The Constitution is “for”, not “of”; the word “of” expresses “possession”; in this case, a possession of the United States; therefore, its creation, to do with as it pleases; it denotes ownership. Whereas the word “for” denotes something “intended for” someone else; in this case, a contract of the People, intended for the United States. The Constitution for the United States of America contains seven (7) Articles; each Article is a binding contract in the form of a statute representing the will of the People, in plain English, not legalese; ordained and established by the People as the Law of the Land. Each Article is restricted by the Bill of Rights; and, all exercised powers are to contribute to accomplishing at least one (1) of the six (6) purposes of government defined in the Preamble. Our founding fathers created “a more perfect union”, not an entity, which they referred to as a federal city for the United States of America. The Constitution called it a district, which is a region marked off for administrative purposes, for the seat of government; a government made up of representatives of each state, not a state onto itself. We the People are above the Constitution for we created it to bind down our elected and appointed servants with the chains of the constitution.

“Put not your faith in men; but, bind them down with the chains of the constitution.” – Thomas Jefferson, Kentucky Resolutions 1798 “I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty, than to those attending too small a degree of it.” – Thomas Jefferson, 1791 “Enlighten the people generally; and, tyranny and oppressions of body and mind will vanish like evil spirits at the dawn of day.” – Thomas Jefferson
