My core values would include:

* Belief that every individual has inherent worth.
* Belief that every individual is deeply connected (whether scientifically, religiously, or both) to every other individual and thing in the universe.
* Belief that every individual should have access to healthcare, education (including the arts), a job in a safe environment with a living wage, shelter, food and clothing, regardless of race, gender, religion, economic status, language, or sexual identity. This means everybody, including prisoners and undocumented immigrants--even war criminals like Cheney. Which leads me to...
* Belief that torturing and killing a person for any reason except self-defense is immoral and unethical, including wars and use of the death penalty.
* Belief that "the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice."
