The Preamble is and introduction to the Constitution, It explains the reasons for which the constitution was made. The short paragraph can be broken down into shorter phrases for a better understanding for example "provide for the common defense" This was added because The Framers of the Constitution knew that keeping the nation protected was a priority for that time and the future. ]]> 2019-01-31 22:08:15 UTC https://padlet.com/aesau203931/zz0t98a71d5q/wish/326504931 bmagana405405 https://padlet.com/aesau203931/zz0t98a71d5q/wish/326505432 seperation of powers-an act of vesting the legislative, executive, and judicial powers of government in separate bodies. Under this model, a state's government is divided into branches, each with separate and independent powers and areas of responsibility so that the powers of one branch are not in conflict with the powers associated with the other branches.
3 branches -Our federal government has three parts. They are the Executive,leguslative judical

People depend their lives to be protected by this constitution when things aren't fair they depend on it. People know that their maybe some issues with the government but it has remained stable within the years of adopting the constitution. 
Without the constitution there would be no stable government and things would be out of control and people would have power or anyone at all. There are many other factors why the US constitution is still working to this day. ]]> 2019-01-31 22:11:33 UTC https://padlet.com/aesau203931/zz0t98a71d5q/wish/326505718 bmagana405405 https://padlet.com/aesau203931/zz0t98a71d5q/wish/326506236 2019-01-31 22:13:53 UTC https://padlet.com/aesau203931/zz0t98a71d5q/wish/326506236 jmurillo204108 https://padlet.com/aesau203931/zz0t98a71d5q/wish/326506780 The 6 basic principles of the Constitution from 3.1 are
