WHAT IS A OATH? WHAT DOES IT IMPLY??

Every structure has a foundation.  Without that foundation nothing can stand.  A house built upon rock will with stand.  A house built upon the sand will crumble with the winds and rising tides. 

There is a cornerstone to every structure.  Our's is the people.  It is our freedom and liberty to live as we see fit.  Not as others deem we do. 

WHAT IS A OATH??  WHAT DOES IT IMPLY?  

A oath is a promise.  

It implies that you will stand on the oath as it is your reason for existing. It's your promise to a belief which has stood and stands all time.   It's a oath to protect , and never falter from whatever that oath is too. A oath is a serious obligation. 

OATH-

1. a. A solemn, formal declaration or promise to fulfill a pledge, oftern calling on God, a god, or a                 sacred object as witness. 

    b. The words or formula of such a declaration or promise.

    c. Something declared or promised

2.  An irreverent or blasphemous use of the name of God or something held sacred. 

The oath to be taken by the president on first entering office is specified in Article II, Section 1, of 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.

I think the part of this that stands out the most is the word ABILITY.  

I firmly believe that with any task that if you lack the ability, fortitude, prudence, to do anything related to a oath you took, one should step down or away from the task at hand.  Or better yet not have taken the oath in the first place.   

The ability to fulfill a oath is the very strength of what ever is at hand or at task.  When something is unfulfilled,  something is not done,  the foundation of that structure will crumble and fall.  It's the nature of life. 

Ability---  1.  possession of the means or skill to do something.
                  "the manager had lost his ability to motivate the players"

              2.  talent, skill, or proficiency in a particular area.
                   "a man of exceptional ability"


If you don't stand, no one will stand for you.  But when you stand, others will stand with you.  And when many stand, the voice of many can be heard.  However, if you are complacent within the comforts of what you do not think can fall, you are doomed to crumble as if your house is built upon sand. 


Without hope there is no strength.  Without strength one cannot stand.  Without leadership there is no motivation to stand.  Without standing there is no purpose. And without purpose, there is no existence of liberty or will.
