Just out of curiosity, doesn't it strike anyone else as medieval that we require presidents-elect to swear on anything?
I mean, why not dredge up Hamlet's father's spirit and have him urge them to "swear by his sword"?
Let's make it fun at least and make trial by ordeal part of the swearing in process. Would scare away those who aren't sincere about the job, anyway. Would be great television too.
In defense of humans
Lay down your power trip
Stop toying with emotions and relationships
Cause you, you don't rise when people fall
