We hold these truths to be self-evident,
Quote:
When in the course of human Events, it becomes necessary for one People to dissolve the Political Bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the Powers of the Earth, the separate and equal Station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent Respect to the Opinions of Mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the Separation
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.

Do you think POTUS just forgot,, or the guy manning the teleprompter mis-typed his speech???
Given it is the 2nd second sentence in the DoI and they are rather long, with a lot of big words, using sentence structure that is several hundred years old???
Watch closely at .54 sec into his closing,, he mis-quotes the DoI...
He must be embarrassed about his mis-speak,, Nice smile...

I fear not. For several decades now, the Left has been working very hard to replace the rights enumerated by the Founders and identified as being derived from God, with rights that emanate from Man, specifically, from the Courts. Like the Soviets, the Left wants the State to occupy the place in society that was once held by God.

Considering the pause at :58...as he was collecting his thoughts...I think it may have been on purpose. Every learned adult..especially those in politics...know that phrase. It was intentional. That is our President.

FWIW, I think it's also significant that BHO referenced the very declaration which led to the eventual founding of our Constitution, in that particular forum.
Most politicians and "the new normal" of US immigrant are a perfect match; the former supporting operation increasingly out of Constitutional guidelines and the latter having reason to support a fundamental reformation within the US.

IIRC, he stutters and has mini-vapor locks the couple of times he has dared say "Jesus Christ" during an interview. Why would a church goin' prez be embarrased about saying that?

He probably still thinks that he was quoting Dr. MLK, Jr.
