“Oath of Office” 
for the Township level Public-Office of:
“Qualified Elector”.
Version: 3.

	I, the under-signed, do here-by solemnly Affirm, before all men, & before the Supreme-Judge of the Universe; that, to the best of my ability,  I sincerely do intend to Responsibly & Faithfully Perform the ancient Duties of a “Qualified Elector”, as Modernly, Reasonably, & Conscionably applied, in the “Township Jurisdiction” here-under specified.

1:	I solemnly affirm that the “End-Goal” of my participation in the below described “Township Jurisdiction”, is to Secure the “Peace” for Every Member of our Township.  

2:	I here-under recognize that “Fundamental American Constitutional Principles” clearly reveal that our true American Constitutional concept of “Federalism” is derived from our ancient Organic & Culturally Traditional Anglo/American Common-Law based “Principals” of “Maximum Reasonable De-Centralization of Governing Authority”;  all right on down to our own Very Small, easily controllable, & very Meaningfully Accountable “Township” Levels of Government.  In particular; I recognize, that, in  early America, & especially in the “New England” States, that “Responsibly Self-Governing” in these smaller “Township Jurisdictions”, was a very popularly-supported Tradition; & that, general American Constitutional-Law really does support these extremely De-Centralized manners of Self-Governing. 

3:	I here-under affirm my support of my belief, that, under our nation's more ancient European Tradition & History; the formation of, & participation in, these smaller & local “Township Jurisdictions”; provided what reputable Historians have recognized as being: “The Most Efficient Police System in Western Europe”; & that this was Only made Possible Because it worked to “Compel”, the Individual Members of these Responsibly-Self-Governing “Township Jurisdictions” to Assume the “Duties” of there-in “Self-Policing”, & of “Maintaining-the-Peace”. 

4:	I here-under Affirm my modern & further Support of my beliefs, that, these ancient “Townships” did Provide To All Out-Side Individuals & Organizations, a sort of “Collective Suretyship” or “Corporate Responsibility” for any & all Crimes or other wrong-doings that any of the Individual Members of these Townships might commit. 

5:	I recognize that I have a Duty to exercise Vigilance in “Keeping the Peace” in & surrounding my own “Household”; & that this Rule is Necessary so that the Burdens of “Keeping the Peace” in our Township me Distributed Equally amongst Each of the Electors/Members of our Town Council. 

6:	I recognize that I have a Duty to  do what I reasonably able to do, in assisting our Town Constable in performing his “ Community Care-Taking Functions”; & that this includes my assistance to him in Maintaining Regular & Adequate Supervision over, Each House & other Building in our Township's Jurisdiction; along also with the Roads and other Public-Utilities, all so-as-to Insure the Peace, Safety, & good Order here-in.  I further recognize my Duty to maintain “Open Lines of Communication” so that I may efficiently Communicate to our Town's Constable about Every Issue which I might reasonably suspect to be of a threat to these Ideals of Peace, Safety, & good Order. 

7:	I further recognize that I have a Duty to consistently Defer to & Respect the Separate & Sovereign Jurisdictions of each of my Neighboring Qualified-Electors;  & that if I do have any problem with any among them, that I should communicate such problem to our Town Constable, promptly. 

8:	I recognize that these “Townships” are usually geographically “Local” in their nature; but that they also can be based on “Private” or “Special” Voluntary-Associations, such as Religious, Fraternal, Political, or other Organizations. I recognize that I can only join One “Local Township” Jurisdiction, but that I can join as many “Private/Fraternal Township” Jurisdictions as I wish; & that in my text below, I indicate which of these jurisdictions is being invoked.  

9:	I here-under recognize & affirm, that, it would be a  good thing if All Americans Assumed these Same Duties of “Qualified Electors” & “Township Members”, as were assumed by the Individual Members of those more ancient English & European versions of these “Township” Communities.  
	As applied in general, Reasonable, & Conscience-bound manners; & by my signature on this document here-in below, I do modernly assume these same (above & below listed) ancient “Duties” of a “Township Member” & “Qualified Elector”.

