Your thinking is too ridged.

Esoteric: Before existentialism people thought essence preceded existence, but existentialism argued existence precedes essence ergo the ancient Greeks and our founding fathers were political scientists defined by what they studied, knew and did!!

The proposition that existence precedes essence (French: l'existence précède l'essence) is a central claim of existentialism, which reverses the traditional philosophical view that the essence (the nature) of a thing is more fundamental and immutable than its existence (the mere fact of its being).

"Among their knowledge was knowledge of political science."
That's pretty good, considering the field wouldn't begin for another 75 years.
