Thomas Jefferson wrote the amendment banning slavery in about 1787. The amendment did not progress at that time but was re-introduced almost verbatim in 1865. This might be an example of how slow government can work; 78 years for a simple, short amendment to pass. Thus Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence and the 13th Amendment to the Constitution.
