Legally equal. That is all that matters. The Constitution doesn't go so much into intangibles like the Declaration of Independence does. The former is law, the latter is poetry. The symbolic language serves its' purpose though, by firing up those who choose to be aware of it. It's beautiful, egalitarian prose and it sets the stage to prevent any sort of legal restraint on your own personal advancement and success (aside from where your advancement may hamper the rights of other, of course).
