1. Without the Constitution we could have been the Divided States of America.

2. It isn't original, ideas taken from the Articles of Confederation and state constitutions

3. Compromise built a more perfect union.Balance of powers

4. Its not perfect, it didn't resolve the dispute over slavery

5. The Preamble is only 52 words, we "form a more perfect Union, established Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity."
