love in politics.

I will commit to an ethic of love in my public and political life that advocates for the common good of all. Love is patient, kind, does not boast, does not envy, is not proud, does not dishonor others, is not self-seeking, is not easily angered, keeps no record of wrongs, does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. Love always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
