The President Isn’t the Only One Who Takes an Oath of Office
L
ike many people, I have been troubled by the state of politics in our country. Disagreements over policy or governing philosophy have been replaced, in part, by raw anger and even hatred. By the time you read this article, the presidential election will likely be over and we will either be preparing for a new president or four more years of the current administration. Regardless of who is elected president, he will recite the same oath that every commissioned officer in the United States military does. It is the same oath that I recited in 1993 when I was commissioned as a Second Lieutenant in the Marine Corps and it will be the same oath that future presidents, generals, and ensigns will give. What I find most remarkable about this oath is the fact that our presidents and military officers swear loyalty to a document. They promise to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States.” The commitment of our officers and presidents isn’t to the president, a monarch, a party, or even the people of the United States. They swear allegiance to a piece of paper; to the very idea of America. I am optimistic that years from now, we will be able to collectively look back at this time in our history with a shrug and a sigh knowing that we, as Americans, are more alike than different. And, that the diversity in our society is part of what makes our country great. In the meantime, it is heartening to know that the quarter of a million commissioned officers in our military will continue to serve the constitution and not one man, regardless of his party.
