Time to reverse that. A good place to start would be the wholesale repeal of the entire Code of Federal Regulations.

For the past few years, certain Peoples have referred to " lies, and also violations by Bush and Cheney ", but they never expand on the "violations or lies" ! I would like to see some of the infractions in writing. I must have been asleep for the duration! I cannot recall any "blatant" lie or misdeed from either of the two for-mentioned Gentlemen.! The accusers never seem to recollect any adverse comments or deeds coming from "across the aisle" ! It is only the "right" that sins.!!

I wrote my first Grassroots Commentary, An Enemy Within. Fits right into this court action Patiot Post is doing.

I took the oath that all solders take, to support and protect the Consiturion from all enemies foriegn and domestic.

I should like to register my support for this civil action, but you don't make it easy. How do I do it?

The constitution applies to all citizens of the United States, especially those who are elected to office and take an oath to uphold the constitution.

I have taken the same basic oath as poloticians each time I was promoted and I have administered that oath to others during 25 years of military service.

An oath is a promise.......and promises should be

kept!

When ever one feels alone or a member of a small minority that is so very concerned about the path our country is going, one only has to turn to the Patriot Post and see that one is not alone at all.

And wonderful comments as those I have just read boosts my resolve. May we be victorious for our country and our descendants who depend upon us.

Like Mr. Zents, above, I too took an oath upon entry into the military, Navy, of our country. I would also be interested in supporting the cause you have espoused. Also like Mr. Zents, you don't make it easy. How do I show my register my support?

Interesting, worthy of merit and consideration. Please show us the actual filed court documents. I am not trying to invalidate, I've learned what one may percieved and what the documents actually say or can be twisted to say are variables of concern.

Like Mr. Zents, above, I too took an oath upon entry into the military, Navy, of our country. I would also be interested in supporting the cause you have espoused. Also like Mr. Zents, you don't make it easy. How do I show my register my support?

I believe the oath ends with "So Help Me God."

There is an awful spiritual penalty for violating that oath. But for those who do not fear eternal damnation, it seems appropriate that all oath takers are subject to at least a criminal if not treason conviction.

I do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties...So help me God.

It is the duty of ALL Americans to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America! We must renounce those who violate their oaths.

While I'm not optimistic that this initiative will prove to be successful, I fully support your objective. It is long overdue.

BTW, I am getting an internal server error when I try to access the site www.BreachofOath.com.

Each of us in order to live lives of integrity need to stand by what we promise. When we vote people into office and they take an oath to the constitution and the American people they are REQUIRED to live by that oath or be removed. It is time for us to as a country to require that our government officials who swore to represent this great nation are held accountable for doing just that. Count me All IN!!

HAVE TRIED SEVERAL WAYS TO OPEN LINK TO SIGN THE OATH ACCOUNTABILITY CIVIL ACTION EFFORT. CAN NOT SUBMIT MY SUPPORT.

COULD THIS BE BLOCKED BY YAHOO?

In the 60's I was a police officer. This was before MLK and the civil rights movement. I took a oath of office and was not happy to find that un-official policy was VERY much against protecting certain citizens according to the Constitution.

It was troubling to me that people were treated in a way that ignored the Constitution and the oath I took. I objected to violent abuse of poor people of various minorities.

I was not an activist. However, I returned to sales as an occupation. I am still proud to have served as a police officer. But an oath is sacred.

Article 1,section 8 of the Constitution has mostly been delegated away from Congress. They need to be required to take back the duties designated by this article. Allowing private banks to control the money supply is debaseing the value of our money and borrowing also controlled by these same bankers is unconstitutional.Federal researve NOTES are almost the same as Counterfeiting since congress does not control the value of these notes.

When I gave my oath of enlistment in the USN in 1975 I understood then that the oath I freely gave was for life irrespective of any term of service.

We ALL at that time were taught and expected to balance any and all orders given and actions taken against that solemn oath that was taken.

The members and veterans of US Military and all public servants in this country are unique in the matter that our oaths are to the Constitution and the principles enshrined in the Constitution itself and not to the President or a Government.

We DO NOT swear an OATH to a KING.

Our primary Oath is to THE CONSTITUTION!!!!!

I KEEP MY OATHS, wastes of human skin do not.

I want to support the class action suit, but am frankly confused. Does this comment show such support? Other readers have given dates when oaths

were taken to defend the Constitution, etc. My first oath was made on Thursday, August 12, 1948 when I was sworn into the U. S. Navy. I have pledged many, many times my allegiance to the flag of the United States of America. I am a true patriot and am disgusted with the present administration and many senators and representatives of both parties in their seemingly lack of allegiance to their oath of office. To those who swore with their right hand on the Holy Bible, GOD will not be fooled by the spin these will try to justify their actions. DO NOT BE DECEIVED: We will each give an account of things done in the flesh when we stand before Him one day.

How much longer will GOD withhold His wrath on this blessed nation?

The biggest issue is what do we do with all of the Senators and Congressmen that do not enforce our laws and uphold the constitution? We need to impeach all of them. Sounds like a total revolution to me...

I support fully this proposed action to restore the integrity of our Constitution and the enumerated limitations it places on the activities of the federal government and those elected to legislate and administer its various functions. I believe that the members of the Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches, past and present, have largely ignored their oaths and believe instead that are above the law. We have in this country a political class that reeks of elitism and privilege. They need to be held accountable to the people.

I support the Constitution of the United States & I will hold my elected officals to do the same & if they do otherwiseI will work to remove them from office.

When we elect people to represent us, we have the right to expect that they will work for the common good. We expect them to promote peace and prosperity in our country. We expect them to be honorable and to uphold the constitution which they pledge to uphold. We do NOT expect them to sell our inheritance to foreign interests whose goals are very different from ours. We need to work together to make sure we have the best representation and to make certain that they do what they pledged to do. If they do not, we need to vote them out, no matter how charismatic they may be, or how much "pork" they have secured for the "folks back home". Stand firm. Do not sell out!

may we suggest a TAX REVOLT..

Do the members of Congress and the president understand where the budget money comes from, and how much ??

TAX REVOLT - cut off the INCOME, FUNDING. Change your IRS ( and state ! ) deductions to 20, put YOUR tax dollars in YOUR SAVINGS til you have to pay NEXT YEAR !

IRS.GOV says you can !

I believe each of the 3 branches of government have all violated their oath of office.

One that grates my soul is the "separation of church and state". The Jefferson letter to Danby Baptists, the Federalist papers and the other writings by the founders, who sacrificed everything, make it very clear, even to the ignorant, that America is a Judeo-Christion nation. It was also verified by their actions to the Indian nations, the printing of Bibles by Congressional press and the services held in the white house and later the house of representatives. And intelligent men and women have chosen their own agenda over the founders intent to the destruction of America.

There are others, but I want this short.

So lets press forward and make it right.

Michael Kisman

U.S. Air Force Academy

The Cadet Honor Code at the Air Force Academy is the cornerstone of a cadet's professional training and development — the minimum standard of ethical conduct that cadets expect of themselves and their fellow cadets. Air Force's honor code was developed and adopted by the Class of 1959, the first class to graduate from the Academy, and has been handed down to every subsequent class. The code adopted was based largely on West Point's Honor Code.

We will not lie, steal, or cheat, nor tolerate among us anyone who does.

In 1984, the Cadet Wing voted to add an "Honor Oath," which was to be taken by all cadets. The oath is administered to fourth class cadets (freshmen) when they are formally accepted into the Wing at the conclusion of Basic Cadet Training.[6] The oath remains unchanged since its adoption in 1984, and consists of a statement of the code, followed by a resolution to live honorably:

We will not lie, steal or cheat, nor tolerate among us anyone who does.

Furthermore, I resolve to do my duty and to live honorably, so help me God.

Cadets are considered the "guardians and stewards" of the Code.

