Then use a Proposition-class that holds the actual value.

No - you can for example override the comparison-semantics on the
Proposition-class to be comparable with True/False with the proper
semantics:
class Proposition(object):
def __init__(self, v):
self._v = v
def __eq__(self, o):
return self._v == o
TrueProposition = Proposition(True)
FalseProposition = Proposition(False)
print True == TrueProposition
print False == TrueProposition
print False == FalseProposition
