I've never read the Portugal constitution, but I thought he was referring to that. I could be wrong.
Don't waste your time reading almost 300 articles with little use for your country. We don't have the right to happiness, we have the right to pursue fulfillment, we must give people equal opportunities and chances but we can't force them to be happy/fulfilled. I personally like our constitution even though I agree with scholars it has a slightly larger socialist/left wing connotation, maybe because it was done after a fascist regime.