We want our country back.

Live Free or Die!

I took an oath to uphold and protect our constitution when I entered the USN, for 20 years.

I will continue to protect this country's rights to its oonstitutional values.

It's easy enough to support the principles at stake here -- I do -- but not at all easy to predict the outcome. Aren't the courts likely to waffle and pass the buck by saying (a) the class is too broad and lacks standing; and/or (b) the only remedy, by necessary implication, is the (badly corrupted) ballot box?

If that's only half correct, where does it leave us? Reaching for the ammo box, most likely. You'd best be really clear that's what you want because there will be no going back.

You correctly indicate that the President took the oath of office, " "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

In Obama's case the key word is "ability!" By upbringing, tutoring and

ideology he lacks the "ability" to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution.

I passionately support EVERYTHING in our Constitution, and have nothing but contempt for those who would try to destroy it! I'm a retired lawyer, so I often looked to it for guidance, and it never failed in supplying that. As the foundation upon which America has stood, it is what has made us the greatest nation that the planet has ever known.

Is your server down? I have tried twice to register support for this action and both times was told my email could not go where it was supposed to.

God & Country

The Bible and The Consitution.

We have our playbooks.

The very cornerstone of this country a Nation founded "Under God" and with "Faith in God" is slowly on the road of destruction. Not from any foreign powers but from the lack of understanding and appreciating for our Constitution.

Including the devotion, respect and the hard work of our Founding Fathers. Our very own American Values and our American Way of Life are to be honored, protected and respected, if not by us, then how can we ever expect others to treat us with respect.

God Bless our Constitution, a Must read for all, including Political Leaders.

I am retired Army. I swore to uphold the Constitution and am still bound by that oath. The politians should be bound by the same integrity.

Yes, "I will support and defend the constitution of the United States, against all nemeies, foreign and Domestic...."

I took this oath every 4 years, for 20 years, and I will never forget that until the day I depart.

I am ready again to support and defend, if the call to muster, as citizen soldiers, should arise again.

ON JULY 5TH, 1961 I TOOK THE OATH WHEN I JOINED THE NAVY, TO SUPPORT AND DEFEND, BUT NEVER THOUGHT MUCH ABOUT DOMESTIC THREATS TO OUR WAY OF LIFE. NOW - THAT IS MY MAIN CONCERN, INCLUDING THE LIKES OF OBAMA, BIDEN, PELOSI, SCHUMER, THE CLINTONS, SOROS, AD. NAUSEA.

As a Marine during the Viet-Era (not a combat veteran) I gladly took an oath to Support and Defend the Constitution against all Enemies, Foreign AND Domestic. It was no accident that this Oath was prescribed for American military personnel. Our forefathers recognized that Tyrants from within can as easily threaten our God Endowed Liberties, as Tyrants from without. I am committed as ever to this Oath which has no expiration date. I am convinced that virtually all Veterans feel as strong about their Oath, or stronger, as the day they took it in their enlistment or commissioning ceremony.

Any elected or appointed office/bench holder must respect their oath with the same seriousness and integrity as those who have paid with blood, tears, lives, and toil (and diminished livelihoods) to fulfill their oaths - the American military men and women.

Anyone in the military is subject to disciplinary action and court-martial who shrinks from their post and orders in the day of battle. Office holders and judges must be held to the same accountability by the people for shrinking from their constitutionally defined duties in this day of battle.

God bless the Republic.

I would to like to register my vote for the oath accountability lawsuit but link isn't working. Put our names down-Hal and Ann Golden

Unfortunately it is more than supporting the Constitution. The very heart of our democratic system is based on the Constitution and the Rule of Law. Unfortunately those emplaced to maintain compliance are failing to perform their duty, ie: the Supreme Court has failed to investigate the legitimacy of Mr. Obama's right to rule, illegal immigrants are availing themselves of the rights and privledges of American Citizans with impunity.

Without our Constitution and the principles outlined in the Declaration of Independence, we are reduced to barbarism and tyranny

On my induction into the US Navy on Nov. 24, 1966 I swore an oath to 'protect and defend the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic'. I was happy to sign your petition as we now have so many domestic enemies in Washington. Good Luck and may God bless us even though too many of us have turned away from Him.

I fully support the the Oath Accountability Civil Action because, in my opinion, many of the members of the three branches have broken their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution.

The way I see it, an opportunity has been presented By Mark Alexander and the Patriot Post staff.

Do Nothing and consign us all to slavery under a tyrannical gangster government.

OR

We can rise up like the colonialists did at Concord and Lexington,

by that I mean we citizen who love liberty and our Constitutionally protected God given rights,

we must make very public like the TEA party uprising did,

this class action law suit that is to

“Restore Constitutional Integrity“.

In all regions of the country at high noon on a date

“To be Determined”

We all who support this endeavor should all gather at all Capitols of each State and Territories of the United States, demanding a redress of grievances such as outlined in Mark Alexander’s Class action suit.

To make this work we must get out the message to all that will listen and all that care.

If you wish to organize or help organize this national effort I offer my services and abilities to lead, follow and help organize a national supporting Patriot March our elected cannot ignore.

My e-mail is: dan@300americans.us

LET’S ROLL

The oath is not to be taken lightly.It has been defended with the blood of patriots and those who deign to redefine this document for their own purposes must be removed from office under penalty of law.

It may come to pass that we, the people, have to take more drastic measures to rid ourselves of the scum who believe they can do anything they want with impugnity.

The restoration of constitutional limits on government is a noble cause for essential freedom. If we must fight to accomplish this then so be it!

One small step to restore the integrity of our Constitution. But are we still a moral people?

I swore that oath twice when I enlisted and reenlisted in the United States Air Force. I meant it then as now. It is incumbent on me, and indeed my duty, to remain vigilant, ready to stand and defend this most beloved founding document. Freedom isn't free!

Have I taken an oath? You betcha I have. I took one when I became a Christian, I took one when I enlisted in the USAF, and I took one when I married. So far, I have honored them all. Oh, it's true, the wife walked away from hers, but that was her choice, not mine. The one I took when I joined the Air Force was very similar to the one the President took when he was sworn in. I honored my oath, but he has not. What a pity for him. I support this effort by the Patriot Post, and I will support the effort every way I can.

This is what I wrote in one of my web sites 300americans.us

Let our government know, acting outside the limits placed in the Constitution is unacceptable. Taxing the citizens of this country for every breath we take and every mile we walk or drive will no longer be tolerated. The elected government is not our masters; they were elected to defend our way of life, a life of liberty and independence, not servitude and submission. Let it be known on the 4th of July that we are putting the elected on notice, “you are not our Kings and Queens! Our money is not your money; you are not entitled to our sweat and labor beyond the operation of the government and the national defense. Do not treat us with contempt! This is your wake up call, the slumbering giant often referred to as the Silent Majority will no longer remain silent. Do what you were elected to do and restore the limits we placed upon you. The American population is a tolerant one but our tolerance is being pushed beyond the breaking point.

I support this position.

BEB

Since there is no way to force elected officials to abide by the oath they take, let's get tis oath accountability law or whatever to force them to do what we pay them to do.

I took this sacred oath, when I immigrated to the U.S.A. and joined the U.S. Navy, in 1964. I reaffirmed this oath when I became an American Citizen, in 1970 and reenlisted in the U.S. Navy , as an enlisted. Additionally, I reaffirmed this sacred oath, when I was promoted as a Naval Officer.I retired after a full 21- year career, in the U/S. navy. Even if an individual took this sacred oath, while in the service, for one tour, only, the validity of this oath still stands, even if this individual is currently a civilian. I believe that I could be called an "OATH KEEPER".

Elected officials and other Oath takers must be held accountable. What is now going-on, within the U.S. Government and in our country, is totally unacceptable and we need to take action, to reverse this direction, before it becomes too late.

