The American's Creed
I
believe in the United States of America as a government of the
people, by the people, for the people, whose just powers are derived
from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a Republic; a sovereign
Nation of many sovereign States: a perfect Union, one and
inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom,
equality, justice, and humanity for which American Patriots sacrificed
their lives and fortunes.
I,
therefore, believe it is my duty to my country to love it, to
support its Constitution; to obey its laws; to respect its flag;
and to defend it against all enemies.
– William Tyler Page
