TREMENDOUS insight. Amazing how one word changes the meaning and interpretations. Makes me wonder what else we're missing.

One that I've noticed is the foundation of the US in the Declaration is not "life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness." The foundation of the United States is firstly TRUTH, as in "we hold the TRUTHS to be self-evident." Recognizing that would put the screws on today's "press".

And secondly, a belief in God as in "that all men are endowed by their Creator" meaning that all rights come from God, not government. Since the Democrats don't believe in God and literally voted Him out of their party, they by definition cannot embrace the premise of the nation's foundational document.

And the Preamble to the Constitution carries this forward when it refers to the "Blessings of Liberty," which would be endowed by their Creator.