Your article states to Register...how do I register

As an officer of the United States Army, I was sworn to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America. Many gave their lives to protect it. Now even our own president and members of congress are violating their oaths of the same. If I violated that oath it was treason. Why is it not treason if they violate that same oath?

All in favor say "Aye!"

I support We, the People! Taxation without representation AGAIN!

If we had even one federal district attorney with any backbone and sense of justice he would seek grand jury indictments of a large number of federal officials, both executive and legislative, for false swearing. Those who falsely swore to protect and defend the constitution inhabit both political parties, although they are far more numerous in the democrat ranks.

I took an oath both as an enlisted man and later as a commissioned officer to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, (etc.) It is an oath I still revere and live up to this date. Too many of our elected Representatives and Senators have forgotten the oath they took when they entered the office to which they were elected. I have asked Representative Gus Bilirakis to mention this to his fellow representatives.

I think that I agree with this action, however, I find the language used to be mind-numbing. I think you are trying to write in the style of our forefathers. This is admirable, but, as a product of modern times, I must constantly refer to my dictionary. I often get bogged down in verbage. It would help to have a simple overview to accompany the document. It would give direction to my pursuit of understanding.

Litigation has fared poorly as a valid means of social engineering. The unintended consequence of having public servants with integrity subject to suit for for violating oaths will distract good leaders and further discourage qualified candidates for office. This action is ill-conceived.

I've not taken an oath, but given that the Lord truly blessed me, in that I was born in the United

States and knowing all that has been sacrificed so that I can live in freedom, I have a duty to do all that I can to see that our country remains free and that our liberties are defended and protected. It's so easy to see all of it just taken away from us, little by little, that we must remain vigilant.

I've taken the oath when I enlisted 31 years ago and have subscribed to it ever since. My daughter, her husband and my son have also taken that sacred oath. The Constitution is the foundation of this great Republic. If mere citizen soldiers can take and uphold the oath, should not our elected repersentatives be held to the same standard?

God Bless You, God Bless The Patriot Post and God Bless America!!

As a commisioned officer of the U.S. Army, retired, I took an oath to defend the Constitution of the United States agaist all enimies, foreign and domestic. If I am held to that oath, as I am, so are every one who takes the same oath in order to enter in and hold an office of the United States.

As a Senior Chief Petty Officer, retired after 27 years service in the United States Navy, I have taken the oath several times.

I only ask that our elected/appointed officials take their oaths half as seriously as I did.

I took the oath several times while enlisting and reenlisting in the U.S. Armed Forces. At those times I had no idea to what I was swearing. Since then I have read and studied the Constitution several times plus The Federalist Papers. I was shocked to discover that over 50% of Our current federal government has no delegated authorization, Congress blithely passses legislation with little or no constitutional basis, and that opinions rendered by the Judicial branch liewise hardly ever cite constitutional justification, but have relied on "penumbras" known only to them, and have blatantly violated their oaths by citing foreign laws as justification for their opinions.

There should be a requirement for all personnel preparing to take this oath to either receive training on the Constitution AS WRITTEN and RATIFIED or successfully pass a test demonstrating this knowledge.

when I joined the U.S. Air Force I took an Oath to defend the Constitution. When I was seperated I did not see anything in the paperwork I signed that rescinded or canceled that Oath. It would seem that millions of U.S. citizens are still sworn to this cause.

The problem is that too many people want to take & will lie to qualify. Some people practice "monkey see, monkey do", so when they hear our so-called leaders lying, they feel justified. They don't have any concept of personal integrity. It's an ethics & spiritual issue.

Having spent five years in the U.S. Army, I took an oath to defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic. Although my active duty was limited to five years, I'm a firm believer that an oath is for a life time. I, therefore, continue to see it as my duty to defend the Constitution (against ALL enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC); as such, I also see it as my duty to ensure that others, who have taken the same oath, adhere to that oath - for them to do otherwise would, by definition, make them "enemies of the U.S. Constitution" - as previously stated, I have taken an oath to defend against the same. Support of this Civil Action represents a first line of defense against a potential domestic enemy.

I remain under oath, even though retired from the U.S. Navy.

To Patriot Post,

Good luck with your fiduciary action, from what I have been reading there is a lot of malfeasance in public office.

It is so obvious that an oath is pointless unless enforced, proving the breach , good luck.

Insofar as your constitution is concerned, being erroneously called 'a living constitution' , which is obviously a socialist construct like a living will, which some jumped up 'piece of work' thinks they can change to suit themselves.

I would have thought that the premise should be 'living by the constitution' [that great product of the enlightenment]. America has lived by it.

Upon entering the United States Army many years ago, I too swore an oath to protect and defend the US Constitution and the laws of the United States against all foes, foreign and domestic. I served to the best of my ability and was honorably discharged, as a Sergeant. I have never taken any oath lightly!

However in executing this oath and completing my service, according to our president, I am a terrorist”! How does one act upon that oath now? It is not difficult to identify the greatest threat to our national security, our liberties and to the United States Constitution, as the worst foe in our history.

It is of course, the "leadership" of our country. They have put themselves above the law. Therefore, they are untouchable through any means, other than the polls! There are so many voting government “parasites”, that this is becoming an almost impossible route to improvement.

Voting for the “conservative” candidates has not been enough to insure my oath is being faithfully executed, or honored. The parties are not offering much for candidates. This does absolutely nothing to preserve our constitution. Unfortunately, nothing short of “an act of God”, a terrorist attack on the congress and the current "leadership", or civil unrest and bloodshed, is going to change anything.

Since congress and "leadership" have abused their power and stolen our future, they should pay for it by altering their "royal" status to that of regular citizens! They should earn normal salaries for their time and efforts, and then put on social security, with some form of health insurance and retirement, comparable to non-government employment!

Lobbyists should be outlawed! Politicians, who accept and corporations, that offer large political contributions should be tried for felony bribery and if convicted, sentenced to a minimum of 25 years in prison, and then a $250,000.00 fine. If politicians want the job, let them seek support from their constituents through small contributions.

This country is hated all over the world. Therefore, the US should withdraw from the UN and NATO. We should stop all foreign aid, and then win the wars currently being waged by military means. We should withdraw our troops to protect our own borders.

We can balance the budget in a matter of a very few years, by deporting all aliens here illegally and taking care of our own, by means of laws and programs that are constitutional!

The government would shrink to take care only of its constitutional obligations, not exceed its authority and allow the free market operate, without liberal social democratic hindrances. The government agencies should reduce in size or be abolished altogether.

The borders are already established and laws are in place to protect them. Enforce them and send all people, who do not legally, where they belong. We cannot support the world any longer!

Enacting some of all of these concepts would save trillions of taxpayer dollars in no time. We are a country of laws and we should get back to that business.

We served our country for 34 years, taking the Oath, to uphold the Constitution, We do not believe that our Fore fathers had any intention to make it a tool for Lawyers to ask us Citizens to pay them, for keeping the Constitution in tact and uphold it, making and using the constitution as a tool to make them rich and then glorifying them selfs for having done so.

Enough is enough, where is our Justice department, they are not doing anything to uphold their Oath, certainly not by sitting on the Bench and doing nothing.

-----------------------------------

Taking the Oath five times and knowing I was signing a blank check for my life to defend this country and our laws enacted in the Constitution. Today it really upsets me to see the Politions and Judges change whatever part "THEY" feel is not to "THEIR" personal our their parties best interests for what they want to accomplish is disgusting. They should ALL be held accountable for and prosicuted for attempting to diminish or destroy the Rule of Law and rights of the people AS WRITTEN in the Constitution. JHS.

I completely agree with the accountability proposal.

This action is long overdue. It is time for "we the people" to make the "ruling class" understand and honor the oath they took.

