Amen. The Declaration is the ‘soul’, the Constitution the ‘body’.
The declaration was the exercise of natural rights that ultimately resulted in an attempt to build a federation of states that honored, respected and protected the natural rights of the citizens of those states that took the form of the constitution.
Where the constitution was fallible because of mans interpretation of it, the declaration was perfect in its intent and execution. It gave meaning to everything that followed and it reveals the lie in everything this nation has become. It will prove the inspiration to the future exercise of our natural rights.
