Incompetent U.S. District Judges

The Declaration of Independence is not part of the Constitution. It's purpose was to list grievances against the Crown of England to justify the British American Colonies for declaring independence from England.

Almost daily, in the headlines we see how certain elements of our society rely upon hearsay and misconceptions in their daily lives. Demagogues have an iron grip on the minds of many Americans who are either incapable, or ill disposed to discovering what is law and what is not. We should be appalled that a Federal District Judge, Arenda L. Wright, makes absurd statements without researching the law.

NBC has long gotten a pass for erroneous telecasting, sometimes deliberate, especially when Brian Williams was news anchor, but a U.S. District Judge cannot be given a pass.  No law says that all men in the U.S. are created equal. In fact, the phrase, "all men" does not appear in the Constitution.  Equal creation, but not cradle to grave egalitarianism (as proposed by Marxism), was merely a "proposition" in the Declaration of Independence, but it is not a part of the Constitution. Abraham Lincoln in his Gettysburg Address reiterated the “proposition,” but he never said it was the law of the land, or anything other than a proposition.

Another popular misconception about our Constitution is that titles of nobility are outlawed. Not true. That was another "proposition," by Congress in 1813, but it was never ratified by more than 26 of the states.
