The Preamble and all of its Glory!

Preamble to the United States Constitution

"We the People of the United States, in order to form a more perfect Union establish Justice, insure domestic, Tranquility, provide for common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain establish this Constitution for the United States of America." 

What the Preamble means to Me?

First and foremost the first words that begins the preamble is, "We the People" what this means to me is how significant we the people are. It almost gives a sense of entitlement to the people and that are opinions do matter and how we have to come together and make things better for all. The rest of the preamble informs us that to become a better country we need to improve on making things fair for others and equal, to be honest with one another and anything going on in our country, get along, and try and live a nice life and create it for kids, parents, and those after us. The preamble is also stating that we need to create a list of rules and promises for our government to enforce and that we the people need to keep and obey. 




This video describes our Founding Fathers getting together to make The Preamble and what the meaning as well at what it talks about along with the rest of the constitution!

TWENTY-SEVENTH AMENDMENT:) " No law varying the compensation for the services of the Senators and Representatives shall take effect until an election of Representatives shall have intervened." Meaning: This amendment states that those in Congress can't themselves a pay raise this also deals with the decrease in pay wages. This image was kind of ironic because it shows that our economy is messed up in  so many ways and instead of them doing things to improve it they think of themselves and just want more money that could go towards something else. This does a pretty good job of explaining the 27th amendment for dummies!:)