10:	I Affirm my recognition, that, the Maintenance of a “Consensus” among Each Elector/Member of our “Town Council”, on every issue raised by any of us, is of “Critical-Importance”; & that, here-under,  I  have a Duty to make Sincere, Humble, Conscience-bound, & Vigilant Efforts to achieve “Consensus” on Every Issue which is raised by Any of the “Qualified Electors” in our regular “Town Council” meetings.
Further here-under; I recognize that I have a “Duty” to do Research, to Inform My-Self, & to Discuss with our Other Township-Members, All Concerns that I may have about How our “Duties” under these Ancient Principles-of-Law should be Applied Equally to All Elector/Members in our Township, including my-self.

11:	I recognize, that, this Consensus can be achieved in un-expected manners; for example, by our larger number of Township Members collectively Convincing the Elector raising his Concern, that his Issue is Not really Worthy of the formal Approval of our Town-Council.  I recognize that some people with basically Good-Hearts may be Laboring Under severe “Delusions” concerning How “Keeping the Peace” needs to be maintained & enforced in “Reasonable Manners”; & that these individuals will likely need to be indulged in “hi maintenance manners”, & “respectfully”; at least so long as it does not reasonably seem that they are purposefully attempting to disrupt or subvert the vital consensus-building process in our Township.  Since these Constitutional Common-Law Townships are required to Limit their Membership to approximately “Ten Members”, the achievement of this “Consensus”, in either direction, should be fairly Easy.  Common-Law Juries traditionally achieved the same result with Twelve Members. 

12:	One our First & Most Important of the Priorities in our Township, is to Build a Consensus-around “Who” we should Elect to our Leadership Position of “Town Constable”; & there-after How he should Represent our concerns to the many “Larger Jurisdictions” of Government which surround us.  As our Township's “Leader” & “Representative”, our “Town Constable” must be able to Exercise “Juris-Diction” by “Speaking Law” with the Un-Fractured & Clearly Delegated Authority of Every Elector in our Entire Township.  Anciently; it was a nasty “breach of good-faith”, for any township-member to publicly voice dissent from the public declarations of his town-constable. Such dissenting-opinions were to be voiced only in the more private confines of the formal township-meetings.  When the leader of the township speaks in the larger & more public communities, he absolutely must have the fully “Delegated Authority” of Each & Every Township Member. He can retract his statements later, if a township member convinces him that he should do so. But the discussion about whether or not he should later retract his words, needs to happen in the private-confines of each separate township-community-meeting. 
 
13: 	Except for the absolute most extreme cases, “Dissenting-Opinions” about the All Manners in which our Town-Constable is Exercising the Authority of His Office, should be Saved Until full & Formal Discussion of those views can be Fully Explored for their True Merits in the calm & Peaceful atmosphere of our Next “Town-Council Meeting”.  In particular; I affirm my Duty to vigilantly seek this Consensus  concerning when & how  our Town Constable should apply “Force”, under his Duty to “Keep the Peace” for the Members of our Township.  These Town-Council Meetings can be Scheduled More Quickly than normal, by our Town Constable; when-ever any Elector might declare that there is an “Emergency Need” to address a seriously pressing “Dissenting View”. A 24-hour time-frame might be “Reasonable” here.
 
14:	I comprehend & agree that our Town Constable may be subjected to a process of “Immediate Recall” (& Replacement) through the Consensus-Based “Veto Power” which is fully possessed by All of our approximately Ten Qualified-Electors.  I recognize here that, Any One of our Electors have the Right & Duty to Call for a “Vote of Confidence” in our Town Constable/Leader, At Any Time that any among us might feel so “Justified”; & that such individual may then & there propose that our Consensus should be Shifted to Recognize Another More-Qualified Person as our Town-Constable/Leader.

15:	I further comprehend & affirm, that, by placing this significant power in Each Elector, that this gives a “Meaningful Insurance” to Every Elector that our Township's Constable Will Behave in a “Reasonable Manner”.  However; I also fully comprehend, that, if I might act “Un-Reasonably” in exercising this very powerful “Took of Law” & “Veto Power”, or any other of my Rights as an Elector; that, the other Electors in our Township may develop their own Consensus, that, I, or any other Elector in our Township, should be Subjected to Scrutiny for possible & Un-Reasonable “Abuse of the Veto Power”; & that, here-under, I or any other Elector may Loose our “Qualified-Elector Status” & Membership in our Township. 

