6. To listen, consulting our communities constantly and innovatively

 
 

7. To treat political opponents with courtesy and respect, challenging them when we believe they are wrong, and agreeing with them when we believe they are right.

 
 

8. To resist abuses of power and patronage and promote democracy at every level.
