We the People - How the Constitution's Preamble Changed Everything
Patriot Lessons: American History and Civics (Constitution, Declaration of Independence, etc.)11/21/21 • 36 min
Learn how the Preamble of the Constitution was drafted by Gouverneur Morris almost as an afterthought - and why the words "We the People" were included. Discover how Preamble reflected the fundamental transformation of the federal government from one based on a confederation of States under the Articles of Confederation into one based on the sovereignty of the People. Explore the vigorous opposition of this change led by Patrick Henry and others. Review how James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, James Wilson, and other supporters of the Constitution prevailed in defending the new Preamble.
