The '''Oath of Office''' is the phrase which must be recited by presidents-elect in the United States in order for them to ascend to the [[President of the United States of America|Office of the Presidency]]. This powerful phrase is required specifically by the [[Constitution of the United States]] (Article II Section 1) and reads<blockquote><i>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.</i></blockquote>
The oath is customarily followed by the phrase "so help me God," and is usually recited with one hand on the [[Bible]].
