The obvious answer. “I do solemnly swear 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. So help me God.”

I still ask myself why would ANY illegal want amnesty? They get all the benefits of citizenship, more than a citizen, with none of the responsibilities.

Tyranny:
: cruel and unfair treatment by people with power over others
: a government in which all power belongs to one person
