Was the Declaration of Independence more important then the constitution?

The declaration of Independence was essentially the Continental Congress telling Britain they didn't want to be involved with them anymore. It's arguable that the Declaration of Independence was more important as it was the foundation for American independence and freedom, without which the Constitution wouldn't exist. However, the Declaration of Independence gave no system of government. Without the Constitution, the U.S. as we know it might not exist, or it might be very different, and quite possibly much worse.

Is trial by jury in the US Constitution outdated?
