A Wh**ever Moment: Clinton Confuses Constitution With Declaration of Independence in Gun Pitch

Constitution, Declaration of Independence ... wh**ever.

That seemed to be Hillary Clinton’s take on the nation’s two most important documents during an interview Wednesday, as she confused the texts in making the case for more gun laws.

The Democratic p**********l front-runner mistakenly cited a “constitutional right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” during the interview with host Steve Harvey.

“We’ve got to say to the gun lobby, you know what, there is a constitutional right for people to own guns, but there’s also a constitutional right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness that enables us to have a safe country where we are able to protect our children and others from this senseless gun violence,” she said.

Harvey offered her an approving “absolutely.”

But the famous “life, liberty” line is, of course, from the Preamble to the Declaration of Independence, not the Constitution. It says: “We hold these t***hs 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.”

The Democratic p**********l front-runner endured some ribbing on Twitter for the slip.

In point of fact... if you believe that there is any legal right at all in this country to "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" they can only be guaranteed by the Constitution.

The Declaration of Independence has no force of law. It was a declaration of war, not law.

In the eleven years between Independence and the Constitution the preferred expression of "pursuit of happiness" had evolved so that "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" became more commonly expressed as "life, liberty and property." Sure the original term was more mellifluous, but Jefferson was not part of the Constitutional convention, so we did not have benefit of his pen.

But those rights are in fact Constitutional Rights. She may have used the Declaration's turn of phrase, but what she said was absolutely true.

The problem is Hillary does not believe, or understand those words. - "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness"/property.
She just used them.
BTW; She has been collecting a whole lot of "property" since becoming a politician.

HistorianDude

Oh?

Why do you say that?

eagleye13 Loc: Fl

Something in common with all socialists.
I would have to write a book; although there are already many.
Her whole being. Her actions. Her history.
Then add all the corruption.

HistorianDude

Okay... vague generalities don't help.

Can you give a specific example of where she did not understand the meaning of the words "life," "liberty" or "the pursuit of happiness/property"?

It is her whole being. Her hypocrisy. Self aggrandizement. The lying.

The taking away of all these peoples "pursuit of happiness"

This is just the short list, The long list will blow your socks and jocks off.

I've investigated a lot of crimes over the last 32 years, including murders. Any criminal investigator with the slightest bit of experience and training could easily see (and most have seen) the many flaws, holes and gaps in the so-called Vince Foster "murder" investigation by, of all the fede...ral law enforcement agencies, the Park Police. But, when one does a little more checking into the past of Bill and Hillary Clinton, they will find a long path of former friends, associates and business partners of the Clinton's who have died young and under mysterious circumstances. The following is a partial list of those whose blood cries out for justice.

Kevin Ives and Don Henry: Died August 1987. Reportedly, they had stumbled upon the Arkansas Mena Drug Operation (many stories and articles have been written about Clinton's affiliation with the Mena Mafia) It was first reported that these two young boys died as a result of falling asleep on a railroad track. It was later revealed that Ives had received a crushed skull prior to being placed on the tracks and Henry had been stabbed to death. The following 7 deaths were all of people who reportedly had knowledge and information concerning the mysterious, unsolved murders of Kevin Ives and Don Henry:
1.Keith Coney:died July 1988 from injuries sustained from a motorcycle accident. Some reports indicated that he was being chased by an unidentified vehicle.
2.Keith McKaskle: died Nov. 1988 from multiple stab wounds
3.Greg Collins: died Jan. 1989 from a gunshot wound to the head. No suspect was ever found.
4.Jeff Rhodes: died April 1989 from a gunshot wound to the head. His body was burned and thrown in a dumpster.
5.James Milam: died 1989. His death was ruled as being from natural causes, until his head was later recovered from a trash bin!
6.Richard Winters: died July 1990 from injuries sustained during a robbery attempt. He was a suspect in the death of Kevin Ives and Don Henry. Some reports claim the robbery was only a setup.
7.Jordan Kettleson: died June 1990. He died from gunshot wounds and was found sitting in his truck.
•Suzanne Coleman: died when Clinton served as Arkansas Attorney General. She was alleged to have been "romantically" involved with Clinton. Although she died from a gunshot to the back of her head, the death was ruled a suicide! She was pregnant at the time of her death.
•Alan Sandorf:died 1991. Sandorf was an employee of NSA (National Security Agency). He was reportedly providing info. to Danny Casolaro, who was an independent reporter investigating the INSLAW case (INSLAW involved Justice Dept. theft, cover-ups, missing records, fraud and gov. corruption of all sorts) Sandorf's body was found in the back seat of a car at the Washington National Airport.
•Dennis Eisman: shot to death in 1991. Eisman was an attorney, who was also working on the INSLAW case.
•Danny Casolaro: found dead in a Virginia motel room in 1992. His arms had been slashed multiple times. Casolaro was an independent investigative reporter who had extensive files and information on the INSLAW case against the Justice Dept. and other "high ranking" government officials. Even though his body was found, his files and documentations were said to have never been located!
•Victor Raiser II: died in 1992 from an unexplained airplane crash. He was co-chairman of the "Clinton for President" campaign. Montgomery Raiser, his son, also involved with the Clinton campaign was k**led in the plane crash with his father and 5 other people.
•Ian Spiro: died in 1992. His wife and 3 children were found murdered in their home. They had been shot to death (execution style) Several days later Spiro's body was found in the Borego Desert. His autopsy revealed the cause of death as cyanide poisoning. He held files and evidence to produce before a grand jury in the INSLAW proceedings.

Again... vague generalities. Do you not understand that they are neither evidence nor argument?


The US crude death rate is 8 people per thousand per year. This means that any of us who know 100 people should expect one of them to die pretty much every year. If we extend to our professional and personal networks, the average American is connected to about 2,500 people, meaning abut 20 people in our networks will die every year.

If we live to be 50 years old, then we are connected to 1,000 people who have died.

Conclusion: If we are inspired to make the effort, we can create a nearly identical list for any living person. Even you.
