Preamble of the Constitution 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.

Form a More Perfect Union

Establish Justice

Laws and penalties/punishments should be fair and reasonable.

Insure Domestic Tranquility

Maintain peace within the nation so that all may be secure.

Provide for the Common Defense

Protect the nation and the nation’s interests from outside forces.

Promote the General Welfare

Actions taken by the government should always be taken with the best interests of the public in mind.

Secure the Blessings of Liberty

Provide citizens with the right to life, freedom, and the pursuit of happiness