A few have commented that this may distract good people from their elected duties. Or that it may dissuade some from running for office. OK. So be it. That's the point. Someone who does not wish to be held accountable to abide by the oath is precisely someone we should exclude from working for us in our government.

I too took the oath forty eight years ago. I am still being paid by the government, and therefore that oath is still in effect. All retired military in this country are still bound by that oath. One of the problems in Congress is that so few men now are veterans or have served in the military forces. I hold myself accountable to that oath and consider it each time I vote. I further hold accountable each person who is elected to Federal office.

A few have commented that this may distract good people from their elected duties. Or that it may dissuade some from running for office. OK. So be it. That's the point. Someone who does not wish to be held accountable to abide by the oath is precisely someone we should exclude from working for us in our government.

I took an oath when I entered the U.S. Army to defend our Constitution against all enemies both foreign and domestic. Boy do I get the foreign and now I get the DOMESTIC part, by our ? present congress and president.

There are many items in the Constitution that could be construed in many different manners. Therefore, a definition of each term needs to be obtained. You and I may agree that a phrase has a certain meaning, however, many people wishing to ignore that item will see it differently. President Clinton had the word "is" having a lack of definition. If that is true, how can you proceed. I have rewritten the Constitution in an attempt to place language that is simple to define and clear as to intent. This is what is needed in my opinion.

Mark, I took the Oath on June 14, 1962, the day I enlisted to serve my nation in the US Army. I thank God for this nation and the liberty and freedom it has afforded me and my family through the many generations since my ancestors arrived in the 18th century. One of my ancestors was the first President of the Continental Congress, John Hanson.

I support you and all patriots and your efforts to get this nation back under the Constitution and living within in the confines thereof. I pledge my life, my wealth and my Sacred Honor. To God Be The Glory.

Yes, I took a very similar oath when I was commissioned as an officer in the United States Air Force. I took it seriously, as did my father, father-in-law, several uncles, my spouse, and several nephews (one of whom has earned FOUR Bronze Stars). I was appalled when Clinton got away with actions that would get any military officer cashiered. Never thought I would see the day when Clinton looked good to me. The sad thing is that Obama told us that the words in the oath were not important to him.. He told us exactly what his values and priorities are - not just on the campaign trail, but in his first book, "Dreams from my Father". I am scared for my college - aged kids!!

I took the oath back in 2004 when I was sworn in as an officer in the Marine Corps League.

I am so grateful that I discovered the Patriot Post about 7-8 years ago. Your ministry is one of honor and of service to our nation. well done Mark and staff.

Semper Fi

More than 40 years ago I took an oath to uphold the Constitution & this nation against ALL enemies foreign & domestic. A little over 20 years ago I retired from the military service, but I never forgot my oath of allegiance. I still hold this nation and that oath dear to my heart. Consequently, I have compiled a small arsenal along with ammunition to actively defend our nation.

For 20 years I fought for the sanctity of this nation - decrying any insurgency against our national personnel. Never would I have ever called for any attack against our nation, our representatives, or our government; however, I fear that this administration has failed to live up the oaths that they took upon accepting the position that they hold. Consequently, I am ready to join 'We the People' who are close to requiring a second Constitution referendum that will require active support to regain our freedoms & laws upon which this nation was founded.

On June the 6th, 1962 I entered the United States Marine Corps. I swore an oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States and there was no expiration date concerning that oath. If we fail to regain our country peacefully, then it will be by force of arms. Semper Fidelis, to God, Country & Corps.

"You can have no oath registered in heaven to destroy the Government; while I shall have the most solemn one to "preserve, protect, and defend" it."

- Abraham Lincoln

The time has not passed when a man or woman's oath should not be cherished and abided by. There are those still who have the character and heart. Thank almighty God.

You need to be PROUD

An Oath is a PROMISE and when "We the People", which means all of us as legal citizens of these wonderful United States of America, stand and recite with our hands over our hearts, and our Military forces with their hands in the 'Salute' to 'THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE' to the Flag of these great United States of America, and we promise to do all in our power and with reliance on the greatest power of all, Our Great Father in Heaven, God, to obey all the laws of God and this choice land that He gave to us, He will help us to be able to take back our wonderful, great, and choice land, choice above all others, IF WE WILL HUMBLE OURSELVES, AND RECOGNIZE THAT WE HAVE GREAT NEED TO REPENT AND OBEY ALL OF HIS LAWS.HE LOVES EACH AND EVERYONE OF HIS CHILDREN AND WANTS TO BLESS US.

YES! I have taken the OATH many times as a soldier and a Federal Law Enforcement Agent. It hurts deep down inside to see what is happening to our country now. I am angry! But.....I certainly do not want to raise my rifle to any Americans...that is my anger, that I might have to do such a thing. My GOD help the U.S.A. that so many have sacrificed so much to Protect and Defend. Now to see a PRESIDENT ignoring the flag with his nose in the air is a slap in the face to all real Americans.

I took my oath to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States against ALL enemies foreign and domestic" in July 1967 when I enlisted in the Navy. That oath was made to my country and my GOD. As Patrick Henry said, I will NOT allow my children to be purchased into the chains of slavery. I WILL GO to MY GRAVE DEFENDING OUR Country and it's Constitution.

Do it right!

Like Mr Lickey, I pledged my loyalty and service to the protection of the United States. Further, I believe that the current president is a muslim, anti-american, and not worthy to be president.

But then, I recognize my conservative bias blinds me to any program submitted by any democrat except for one old-timer who always votes republician. He retains the moniker of Democrat because it is historical and he can't quite renounce his family connections.

I have the greatest respect for the Patriot Post and what it has done for this country since its inception. However, the greatest violation of our Constitution in the history of our country has been perpetrated by Barack Obama because he is not "natural born" (since his father was admittedly a British subject, he has been a dual citizen of Great Britain and the U.S. since birth).

Every member of Congress and every judge knows this is true because the Democratic Senate required a resolution to be passed saying that he was "natural born". In essence, each of them are violating their oaths of office by not having him prosecuted.

The absolutely most important and helpful thing that could be for our country would be for Rep. Issa to launch an investigation into Obama's being "natural born" (he promised to investigate eligibility during his campaign last fall, but, of course, has not done it. Boehner has completely rolled over on the subject. If every member of the Patriot Post would write, call or fax their Congressman incessantly, starting tomorrow, as well as Issa and Boehner, we could force an investigation.

From the that a charge of "quo Warranto" could be brought against Obama and he would be invalidated at President. Think about it ! Everything he has signed (including ObamaCare) and every appointment he has made (including two Supreme Court Justices) would be invalid. Is there a more important thing we could do now? Think of what good it would do for the country immediately. I plead and urge everyone to take up this issue and fax, call and write Congress until they follow their oaths and force an investigation. Let us take our country back now, before any more damage is done to our great country by this usurper (a legal term for somwone holding office illegally).

PS I left out the fact that the investigation by the Deoocratic Senate in paragraph two of the post above was on "natural born" for John McCAin. Why the RINO's did not require the same for Obama at the same time, and saved us all from Obama, is completely beyond me.

Restore the Rule of Law, the Law of the Land; Our Constitution. Restore America.

We want to sign up for support of Oath Accountability, however we cannot find out where we can sign up for this.

We clicked on your flag sign, but found nothing where in we could sign up.

Any assistance you can afford us will be greatly appreciated.

Great and noble cause, Mark, but, most regrettably you haven’t got a snowballs chance in hell of success. But, wait a minute. Isn’t that what they were telling David as he loaded the stone that felled Goliath !

