Preamble

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 defence, 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.

The preamble is basically for the government to set the tone of the rest of the Constitution. It is what guides them in writing the rest of the laws.  Each line of the preamble ensures something specific and important to every citizen.  Understanding the preamble will help to understand the rest of the Constitution and each amendment.

I chose this video because I thought it would be useful for helping to understand the preamble more.  It breaks down each phase providing an easier answer.  A more effective way to understand.  It is also a funny in the way he gives his explanation.
