One cannot control governments by the implementations of laws. That naive notion exists today as a holdover from the prior old Puritan order. Instead, as absurd as it might sound, one can only control governments by holding them to their consciences.
Think back to Socrates and the way he never argued from the viewpoint of a platform. He never elaborated towards the mind and the law, but he forever narrowed and defined towards the soul, the conscience, or what many like to refer to as the heart. In this way, Socrates along with Plato and Aristotle following after him were all instrumental in establishing a new order.
In Texas, order first had to be established before laws implemented. Those weak minded civilized people living within the old Puritan order often referred to this as the "old west." Yet, the only reason for the implementation of laws, if one would just calmly relax to think about it, was for the advancement of the order. There is no such process as limiting government to only the maintenance of the existing social order as that would amount to the same type of system as a long suffering, never changing dynasty within a state of stasis.
As we can all see clearly today, law for the sake of law is no better than utter chaos. The U.S. Constitution came about not primarily, meaning it alone has no set definition, but as a result of a new order established by our Founders within The Declaration of Independence. They managed to advance the already existing order that was handed down to them from the ancient Greeks by the use of the scientific method of natural law.
This is an extremely subtle point.
Again, our Founders felt that they had arrived at another type of truth when they utilized the metaphysical method of natural law. This new established order by them worked to abolish all the prior orders established by the traditions of legal precedence including the prior old Puritan one. Once again, they also abolished the old Puritan order as well. This new order established by our Founders as a natural law within the formal document of The Declaration of Independence, with this being our divorce from tyranny, establishes for the disadvantaged people a new formal culture to live by with this being our Civil Purpose.
They then remarried us to a more perfect Union by the creation of the U.S. Constitution meaning that neither it nor The Declaration of Independence should ever be considered mutually exclusive of the other.