Your own quote from Thomas Jefferson*, begs the lie of the stealth five of the Supreme Court to make corporations count as a people to grant money to buy our representatives/elections. It therefore goes against the Constitution that no moneys go to place us under the despotism of an oligarchy. I have been calling it Fascism perpetrated by the GOP. Wasn't it Bush that, against all advise and to "avenge" his daddy that we were/are at war? A war with devastating effect on another country, as well as our own, in terms of loss of lives and economic failure. When a group of people in power make it their sworn objective to not allow our government to do the business of the people until the president that the people elected is OUT of office, THAT is treasonous. As an American citizen, I've believed in our government for all of my 79 years, until it became obvious that it is now being run by and for, only those that have money and the power that money can buy. I am for the first time NOT PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN.

* See Thomas Jefferson: quote in above message.

It seems as though there are items in the Constitution that could be taken differently by different people so perhaps taking an oath could conceiveably be interpreted however the individual wants. Perhaps a more distinct definition of each term needs to be done, in otherwords re-word those items clearly so that there can be no misinterpretation of intention.

I most definately support upholding their sworn oath to protect, defend and abide the intentions of the Constitution and not ignore their accountability to do that.

Here is a transcript of the OATH OF OFFICE (DA FORM 71--Ref. AR 135-100) that I signed 2 OCT 67:

---Quote---

I, John Everette Russell O2 335 295, having been appointed an officer in the Army of the United States, as indicated above in the grade of 1LT do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic, that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office upon which I am about to enter; so help me God.

---Unquote---

I intend to continue to keep my word by legal means.

Dr. John E. Russell

Chaplain (COL) AUS Retired

Vietnam, 1969

As a Commissioned Officer of the United States Army, I did, indeed, take an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign or domestic. I took that oath seriously, and I still do. I expect all members of the Federal Government who also take the oath to abide by it, without exception, and not to choose which parts of the Constitution they will uphold. I totally support this action, without reservation, and will gladly affix my name thereto.

Mark,

While I share your sentiment I respectfully disagree with your proposed legal action which will amount to nothing more than a bottomless money pit. Squandering precious resources to support this exercise in futility makes me wonder if I should continue financial support, piddling as it may be.

Your assertion ..."We will reject the notion that the power to vote constitutes fair "representation" where there is no assurance that representatives will abide by their oaths of office..." presupposes this is a losing propostion. To what end and what justification? Principal? I submit that elected officials who do not abide by their oath should be removed from office. Not necessarily at the next election, either. Legal remedies are readily available to remove elected representatives. Strategic targeting and removal of just a few malfeasants is not only acheivable but would get the undivided attention of their cohorts, PDQ. As opposed to what, wholesale removal of Fed or State elected chambers for not adhering to an oath of office? Who makes that determination? You? Me? Reality check: there's more of them than there are of us. That and that alone is the reason we see these idiots elected. And that's where you need to spend your time and money. Get into (the majority's) heads. Try to make them understand what they are doing to our country. Much more effective than a civil suit seeking....what? It's the ballot, man. The ballot. THAT's how you win this country back.

No, I'm not on board with this. Smirks of a money raising scam, particularly so when one understands there are established and proven processes in place to remove elected officials from office.

OK, people. Let me have it now. I'm ready.

if there must be trouble, let it be in my day,that my child may have peace.(Thomas Paine) and a disabled veteran of Vietnam,who took an oath, For Freedom or Death,for this GREAT

LAND,United States of America. I support this action .

I have given my oath to three organsations in my life. Scouting, the Military, and Freemasonry. None of these oaths have interfiered with my duty to my God, my family, my country, or myself.

If you take a oath you need to obey it or suffer the concequenses of your actions (or lack of them)be they in this world or the next. Our political leaders need to be held responsable for there actions.

Although I fully support the rule of law, and the primacy of our Constitution, I'm afraid that the breach oath suit will be useless (but give it a try anyway). The problem is not that the oath "to defend, etc.) is being broken, the problem is that the concept of the "living Constitution" (started by a Chief Justice, was it Marshall?, nearly 200 years ago) has become general.

I am a believer in original intent, and in interpreting the wording in the context of the vocabulary of the time. A state at that time was not a form of province of a nation, it was a sovereign entity. The United States, as a nomenclature, was not a nation - it was a voluntary Federation of sovereign states who gave certain powers to the Federal government.

I realize that the above is a tautology to us, but the erosion of that concept over 200 odd years has given us the "living Constitutions" as a fact in being. The oath would not be breached by those who subscribe to that concept. What we need is a movement to re-establish the original intent of the Constitution.

When someone speaks to me of a "living Constitution" I reply that we have a "Constitution that still lives in spite of a century of progressive efforts to strangle away this Nation's last breath."

Jon,

I fully understand what you are saying. However, the constitution is a CONTRACT between the several states (as representing We the People) to create the Federal Government and grant to it limited powers. Contracts can only be changed when all parties agree to those changes in writing (amendments) and not because "the times they are a'changing."

WORDS-WORDS-WORDS. As an 89 year old veteran who lived through the horror of six (maybe seven, including Libya),world conflicts, I have to ask - Exactly when are all you wordsmiths going to get off your butts and ACT? Can anyone tell me when words alone resolved any conflict in history?

Amen, Amen and AMEN. We agree and will support this effort in any way we possibly can. I will be forwarding this to our 9-12 Group.

The Country needs to return toward constitutional guarantees and values.

Oaths are taken to prove one's character. If you can abide by an oath and some require that secrets be kept is shows your are trustworthy.. BHO is not

As a boy, I was taught that an OATH is a solemn promise to GOD and is to be taken very seriously.In the "old days" one would put a hand on the Bible and proclaim "So help me God".

Of course, to be PC today, this is rarely done any more. I suspect that it has been virtually eliminated in order to ease one's conscience rather than the old "separation of church and state" mantra.

"So help us God".

I must agree with Mr. Stover, you sound like a true, original, American.

@Dr P J Jonas

Wow, @ 79 years old and a doctor to boot are you really still drinking the liberal main stream media kool-aid? Can someone at that age really be that naive?

You wrote, "As an American citizen, I've believed in our government for all of my 79 years".

That was your biggest mistake... Do you really think it only took 8 years and one president to get to this point? Really?

No wonder we find ourselves in this predicament.

My grandfather, although I never knew him, was a democratic IL state representative. My father was also a registered democrat. I consider myself a conservative. I know they are rolling in their (not there) graves, because both of them were much more conservative than I will ever be.

Upon discovering the inconsequentiality of these efforts, what will follow? If we do not restore the rule of the Constitution immediately, will it not be the rule of unconstitutional law that destroyed the nation. The oaths of liars are meaningless. Who among us does not fear the government in it's current condition. The burden heaped upon the people to crush them by executive order to implement a super Cloward-Piven strategy.

When I tried to sign the Accountability Oath, I received the message that my e-mail address was already "taken". the same with my secondary e-mail (which I have never used w/ Patriot Post to my memory). Does this mean that I am already listed or is there a glitch in the petition?

I took an oath when I was drafted into the Army to "proect and defend" against all enemies foreign and domestic. I took the oath again when I was sworn in as a reserve officer. I took the oath a third and last time when I was sworn in as a Regular Army offier. That oath was a solemn obligation which should be no less an obligation on our elected and appointed officials. Taking the oath is not theater or a good sound bite.

The elected leaders, and those appointed by them, must restrict their activities within the confines of the US Constitution. To do otherwise is abuse of power and a violation of the oath that they took. These cannot do whatever they please but are under the constraints of the Constitution.

I believe we need two new laws that focus on our elected officials and appointed officials to include judges.

1. Betrayal of the Public Trust

2. Crimes against the people.

The penalities should be severe, up to and including death.

I have never taken an oath of public office, but I do believe that those who do should be required to live up to it. An oath is an affirmation of intent to live up to some guideline or set of guidelines. In this country, too many people do not take an oath seriously, they hold to it only so long as it is convenient and then forget it the moment it becomes inconvenient. Those who will not honor a marriage vow, for example, will not honor any other vows. We need to know about our elected officials and their past so we can judge whether they will hold to the expectations we have for them. Those who do not honor their vows should be punished for it. If an elected official breaks the law, he or she should be punished just like anyone else would who did the same thing, not be overlooked because of their office.

