The Declaration of Indepenedence was a list of grievances written by Thomas Jefferson sent to the King of England. It listed why the 13 colonies wanted to separate from England. The white man wasn't even free at that point. It was the 15th amendment, that was ratified in 1870 (practically 100 years later), of the Constitution that allowed them to vote.
