“All men are endowed …” is hard to argue with.

But, yeah … I think the framers thought about it … and it probably has some connection to previous law-charters (the Maga Carta, for one).

I don’t know the intricacies, but you don’t get to beat a man because he is in this country illegally.

How do you grant “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness to a friggin Prisoner Of War?
