That’s nice and all, but almost impossible to agree on what that means. As a citizen, I submit that their oath to the Constitution must also include that their purpose (their Constitutional purpose) while in office is to satisfy the six (or seven) objectives in the Preamble, and my expectations are that they will use best practice-based principles to meet that purpose. In addition, I want the candidates that I vote for to acknowledge that as long as corporations are persons and money is speech, our democracy will continue its backslide into autocracy.
