Past two days of class

Over the past two days in class, we have mostly spent our time talking about the Articles of Confederation and  the Preamble. The Articles of Confederation were a set of laws that served as the 13 new states first ever constitution. But after a while representatives and citizens realized that the Articles of Confederation weren't working, so they decided to come up with the Preamble, a short brief statement that explained what was to come in the U.S Constitution, the new guidelines for the 13 states. The preamble was discussed over and over and after finally coming to reason, it officially stated "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."