I took the oath to defend the Constitution in 1969. That oath has been at the forefront of my life ever since. It will be very educational to see the various judges, confronted by this case, squirm and equivocate over 'we the people's' rights. Hats off to the Patriot Post.

This is the most encouraging thing I've read since 2008. This is truly a beginning, which could mean the turning point for our republic to regain it's sovereignty, it's respect and honor. This could be our light at the end of the tunnel, a tunnel which has emitted nothing but darkness for too long now. This could be the catalist of an awakened nation. I trust it is obvious that you have my support. As another well-known patriot so aptly once put it, my only regret is that I have only one life to give for my country. NEVER, (that is an absolute)

NEVER GIVE UP!! No white flag - got it?

Fantastic idea! If this catches on it would preclude any statist vermin from serving at any level of federal, state, or local government -- because their collectivist and tyrannical political philosophy is diametrically opposed to those principles the Constitution seeks to protect and on which America is founded.

They should also be sued for creating an elite group or specialty group who do not have to abide by the laws that they pass, including not having to be in the social security pool and not being forced to be a part of Obamacare like the rest of the citizens are being required to do. That should have been another reason that the health care act was declared unconstitutional, because they had written into it certain groups that were excluded, some by work related exceptions and some by being elected officials.

I swore an oath to protect the Constitution for 26 years and never in my life did I imagine taking orders from a CinC who, as an admitted hard core drug user/experimenter in college, is shredding the very document that has framed our nation and our way of life. With his past drug use, do you realize that he would have been denied entry into our professional all-volunteer force? Now he sits at the helm of the most potent force on the planet. Boggling.

It is way past time this was done.

These 52 words are the most important words of the document and every American should memorize them.They in effect describe the entire Constitution of the United States of America.

THIS OATH IS REQIRED OF ANY ONE WHO HOPES TO ATTAIN ANY PUBLIC OFFICE OF TRUST.

IT IS MANDATORY, IF YOU REFUSE TO AGREE AND SIGN THE PLEGE OF ALLEGINACE YOU CANNOT BE ELICTED.

this pledge is mandatory if any one refuses to sign the pledge he/she will not get elected to any office.

Mr. Alexander, this action is most encouraging and I can't think of anyone I'd rather see at the head of it. If we cannot expect people to have a very high degree of honesty, integrety and moral character to be the leaders in this country, there is really very little we can expect from their oaths. There has to be consequences for swearing on the bible to uphold the law. In a court of law, lying after being sworn in is called perjury and is most assurely punishable. As I see it we presently have quite a number of people in government who have commited perjury. Time to pay up!

I too, as so many others have, took an oath when I joined the Navy, and another when I Joined the Air Force. I was proud to serve and proud of my country, which is more than I can say for our current CinC who appears to feel just the oposite. Arnie

I took an oath upon entering the USAF. Then in civilian life I took an oath to uphold the laws of the United states, the state of Arizona, the county and municipal laws.... and did so for 30 years. Damn proud of it.

Sign me up. It is time to fight at their game!

Dwayne

I too, as the many before took an oath upon entering the Navy. I served honorably and proudly for 20 years and I continue to serve working for the Department of the Navy giving repair support to our war fighters. I am very proud of my country but very ashamed of my government. The current CINC of the Armed Forces of the United States is NOT worthy of our respect or our support.

Mark, I have always appreciated the work you and your organization has done; but I do believe, though well-intentioned, this is not a proper avenue to take to correct the wrong being done. If you are interested in a discussion as to why this is not proper, see the related discussion at:

http://www.teapartynation.com/group/constitutionstudygroup/forum/topics/patriot-post-and-the-don-quixote-approach-to-enforcing-the-oath?commentId=3355873%3AComment%3A1477632&xg_source=msg_com_gr_forum

Thanks again and please reconsider this action.

the people in this country that feel they should get hand outs, need to wake up and start working.

We all need to defend OUR country.

We need to wake up & put the honest people back into the gov.

we only have one flag,& it is RED-WHITE-& BLUE,

lETS KEEP IT THAT WAY

Glad The Tea party appeared on the scene when they did somebody's got save this country from its own self destruction.

I, (NAME), do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.

I took this oath when I enlisted in the Marine Corps and unlike the majority of our elected "leaders" I don't intend to break it. My name is on the list of supporters for this civil action because of my oath and my belief that our central government has lost it's way.

Start with Obama

May future generations preserve the freedom and liberty that we have had.

Criminalizing "political behavior" is a dreadful idea and will only serve to undermine the existing-yet currently ignored, corrective provisions already embodied in our Constitution.

As the infantry "Marine" stated earlier, I also took this oath when I enlisted July 9, 1943, and I have not departed from it since. I have no intention of changing my stance. I believe that we are "endowed by our Creator....", and I strongly believe that our Federal Government has been ignoring, and continues to ignore, its limited powers, as enumerated in our Constitution. When our sitting President says he wishes he could go around(can you say "ignore"?the Congress, (paraphrasing), it is time for the citizens to act.

Everyone entering military service must take an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the US against all enemies, foreigh and domestic. Many of today's politicians go through the act of pledging without the intention to perform. They think the oath is just words with no real, serious meaning to them. Most veterans take the oath seriously, to the point of giving their lives, if need be, to perform to the full extent the obligation contained in their oath. Some politicians think it's just something to do to get the job - not a binding obligation to perform the same.

I firmly agree with what I have read as regards to our ORIGINAL Constitution and I will support in any way I can to see it restored as it was written.

I am so blown away by how our government just takes it upon themselves to change whatever they wish and attempt to make it constitutional. This action is long overdue.

Let us pray that it does not take a revolution of free citizens to return to our roots of the Constituion of America.

America's mid life crisis.....true!

http://media.voe.org/

To enter the entering military service, one must take an oath to support and defend the U.S. Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. Today's politicians only pretend to defend the Constitution when taking the oath. The actual words mean nothing to them. Enumerated powers? "Please???" as per Nancy Peloci. Conversely, our veterans, now mostly volunteers, take the oath very seriously and willingly risk their lives to defend.

I had to take an oath to uphold the Constitution when i jioned the U S N and still feel i should adhere to that oath, as i well do.

Also the three branches of our Gov't as well as the President should be held accountable to uphold that oath which they each had to swear to as well, so let's join together and hold their feet to the fire!!!

The constitution is the rule of the land and it should be respected by all including the president and both houses of congress.

Oath Keepers which is run by Stewart Rhodes and Sheriff Richard Mack is sucessfully doing this very thing. We should all be onboard with them.

The Founding Fathers wrote the Constitution to avoid many of the issues we deal with, today.

I have, on several occasions, taken the oath to Support and Defend our CONSTITUTION against all enemies, foreign AND DOMESTIC.

I value that oath. I do my best to honor and comply with that oath on a daily basis. Unfortunately, many in the house and senate have forgotten what that oath really means and as a result, violate it on an almost daily basis.

Many in our State governments have also demonstrated their propensity in NOT supporting the Constitution of the United States of America.

We have several real DOMESTIC ENEMIES in our current Federal and State administrations. We must do our best to eliminate their threats to OUR country in the upcoming elections.

I took the oath when I enlisted in the U.S. Army. I was honorably discharged from "active duty" but not from my oath.

I stand ready to honor my oath in what ever manner it becomes necessary.

If there was a legitimate candidate running for the office of President of the United States, one that would vow to uphold the sanctity of our Constitution as written then that candidate would be elected.

I invested over twenty-six years on active duty in the United States Air Force protecting the Constitution of the United States and am proud to have served. One day while severing in Korea, a young South Korean youth approached and asked this question; " Sir, what is the difference between Liberty and Freedom?" I was a bit perplexed. I had never tried to articulate the difference in definition." Freedom is exrmption from external control, while Liberty in freedom from arbitrary or despotic government or control."

