"Sabes que todos los hombres y mujeres son creados iguales. Fin de la cita. Nunca hemos cumplido con eso. Jefferson nunca lo cumplió, tenía esclavos. Las mujeres fueron excluidas."
— Joe Biden
Simplified Meaning:
Everyone is supposed to have the same rights and be treated equally. However, this hasn't always happened. Even though people like Jefferson said this, he owned slaves, and women were not given equal rights.
