Folks seem to confuse the "Declaration of Independence" with the "Constitution" of the United States! The Constitution is a set of laws that "law"yers and judges interpret , manipulate, and amend to the point that today you lost your "independence" and became "dependent" on a Government to run your lives! Right back where you started from! Pretty "sad" state of affairs if ya ask me, which you didn't! Tough! Later, Mike M.
