Constitution's Preamble

"We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."


In my opinion the preamble states the main purposes, principles and goals of the United States government established by the Founding Fathers in regards to the Constitution. Its purpose is to define the reasons behind the Constitution, establish what justifies a government, and explain how its citizens have come to create one.

I really like this video,because as you read and see the images it makes you feel that there is a reason for those words that were stablished years ago and people in the United States are proud to follow. Like the song says this is a story of all of us.
