I would like atheists to just not believe in a higher force.
The constant fucking they do to everything is getting annoying already.

US Constitution said:
Before he enter on the Execution of his Office, he shall take the following Oath or Affirmation:

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) 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."
The "So help me God" part is a tradition. Personally, I think that it should change based on the beliefs of the oath-taker, what you append, and whether you swear on a Bible, Qur'an, or an HP Lovecraft book. It just stands to reason an oath would carry more weight to someone/something if they're swearing to someone they actually believe in.