16:	I comprehend that some of our Electors may insist on Keeping our Town Constable “On A Short Leash”;  & that here-under, it may be best to tolerate & indulge their concerns extensively.  This would include even going so far as the “Writing of Scripts” for our Town Constable, so that the Consensus of our Town-Council's Ordinances might be Micro-Managed with Surgical-Precision, concerning any Statements which our Constable might make to the larger Public. While such situations would likely be rare, but our Respect for the “Due Process of Law” & the “Rules of the Common-Law” Require that such Powers be with-in the authority of the Town-Council which each Constable Represents.  

17:	I further affirm that my “Peace-Keeping Duty” is quite Dependant up-on my Active & Supportive Participation in insuring that Conscience-Bound “Justice” is Plentifully Available for All of the approximately “Ten Townships” which Comprise our “Precinct Jurisdiction” aka: “Hundred Court”.  Here-under; I affirm that, to the best of my reasonable capability, that, it is among my Highest Duties to Promote “Justice”; & this also beyond the boundaries of our local Township Jurisdiction, to also include our township's larger “Precinct Jurisdiction”.

18:	I further affirm that this Cause of “Justice” is entirely Dependent up-on “Truth” being made Available among our People.  This is true; because, as long ago settled in our Anglo/American Common-Law Traditions; & by its very nature; “Justice” can Only be Administered in Response to a “Complaint” from one or more “Real People”.  Such a Complaint Must Declare, that, another person has caused the “Peace” of the Community to be “Breached” or “Violated”.  Here-under; the “First Order of Business” in a Community, is to Discover the “Truth”, about whether or not there is sufficient “Evidence” to “Justify” any Complaint of any “Breach of the Peace”. 

19:	Here-under; I do solemnly affirm my Duty as a Qualified-Elector to make reasonably vigilant efforts to Attend all Court Sessions that I may be called to;  & that, if so summoned, I have a Duty to exercise vigilance in acting as a “Witness” by Actively “Inquiring” in-to the “Truth” concerning the Merits of what-ever Accusations may have been placed before our Court.  I further affirm here, my Duty, when so called; to Participate as One of Twelve “Jurors”; & there-by to form a Unanimous Consensus of the “Conscience of the Community”, concerning whether or not a traditionally recognizable “Breach of the Peace” has actually occurred. 

20:	I recognize that this Duty to Act as a Jurist, when so called, is Necessary for All Electors to Assume;  so that well-settled Principles of “Law” may be Reasonably & Unanimously Applied in “Justly Resolving” the Dispute.  Here-under; I affirm my Duty to vigilantly “Inquire” into the “Truth” of any “Facts” of any Matter which might be placed in Dispute before our Court; & that, in these instances, I & my fellow Electors/Jurists are free to vigilantly use all forms of modern Communication to Discover the objective “Truth”, all so that we might share it with our fellow Jurists, & there-by so that we might promptly secure our Twelve Jurist's “Unanimous Verdict”.  

21:	Here-under; I solemnly affirm, that, I will act as a “Witness” to the “Truth”, in All Matters which our Town Constable requests my services as a Witness, or as a “Jurist”, when-ever I am so summoned; & this all in pursuit of the liberal dispensation of conscience-bound “Justice” in & for our community.

22:	I also affirm my solemn respect for our traditional Anglo/American Concept of “Due Process of Law”, recognizable as a precise set of “Principles” which must be followed in scientifically precise manners; all of which are to be applied in a well-settled & specific Course of Step-By-Step Procedures, each step of which all twelve Jurors Must Unanimously Affirm to have been followed, in their own good conscience & reasonable manners;& this all before their Verdict can accurately be declared by themselves as being a “True Verdict”. Formal “Jury Verdict” documents, with all twelve jurist's signatures, & contact-data, should be constructed in these manners. 

