In the first part of the Preamble it states, "More perfect union" which means to create a partnership that was stronger than previous. Also, it shows "establish justice" which means to give an actual definition to justice and be able to enforce it.

ReplyDeleteWhen the founders said "...a more perfect union" they were talking about creating a stronger partnership than we previously had. "...establish justice" means to give an actual definition to justice and enforce the definition made for Justice. The founders were ensuring that the peace would be kept for years to come when they wrote "...ensure domestic tranquility". When the writers wrote "...provide for the common defense" they were talking about providing services to protect and secure the american people. The quote "...promote the general welfare" is guaranteeing the promotion of positive U.S. well being. the last pert of the Preamble stating "...secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity" is making sure blessings and liberties stay for the future generations.
ReplyDeleteThe Preamble's purpose is to out line the following Articles of the Constitution. "...more perfect union" is meant to say that a more perfect and stronger partnership is to be built. "...establish justice" was there to establish a definable justice that could be enforced. "...ensure domestic tranquility" was the goal of creating lasting peace. "...provide for the common defense" is to provide services to the common American people. "...promote the general welfare" was to provide for the US and give them a sense of well being."...secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity" to make sure blessings and liberties stay granted from then to the present and beyond to the future.
ReplyDeleteThe Preamble acts as an introduction to the Constitution and outlines the Articles of it. It states the purpose of the Constitution and what it is meant to accomplish. For example, "...In order to form a more perfect union..." means America has existed for a while now, and with the Constitution, will continue to exist in a better state of being. It will also be a better place to live and provide for its people, as it says in the Preamble, "...Provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare..." The Preamble also lists things like "secure the blessings of liberty..." ensuring the freedom of American citizens from then on. All in all, the Preamble's purpose is to summarize the Constitution and how it will benefit the new nation.
