That said, one can take the position that all inalienable rights of rich-white-men are in fact contained in the Constitution (explicitly or implicitly), but they are a subset of the universe of rights contained therein, and due process of law (which seems an alienable right by definition, since it can be waived by the posessor) isn't one of them.

I took your original statement as a statement that the unalienable rights referenced in the Declaration are not spelled out in the Constitution, obviously a different statement. All we know about the Declaration's unalienable rights in the Declaration is that among them are life, liberty, and the pursuit of hapiness. Aren't we talking about life and liberty here?
That having been said, what did you mean - that the RWM Unalienable Rights are a subset of Constitutional Rights, overlap partially with Constitutional Rights, or are wholy separate from Constitutional Rights?
