Has :\n1.Preamble\n2.Natural Rights\n3.List of Grievances\n4.Resolution of Independence\n5.Signer of the Declaration\n\nMeaning :\nWe hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are are life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.\nThat to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,\nThat whenever any Form of Government becomes destructiveof these new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dicate that Governments long established should not be change for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Oject evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, its is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

From 1777 to 1788 when the Constitution was ratified, the Articles of Confederation was the governing document of the United States. The articles gave the majority of power to the states to establish their own laws. The Constitution was written by the Second Continental Congress in order to give the federal government more authority. The Bill of Rights was written in 1789 in response to concerns that the constitution gave the federal government too much power.

There are relatively few in the constitution, excluding the bill of rights, because the constitution is largely a government-organizing document, including power sharing among the three branches. (One of the reasons that the Antifederalists objected to the Constitution as written was that it did not include many specific restrictions on governmental authority, but rather which branch could do what.)\n\nThere are some restrictions.\nFor instance, Congress has only the enumerated powers in Article I, Section 8.  If a law does not fall within those powers, then Congress cannot enact it.\nThere are also Congressional actions which are expressly forbidden: (Article 1 Section 9) such as\n(a) No bills of attainder or ex post facto laws\n(b) No suspension of habeas corpus unless in times of invasion or rebellion\n(c) Public monies may not be spent except by appropriation and accounting by Congress\n(d) no import taxes or duties on interstate transportation.\n\nThere are also a few other "rights" -- such as the "republican form of government" clause in Article IV -- which guarantees that each state will have a republican form of government (i.e. electing representatives) and In Article III section 2 -- which guarantees a trial by jury for the trial of "all crimes."\n\nFor a complete list, simply read the Constitution without the amendments:\n\nhttp://www.usconstitution.net/const.htm

The bill of rights defines the powers granted to the goverment when conducting criminal investigations (4,5,6,7).  It also defines the rights that citizens have that cannot be impeached upon by laws created at any level of government.

The authority of the Constitution was established after it was ratified by the (I believe it had to be 7 of the 13)Thirteen States. What isn't expressly given to the Federal Government is implied to go to the states.  The 3 branches had their own powers that check and balance each other out

sent to your home?\n\nI'm not sure, but there are lots of websites you could download and print it.  Most encyclopedias include a copy (our old World Book's have it).\n\nYou can get the full text at this site, along with other information.\nhttp://origin.www.gpoaccess.gov/constitution/\n\nThe US constitution is not a complex legal document (even though it is being turned into one by complex legal people).  It is not too long.  It is pretty clear. \n\nEveryone in the US should be famaliar with this document.\n\nThe preamble is poetic.  The bill of rights (the attachement) is the key to our way of life.\n\nGood luck and good reading.
