God in the Declaration of Independence: Right to a Job

For those looking for God in Our America's Founding Fathers' plan for Us, the Declaration of Independence makes the government the security  of CREATOR - given rights  to survive and seek thriving , happiness , Life, Liberty and pursuit of Happiness .

The purpose of government in America : "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.- That to _secure_ these rights, Governments are instituted among Men , deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,..."

Large Democratic field: People's convention historically democratic, small "d' ; Democratic Party Pluralism , E Pluribus Unum: it's on the money .

Horace :" Now let us get a few more to drop and announce for a senate run."

Many Dems running know they won't win, but they can start their reelection campaign early and express their constituents' sharp disapproval of the Republican Prez.

That so many are running is a good sign that professional politicians sense that the Republican President can be beaten

 Some are running for Vice President .
Some for the Senate .

Yes it's like a rolling year long People's convention really historically democratic , small "d." Democratic Party Pluralism , E Pluribus Unum: it's on the money .

Relation implication and universal quantifier ; Reductio ad absurdum

Wikipedia; Formal logic

"There is a big difference between the kinds of formulas seen in traditional term logic and the predicate calculus that is the fundamental advance of modern logic. The formula A(P,Q) (all Ps are Qs) of traditional logic corresponds to the more complex formula xPxQx{\displaystyle \forall x(P(x)\rightarrow Q(x))} in predicate logic, involving the logical connectives for universal quantification and implication rather than just the predicate letter A and using variable arguments PxP(x) where traditional logic uses just the term letter P. With the complexity comes power, and the advent of the predicate calculus inaugurated revolutionary growth of the subject.

Inference is not to be confused with implication. An implication is a sentence of the form 'If p then q', and can be true or false.  The Stoic logician Philo of Megara was the first to define the truth conditions of such an implication: false only when the antecedent p is true and the consequent q is false, in all other cases true. An inference, on the other hand, consists of two separately asserted propositions of the form 'p therefore q'. An inference is not true or false, but valid or invalid. However, there is a connection between implication and inference, as follows: if the implication 'if p then q' is true, the inference 'p therefore q' is valid. This was given an apparently paradoxical formulation by Philo, who said that the implication 'if it is day, it is night' is true only at night, so the inference 'it is day, therefore it is night' is valid in the night, but not in the day.
The theory of inference (or 'consequences') was systematically developed in medieval times by logicians such as William of Ockhamand Walter Burley. It is uniquely medieval, though it has its origins in Aristotle's Topics and BoethiusDe Syllogismis hypotheticis. This is why many terms in logic are Latin. For example, the rule that licenses the move from the implication 'if p then q' plus the assertion of its antecedent p, to the assertion of the consequent q is known as modus ponens(or 'mode of positing'). Its Latin formulation is 'Posito antecedente ponitur consequens'. The Latin formulations of many other rules such as 'ex falso quodlibet' (anything follows from a falsehood), 'reductio ad absurdum' (disproof by showing the consequence is absurd) also date from this period."

Capitalism weaponizes scientific advances

Capitalism weaponizes scientific advances , including Einstein underlying nuclear weapons, the absolute most dangerous threat of human species extinction . His formula revealed how much force is released by splitting atoms .

In the big picture, he is something of a Sorcerer's Apprentice, who unleashed powers that got out of his control. 

Global warming is capitalism, Western Civilization,  burning too much. Evidently, the Greek gods were prophetic in branding Prometheus a Sorcerer's Apprentice.

Obama's dark skin and white skin color privilege

Barack Obama's mother was white , and he was raised by white people. Is he white or Black ?

There is a sense in which Obama was raised white but became Black by learning and moving to   Black people later in life.

Importantly, Obama is brown skinned ! He can't be white. It doesn't work both ways in the American system. Light skinned people can be Black, but dark skinned people can't be white. This asymmetry is the crux of the white supremacy here.
