If you go back to the Declaration of Independence, it doesn't say: "We Americans believe these truths to be self-evident. " It says: "We believe these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal, and all men are entitled to life liberty and the pursuit of happyness."

如果你回头再看看独立宣言，上面并没有说：,美国人相信,这些都是不言而喻的真理“,上面所说的是，我们相信这些真理不言而喻，从而,人人平等，所有人都拥有,人身自由，都有追求幸福的权利“