What has happened to our freedom and liberty? We have a despotic government attempting to exert control in every facet of our lives. Who's to blame? Us, we have either ignored this insideious movement or we have not shown the "true grit" of those who stould their ground before us; from the patriots of 1776, throughout history to the present.

Now this nation is under seige by a group of liberal socialists bent on achieveing their own goals at the expense of our freedom and liberty. THEY MUST BE STOPPED!! FELLOW PATRIOTS UNITE!! LET'S REGAIN CONTROL OF THIS NATION, THE LAND OF THE FREE AND THE BRAVE!!

Merely a step in the right direction.

When Americans again understand the organic (original) US Constitution, then they can begin to understand why it does not apply, in law, to them as; "citizens of the United States" (federal government).

Does not apply? Hasn't it been, isn't it, obvious?

Citizen

n. person who by place of birth, nationality of one or both parents, or by going through the naturalization process has sworn loyalty to a nation. The United States has traditionally taken the position that an American citizen is subject to losing his/her citizenship if he/she commits acts showing loyalty to another country, including serving in armed forces potentially unfriendly to the United States, or voting in a foreign country. However, if the foreign nation recognizes dual citizenship (Canada, Israel, and Ireland are common examples) the U.S. will overlook this duality of nationalities.

http://dictionary.law.com/Default.aspx?selected=194

"loyalty to a nation" i.e. government.

Since when were citizens of the original republics loyal to the government, nation, or State "United States", citizens of the US federal government?

They were NOT, prior to the 14th Amendment, the "Reconstruction", The War Between the States.

The several separate and independent sovereign republic nation States created the federal government.

The people of the several separate and independent sovereign republic nation States where not citizens of the newly created federal government.

They were not "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" of the newly created federal government.

The people were protected, in law, from the newly created federal government by their separate and independent republic nation State government constitutions. They were not "one nation", "indivisible" prior to the so-called "Civil War". Are nations that are forced into a federation free? Do not overlook the obvious.

That all changed with the so-called "Civil War" and the 14th Amendment.

Prior to this, the people were citizens, with loyalty to their several separate and independent sovereign republic nation State's governments. Not the federal government.

In law, that makes all the difference.

Once Americans became "citizens of the United States" (federal government) they no longer had lawful protection ("standing" in law) by the Republic's constitutions.

They then did become unconstitutionally "one nation", "indivisible." Isn't it obvious?

How is it that so many can be so emotional over "The Pledge of Allegiance" that was written by socialist Francis Bellamy?

Difficult concepts to comprehend after a lifetime of indoctrination, I know.

The victors write the history, and the victors of the so-called "Civil War" have been writing the history.

But check our premises we must.

Don't overlook the obvious.

While the sentiment is nice, this is a waste of time and money for several reasons. One, any case brought is likely to be thrown out because of standing--the court will say there is no specific harm to specific people. If you get past that, they will say these are political issues, and you have the option to vote these people out. You can say "we reject" that we have representation, but saying it is not a legal argument, and the fact is, you can vote out people who don't uphold their oaths. Third, there is a lot of room for interpretation of whether someone has broken a Constitutional oath, thanks to broad interpretations by the courts among other reasons.

But the biggest block to this, even if you could get it to trial, is the voting records of conservatives. There is a long line of GOP candidates like Bush, Dole, Bush, and McCain who have run on platforms that violated the Constitution, and in the cases of the Bushes, they ran for 2nd terms with a clear record of having broken their oaths, and CONSERVATIVES SUPPORTED THEM while ignoring candidates who promised to uphold their oaths. I know all the arguments for choosing the lesser of two evils, pragmatism over principle, etc. But if there is a supposed large number of people who are concerned about this, then why did they not get behind Constitutional candidates? Almost any conservative that is party to this suit could be called to the stand and shown to have actively supported these oath-breakers, and be laughed out of court.

Most conservatives vote for oath breakers out of fear and refusal to believe doing what is right in God's eyes comes first. They vote for known oath-breakers, and they have gotten leaders who break oaths in spades--just not the oath-breakers they wanted. Well, if you vote for an oath-breaker, you deserve whatever you get.

This is awesome. But disgusting that it is necessary.

When elected officials use the "promote the general welfare" line to justify anything on their perverse agendas, we have a problem. When elected officials reject the OBVIOUS sound concept and innocent gesture of reciting the constitution in session, we have a problem. When elected officials refuse to cite the constitutional authority under which they propose a piece of legislation, we have a problem. We indeed have a major problem.

We have a battle between corporate America and the government, with the people and charitable organizations caught in the middle. Government has become the focus, not the tool or servant organization it was created to be. Government leaders pretend to be serving our interests, but it is truly not our interests being served: The focus is on the needs of the government, not the needs of the people.

President Obama and elected officials speak of making "investments", but this is just disguising the truth: They are picking your pockets to pay for their own re-election.

The current jobs bill is a total farse and class warfare designed to gain political points for the President and the democratic party. The jobs are short term, if any will in fact be "created". Once the money runs out, the government will use it as another crisis and continue to soak industrious workers for more taxes to pay for an extension of temporary jobs and/or unemployment. This is akin to "giving a man a fish" instead of teaching him to fish. No long term solution is created.

The Republicans have it correct: Businesses will not invest in long term capital projects or new jobs in a chaotic environment, and the government is the problem.

I also love the rhetoric and class warfare. I am not rich, but I do pay taxes. I would love for the people who currently pay no taxes to pay taxes in exchange for the privilege of voting and also to pass a basic civics class on the constitution.

In 1975 I joined the National Guard. I took an oath then to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.

Even though I am no longer a Guardsman, the oath I took is still in force today. I consider it an honor to have taken it.

I, too, like so many others who have posted responses in this forum, have taken the Oath to, "support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic." I do not believe that turning to the courts like a liberal to solve what is essentially a moral problem is the answer. Eventually the liberals will triumph. Any victory will be temporary, at best. What we need is a great revival of faith, morality, integrity, duty, honor, courage, and patriotism in this country. This can only come about by each one of us refuting every liberal lie we hear EVERY TIME and by telling all who will listen about the greatness of the United States. It is difficult sometimes. I take courses at the local community college. I have been mocked by students less than half my age as well as professors for espousing conservativism. But, I have also made converts and have at least convinced some young people to take a more objective look at what politicians, newscasters, and yes, their professors, have to say. This is how we will win, not by running to the courts like whiny, liberal, pantywaists.

Congress has failed to uphold their oath of office and should be removed from office in accordance with Sections 3 and 4 of the 14th Amendment. It's clear that many members of the House and Senate have not only rebelled against the Constitution, but they have given aid or comfort to the enemies of the Constitution. This includes a large number of Federal employees who shouldbe held accoutnable as well.

It does my heart good to see so many of you awake and involved! I was involved in this battle long over a decade ago and if you google my name you can see the book I wrote about our current criminal government!

There is not a single court of competent jurisdiction left in this country administered by a member of the judiciary! Members of the bar have violated seperation of powers doctrine and taken over all three branches! They have declared themselves immune in a nation where the only immunity was established as the rights of the People! The cure will most likely be the same one spoken of in the faretta supra concerning the former solicitors of the crown!

That being said, petition is not working, I have done so and been surrounded in court by armed deputies not to arrest me for wrong doing, but to prevent my delivery of process to an imposter judge!

If we are to proceed agsinst this entrenched mob, we must follow the examples of the founders and do so by Declaration of law! Begging for petition by one of the mob cannot work as he violated the oath he took as well! The entire point of securing a jury trial was to strip the black robed bandits of their ability to corrupt all things with the flick of a pen and put the rule of law into the hands of those who are the law, "The People"!

