Constitution Day

[Vipsoccermaster]

That's right, today is Constitution Day of the USA. The Constitution was signed today in 1787.

Here we have 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 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

I hope you take your time into celebrating this moment.

Some of the folks from different countries would feel biased about this. Anyway, I didn't learn anything about the Constitution today, except that in Global History class, we heard the School House of Rock singing about the Preamble.

 

[Vipsoccermaster]

Last year, I had to memorize the Preamble in my Government class.

 

[kingboo]

woa, isn't the preamble very long?

 

[Vipsoccermaster]

woa, isn't the preamble very long?

It may be long, but you're going have to memorize it eventually.

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

so thats all of the preamble? i thought i'll be longer.

 

[Vipsoccermaster]

Yeah, that's the preamble. I don't know if it longer than that, maybe some very minor details.

I learned the Preamble in seventh grade, and already, the Bush government never followed it. Oh well. We'll hope that the country forms a more perfect union, establishes justice, insures domestic tranquility, and all that good stuff.

 

[kingboo]

Oh yea I do remember now. I learned it in Social Science.

I learned the Preamble in seventh grade, and already, the Bush government never followed it. Oh well. We'll hope that the country forms a more perfect union, establishes justice, insures domestic tranquility, and all that good stuff.

I thought nobody is above the law.  :