23:	I comprehend that the above points are the “Minimal Duties” that must be assumed by All who seek to be recognized as “Qualified Electors”.  Yet I also comprehend that there are other more physical Duties of “Peace Keeping” (aka: “Law Enforcement”) which have traditionally also been required, in order for any man to “Qualify” as an “Elector”.  These Duties, applied modernly, require that all Electors be prepared to use “Fire-Arms”, (unless their Consciences Sincerely Voice Objections,) when-ever there exists “Probable Cause for Reasonable People to Believe that a Crime is Being Committed” with-in the boundaries of our Township's Jurisdiction.  

24:	I comprehend that these modern Duties also require that all Electors be prepared to Assist their Town-Constables & Precinct-level Justice-of-the- Peace Officers, in Investigating & Inquiring concerning Complaints of “Criminal Corruption” amongst People Occupying Powerful Corporate & Government Offices.  I recognize, that, this may require that I act as a “Witness” for my other Electors, or Town-Constable, or Justice-of-the-Peace, when-ever any of them has shown “Probable Cause to Form the Belief that a Crime has been Committed”, & when such Investigation or Inquiry appears to me to be Reasonably Related to the Crime that has actually been formally Signed & Filed in our Precinct-Level “Court-of-Justice”.  I recognize that I may here be called on to attend meetings with powerful corporate or government office-holders, as a “Witness”;  & that I may be asked to make or participate in phone-calls or phone-conferences, & in email or other internet based discussions, or to send letters, or participate in discovering Truth through other but similarly inquisitorial & investigative activities.  

25:	I comprehend, that, unless my Conscience Sincerely Voices Objections; that, I & other Electors may need to Assist our Township & Precinct level Officers, as Members of our local “Posse Comitatus” for our County Jurisdiction, in effecting the “Arrest” of Criminals, including some who may be powerfully influential.  Any such Arrest of Powerfully-Influential Individuals, will likely Not Occur, until After a “Trial” has been Conducted; all following “Due Process of Law”.  There-under is Required, that, the Accused Powerful Corporate or Government Official has been Given Full & Fair “Opportunity to Defend”, & After Twelve Qualified-Elector Jurists have Unanimously Found him “Guilty”; all based on the “Evidence” presented before the Court; all of which should clearly be set-forth in the “Court Record”, & in the “Arrest Warrant”, as time & opportunity might reasonably so allow. 

26:	I further recognize, that, there are “Powerfully Influential People” on this planet, who are Routinely Engaged in “Criminal Activities”; & that some of these might seek to cause a “Breach of the Peace” against one or more of the Qualified Electors in our “Township Jurisdiction”.  I here-under recognize & affirm, that, unless my Conscience Sincerely Voices Objections; that, all of this may require My Participation in Lawfully Organized & Strategically Engineered “Mass Marches”.  This may include Marches on Court-Buildings, City & County Office-Buildings, Newspaper-Offices, Television & Radio Stations, &/or Police or Sheriff's Headquarters & Prisons.  Precinct-Level Justices-of-the-Peace & our local Town Constables will be un-likely to approve such drastic actions; unless, the chances of successfully completing them, with-out blood-shed, are quite high.  As we gain more people signing these documents, our numbers will increase; & here-under, we will, eventually, have the numbers to complete any such well-engineered & non-violent mass-marches. 

27:	I recognize that my Duties here also include my making reasonably vigilant & good-faith efforts to Attend any & all “Town Meetings” which our Town Constable might call.

28:	I recognize that, regarding any & all Issues of concern which are related to my Household, & which I am not fully capable of resolving, that I have a Duty to communicate these concerns on up the chain-of-command, to our Town-Constable, so that he can exercise his larger Township-level jurisdiction, to assist me with the efficient maintenance of the Peace, Safety, & good Order in my Household.

29: 	I further Recognize that I have a Duty to our elected Town Constable, to promptly & vigilantly Obey all Commands & Directives that he may Order me to carry out; save only unless, in that instant, I am firmly convinced that such commands are “Un-Lawful” or “Un-Conscionable”.  In any such instances as this, I will Promptly Give fully adequate Explanation & Justification for my Refusal of his Command, before the other Qualified-Electors in our Township, at our next Township level Meeting.   I comprehend that any such Refusal could be grounds for my Loosing my “Qualified-Elector Status” in our Township.