Judges dont interpret the Constitution, We do! Yes you and I are the ones who shall dictate to our civil servants what the law is by declaration!

In United States v. Sprague, 282 U. S. 716, 731, 75 L. Ed. 640, 51 S. Ct. 220, 71 A. L. R. 1381, the court said:

"The Constitution was written to be understood by the voters;

its words and phrases were used in their normal and ordinary as distinguished from technical meaning; where the intention is clear there is no room for construction and no excuse for interpolation or addition."

Violating the oath is perjury, taking the oath without the intent to keep it is fraud! Calling them on it as it occurs is JUSTICE! Failing to do so will maintain the criminal mob and their racket of JUSTUS!

In response to comment above by Mitch Turner;

I think this objective here is a good idea, if nothing else, to determine whether Americans do or do not have "standing" in law on constitutional issues. Although I must admit, I believe that has already been established in other constitutional issue cases already.

I'm of the opinion that in law, citizenship and nationality is a major, yet overlooked factor with regard to constitutional issues. And since citizenship for the most part, is a voluntary condition, one cannot claim that he has been "harmed" by the government one is a citizen to if one has "consented" to that government.

Specifically, the people of the original Republics were not "citizens of the United States" (federal government), and had constitutional protections with citizenship to their respective Republic. By becoming federal citizens however, people have turned their backs to their Republic and the constitutional protections that went with it. Learn more at; www.pacinlaw.org

Once a federal citizen, by tacit consent, one is "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" of the federal government. Unprecedented prior to the 14th Amendment. Therein is why Americans who are 14th Amendment federal citizens, subjects of the federal government, have no constitutional protection, "no standing" in law on constitutional issues.

"These three kinds of law of nations, the voluntary, the conventional, and the customary, together constitute the positive law of nations. For they all proceed from the will of nations, - the voluntary from their presumed consent, the conventional from the express consent, and the customary from tacit consent: and as there can be no other mode of deducing any law from the will of nations, there are only these three kinds of positive law of nations."----Vattel - Law of Nations

"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and the State wherein they reside."---Amendment XIV, Section 1.

This is the nature of federal citizenship under the Fourteenth Amendment as stated by the Supreme Court of the United States: “It is the natural consequence of a citizenship [92 U.S. 542, 551] which owes allegiance to two sovereignties, and claims protection from both. The citizen cannot complain, because he has voluntarily submitted himself to such a form of government. He owes allegiance to the two departments, so to speak, and within their respective spheres must pay the penalties which each exacts for disobedience to its laws.” U.S. v. Cruikshank, 92 U.S. 542 (1875)

"The federal citizen cannot complain, because he has voluntarily submitted himself to such a form of government", in defiance of his Republic.

With regard to one's Oath to protect and defend the Constitution; isn't one already in defiance of the Constitution by being a federal citizen in the first place, all considered?

Mike

My explanation of the conspiracy:

I've tried to boil it down to simplify explaining it to this; It's a matter of citizenship and nationality in law. If you were a French citizen say, you'd be subject to the French government. Same for German, Spanish, South African, Argentina, etc., you get the idea. A citizen is a subject to a specific government. No different for a US citizen. (If you've noticed, they're attempting to establish a federal or European Union citizenship in Europe. That's the New World Order, it was started in the New World, America.)

However it gets confusing on this, the US part. Originally a Citizen of one of the separate republic nations was considered a uS Citizen after the formation of the confederation of united States was instituted. The government of the confederation of separate nation States, the federal government, was not a nation in law. The separate republics remained separate and independent sovereign nations in law after the confederation of nations or States. The people remained Citizens of their respective republic. Much like the people of EU countries still are.

That all changed following the conquering of the southern States (actually all the States) by the so-called federal government in the so-called "Civil War." It was not a civil war by definition, as the States were, and are, in fact separate nations in law. Calling it the Civil War is propaganda and part of the conspiracy.

If you think about it; the confederation (the US Constitution, US Congress, US President) would have dissolved once the southern States seceded as it was a voluntary union. Lincoln and the mainly republican Congress went rouge and committed a coup, forcing States back into the then involuntary Union or federation. Not a confederation or voluntary Union anymore. The federal government has been a criminal enterprise ever since. Except in law, "Might is Right", under certain circumstances. The federal government was "reconstructed" as the organic or original US Constitution was superseded (essentially re-written) by all Amendments following the first ten.

Following the 14th Amendment, citizen of the United States means citizen of the federal government, or federal citizenship. US nationality. No longer citizen and national of ones respective republic nation. It's claimed to be "dual citizenship", but one can only be loyal or a subject to one, and federal is now primary. Major upset under the law, but most don't realize.

Along with that, the political system of now federal citizens is a national democracy. Due to the change of citizenship of most all Americans, from respective State republic, to unconstitutional (de facto) federal.

Most Americans (for several generations) are federal citizens and have absolutely no idea of what that means under the law, because they don't understand the original republic. Thanks to federalized (national monopoly) education following the so-called "Civil War." The victors write the history, and control the education. As well as the media. After that war, the "Reconstruction" has been done gradually so as not to awaken the masses. And seems to be in the final phase of which all other democracies in history have succumbed, totalitarian government or dictatorship. The organic US Constitution has been defunct for 143 years. None of us can say we have not observed that to be true. So it's not even possible to restore the republic by participation in THEIR political system. A political system that was designed to destroy the republic in the first place.

PAC believes the organic US Constitution, and the several but separate republics and their constitutions still exist in law because they were not repealed. They are merely vacant as all Americans are federal citizens now, and have been for 143 years.

I highly recommend reading LB Bork's "The Red Amendment". He's not the only one to do research and write on the topic, but his book really pulled all the puzzle pieces together for me. It took me about 6 moths to get through it to where I understood it. www.pacinlaw.org

Just adhere to the Constitution.

For The People!

Like perjury , when you swear to tell the truth in a court of law, breaking your oath in office should be a crime and punishable by removal from office and fines/jail time.

First, thank you for undertaking this effort! The time has come for all American patriots to stand for our nation and the Constitution. In just a qiick reading of the Constitution--I found number of violations that have occured in recent years.I asked others, "Is no one going to take legal action in the citizens' behalf?" George Washington answered back,"--its only keepers, the people."

Should not be necessary but apparantly is

A simple examination of the oath of office laws shows it is a criminal offense to violate oath of office, not a civil offense. The courts will therefore reject this not because it is wrong but because it is not a criminal complaint. Moreover, the suit does not describe any actual violation of oath of office. There has been such a violation, the refusal of Congress to call an Article V Convention. As shown at www.foavc.org 49 states have submitted over 700 applications for a convention call. The Constitution requires a call when 34 states submit 34 applications.

You will also read at the site about the two federal lawsuits filed regarding this fact. In the second lawsuit the government admitted it was a criminal violation of law, that is, violation of oath of office, not to call.

In July, 2011 based on these facts, a criminal complaint of violation of oath of office was filed with the U.S. Attorney in Georgia. That complaint has already passed review regarding validity by the government and is currently awaiting disposition in Washington DC. Within a few weeks this issue will be known and obviously will resolve this meaningless civil suit before it is even filed.

I took an oath as a military member and I understand the constitution is written in stone and is not a living document as the liberal judges believe. Not only have our federal representitives abandonded the constitution but half of the supreme court judges think it is OK to use internationl law to make rulings that for our nation. They have lost their moral(christian) compas and by so doing have become both despots and models for the liberal lower courts to ignore the constitution. Our elected officals in Cal. have no knowlege of the constitution as their most recent law passed making it illegal to carry an unloaded gun in public and even transporting it thru a school zone can result in 5 yrs prison time. So much for the 2nd amendment!

i support the oath accountability civil action.

Re: the oath-keeping in VA that obligates the initiation of a cascading "Constitutional.Reset"

Please pray for me, Russell Davis. Also for VA Gov.
