LOL

You are telling me the house of representatives search engine for the United States code is not searhcing the U S Code?

Yes. It's searching their entire site. The entire site is not the US Code.

The US Code starts with Title 1, Section 1 and goes all the way to Title 50, Subchapter 7.

Nowhere is the Declaration of Independence in any on those sections.

While the law (US Code) may be based on all those other documents on their site, those documents themselves are not part of the US Code.

It is true that the Declaration of Independence has no Title or section number. And nowhere is it written into ANY title or section. But, it is still a part of the US code as a PREAMBLE to the USC, and considered one of the Four Pillars of the Constitution . But this discussion is going to lead me down to my local library to do some actual book research because I do not trust some of the links which have been provided here, including the Cornell U site.
