8 0

As with everything, interpretations depend upon the reader. An example can be the Quakers who were religious and fought for abolition of slavery claiming that the constitution stated itself that all people on Earth are equal since they were created by God, the creator. The founding fathers, however, believed that slaves cannot be people and that they are 3/5 of a regular human being, so equality does not apply to them.
