In its original sense, a pledge is an obligation which is to be responsible to pay money owed on certain written documents that were executed under seal. Currently, obligation is used in reference to anything that an individual is required to do because of a promise, vow, oath, contract or law.
It refers to a legal or moral duty that an individual can be forced to perform or penalised for neglecting to perform. This is why our political leaders can and will never make a pledge of allegiance to the native St. Maarten/St. Martin people.
Every pledge has three parts: two separate parties, a debt or obligation, and a contract of pledge. The St. Maarten Nation Building Foundation (SNBF) and the Patriot Miguel Arrindell and Leopold James made a pledge of allegiance to all native St. Maarten/St. Martin people of heritage. Our pledge of allegiance is a promise that we will honour the native St. Maarten/St. Martin people of heritage. We believe charity, which is a universal principle in every country in this world, begins at home. But government on both sides of the island have made St. Maarten/St. Martin an exception to the rule. That act is what you call betrayal.
Our government's first priority is to fulfil all illegal and legal immigrants' needs, but the native St. Maarten/St. Martin people are not important and the facts are: they simply just do not care. Christ said it best: judge a man by his actions. Betrayal is to deliver to an enemy by treachery or to desert your own native people, especially in time of need. (The government on both sides of the island is leading the native people of St. Maarten/St. Martin to their destruction by compromising their rights, to fulfil the interest of the illegal and legal immigrants.)
Before we make our pledge to our fellow patriots, you must understand why. It is clear that the entire Parliament of Dutch St. Maarten and government of St. Maarten, including all political parties that are part of these entities, have no interest in the native St. Maarten people. Their actions are saying that they have no choice but to betray the native St. Maarten/St. Martin people, because our numbers as voters are no use to them. What you are seeing is a clear display of betrayal by your own native St. Maarten people who are in government; the same is exactly so on the French side of the island.
Therefore now that the facts have been established, it is up to all native St. Maarten/St. Martin people of heritage to stop voting for people who sold you out for illegal and legal immigrants. If you continue to vote for political parties that are betraying you, then you have also betrayed yourself. The same goes to the native people of St. Martin, who will be voting on the French side of the island. The conclusion and solution is to start supporting the St. Maarten Nation Building Foundation (SNBF).Our pledge of allegiance to the people of St. Maarten/St. Martin heritage is for all Patriots of St. Maarten/St. Martin to learn by heart and please feel free to spread this pledge of allegiance using the social sites as Facebook and Twitter.
St. Maarten pledge of allegiance is as follows:
I promise to love all people of St. Maarten/St. Martin heritage and to promote and uphold our culture and our values.
My loyalty is to the native St. Maarten/St. Martin people first. We accept God almighty as our creator that gives us inalienable rights to be free and justice for all people from St. Maarten/St. Martin.
God bless the native people of St. Maarten/St. Martin
