Many Americans know the first few words of the U.S. Constitution, but other than that, that’s about it. This country was built on the fundamentals of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Unfortunately, we seem to be moving away from that type of government and going towards a path of socialism. What our fore fathers put together was a government that said that all men are created equal and have freedoms that no other man or government can take away from them.
Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
It doesn’t mean that any one person has a right to happiness, it means that they have the right to pursue happiness. This country was built so a free man can go ahead and make something for himself and his family. Just because you are in this country, doesn’t mean that you are entitled to what this country has to offer. No one owes any other person something just because that person exists.
Over the next few posts you will see the U.S. Constitution as well as the Bill of Rights posted here to help you see what greatness this country was meant for. Our fore fathers came to this country to escape tyranny and over taxation from the government that controlled them without representation.
This is the part of the U.S. Constitution that most people recognize. this section is the 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.”
