Thomas Jefferson made slip in Declaration
Ay Pee . . .
In an early draft of the Declaration of Independence, Jefferson wrote the word "subjects," when he referred to the American public. He then erased that word and replaced it with "citizens," a term he used frequently throughout the final draft.
Rest at link.
