I found this thing, written by some other bozo:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights...

OUR declaration of independence says "all men" not "all Americans."

Interesting. I don't know if I follow.

He's saying that the statements made in the Declaration of Indpendence apply to all people, not just Americans.

Spurious argument, because there were no "Americans" when the Declaration was written.

I meant that I don't know if I agree.
