We the People....

"The American Constitution is the greatest governing document, and at some 7,000 words, just about the shortest." Stephen Ambrose

"The Constitution only guarantees the America people the right to pursue happiness. You have to catch it yourself." Benjamin Franklin

At some point today it was estimated on a U.S. Census Bureau website that the population of the United States of America exceeded 300 Million people. The U.S. Census Bureau also has a population clock that estimates the world population at over 6 Billion people. So if my math is correct the U.S. accounts for approx 5% of the worlds population. This is significant since the majority of the total world population does not have any firsthand knowledge or experience with the America experience. As you go about your day in the United States of America remember how unique and special your experience is. 95 % of the worlds population can only dream & imagine what we take for granted each and every day. Blessings so easily overlooked such as a stable government, a stable food supply, a safe water source, an effective healthcare network and a constitution establish for all the people of the United States.

We the People of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, ensure 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 the Constitution for the United States of America........
