what does "we the people" mean in the constitution?
A/ The power of government comes from the people.
It's slightly ironic because some people were actually really angry about it being we the people rather than we the states, like in the Articles of Confederation (the failed government in the US after the British but before the constitution)
That we ourselves did something
No it simply means every legal voting citizen in the US. That includes those who wrote the constitution, and the citizens who voted to ratify it, and even those who didnt.
Everybody, our nation big or small, black or white. We the people. everybody is "the people".
"We the People" in the constitution means, "Us, the citizens of the United States of America".
"We The People" is the opening phrase of the Constitution of the United States of America.
