Because Jefferson's premise was "All men are created equal".

Nobody, NOBODY, in the world during that time thought 'all me are created equal'. The whole feudal system, empires in china, samurais in Japan, didn't think men were equal. That's the whole reason why there was a king in Europe, Emperor in China, and etc.

But when Jefferson used that as a premise, as an obvious fact that 'all men are created equal', people's resposne was "Oh...he's right!"

That is why the declaration is the biggest conjob; Jefferson didn't prove 'why' all men were created equal; he just used it as a premise! You can't do that in today's society; if I say "all people are meant to be naked" and use it as some sort of a declaration, I'll get jailed.

So there you go, the country created after a biggest conman :)...but a brilliant and awesome conman!
