Sorry, but you missed the fact that the Declaration’s purpose was to lay out the moral case for Independence.
Actually, you didn’t miss it. You simply choose to ignore it, which means you throw out the foundations of the American claim to self-government in liberty.
It did, but not in regards to slaves. That was a moral oversight which people eventually came to realize, but NOT AT THE TIME THEY WROTE IT! For some states, not even for decades afterwards.
But stop trying to put the cart before the horse. You are deliberately getting the history backwards to suit what you wish to believe instead of to acknowledge what was actually true.

Blah blah blah. Spare me the attempts at flowery and noble sounding sentiments. The Ugly fact is that the Declaration was not intended by it's authors or signatories to apply to slaves or slavery... that was a later day "Living Declaration" claim by subsequent Liberals of those later time periods.
For that matter, neither was the constitution. It incorporated a tacit acceptance of slavery right in it, in that clause I showed you, and in the 3/5ths portion of it with which i'm sure you're aware.
Just stop with your attempts to rewrite history. Nobody is buying them, and I expect you don't even believe them yourself.
