I Will Support and Defend the Constitution....

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Each president of the United States recites the oath of office in accordance with Article II, Section I of the U.S. Constitution. As America's first president, George Washington was the first to proclaim these words on April 30, 1789, on the balcony of Federal Hall in New York City.

President Jefferson Visits Fayetteville DAR

The third president of the United States made a surprise visit to the James Waldrop Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution this week in Fayetteville, Georgia. President Thomas Jefferson, portrayed by Tom Robinson, took the ladies back in time to the writing of the Declaration of Independence and to the time of his Presidency.

Thomas Jefferson was not known for his public speaking, but was known for his writings. His most prominent document was his draft of the Declaration of Independence. Jefferson, one of five men who were selected by the Continental Congress in 1776 to draft the document to declare the colonies' independence from England, is considered one of the principal authors of this historic document. The final vote for independence came on July 4, 1776.

Thomas Jefferson first ran for president against John Adams in 1797. Adams won the election and Jefferson became the Vice President. At that early time in our country's history, the candidate who did not win the Presidential election became the 2nd in command.

In 1801, Jefferson successfully won his bid for president and served his country in that role for eight years. Jefferson fulfilled his dream to live to the 50th anniversary of the United States declaration and died on July 4, 1826.

Electoral College and Political Party Votes

The Constitution neither prohibits nor encourages that the President and the Vice President be
from the same party. They are voted on separately in the Electoral College; so theoretically, the
President and Vice President could be from different parties.

This Constitution Moment brought to you by the James Waldrop Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution in Fayetteville, Georgia.
