Whatever happened to — “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, ... “

I'm confused, I know it's late and all.

Where does that appear in the Constitution?

You said — “Where does that appear in the Constitution?”

Now, come on..., you’re being plainly stupid here. The act doesn’t go over very well. Don’t act like an idiot (although you may be one, but I don’t know that... LOL!).

I’ve already stated, very clearly that it’s the first few sentences in our country’s first founding and official document, called the Declaration of Independence, which states the case for forming a new government because of the misgovernment of the former one that they were under.

And they set out to set up the standard by which *no government* could “grant” or “take away” certain rights — thereby being unalienable and solely granted by our Creator God. They then set up the document which would lay out the means of enforcing those things that they had already stated in the Declaration of Independence and protect those specifically stated rights, which they said were unalienable and which the government they were forming was designed to protect.

So, you’re acting like a total idiot who has lost their mind and has a case of amnesia and are destined for the insane asylum or else a nursing home because of a case of Alzheimers...
