The capital ‘T’ in the word ‘That’ should end any controversy. It is the beginning of a new sentence.
“The capital ‘T’ in the word ‘That’ should end any controversy. It is the beginning of a new sentence.”
Bingo!
Also, the presence of the word “and” before “the Pursuit of Happiness” indicates the end of a list of discrete items. It would make no sense to put “and” after the second item in a list of four items.
Talk about grasping at straws!
And isn’t it the liberals who always say that the Declaration of Independence is not a governing document? It’s disingenuous of them to appeal to it to justify big government. But then, disingenuousness is the very foundation of liberalism.
Not necessarily, since there's another capital 'T" in the word 'That' found later in the same sentence.
Both 'Thats' follow a dash, a punctuation mark seldom used today, so I'm unclear what it's supposed to mean.
However, the second 'That' and its dash are preceded by a comma, and to my mind if the first 'That' was intended to also be part of the same sentence, it would also be preceded by a comma.
A quick look at the Declaration will show clearly that capital letters are used a lot more frequently and apparently randomly than they are today.
It's always important that these phrases are in context.
Besides the capitalization, there’s an extended space between the words which also indicates the start of a new sentence. This “historian” is grasping at straws and coming off as a joke.
