I pledge allegiance to human rights. I pledge allegiance to the rights of same-sex couples to marry and adopt. I pledge allegiance to both the freedom of religion and the freedom from religion. I pledge allegiance to the right of all people to live free of aggressive war, and to the right of women to control their own lives in all aspects. I pledge allegiance to the right of all workers to labor in safe conditions and to be paid a living and rightful wage for their work.
I pledge allegiance and support to those who have little or nothing, because they are my brothers and sisters. I pledge allegiance to the right of all children to an equal and fine public education. I pledge allegiance to both the reality and the dream of truly equal opportunity regardless of race.
To those who share these goals, my unending support. To those who oppose them, my unending opposition.
But then, I'm an "issues voter"...

6. I often pledge, silently, to random values that I hold, |
|
during the mandatory morning pledge at work. I'll be happy to use your pledge!
Another "issues" voter heard from.

8. That's the "random" part, lol. |
|
The random pieces that present themselves to my fuzzy morning brain.
Whatever seems to be relevant to the moment; can change every day. ;)
