The preamble of the Constitution actually states their thinking on the purpose of government. John Adams also wrote on the purpose of government and he basically stated that it was to make sure the people are happy and that a happy society is the purpose of government. He goes on to say that the government is to make sure people are taken care of in matters of security, health, and liberty. The founding fathers also thought the role of the citizen was important so the government and constitution would work. Washington writes that an educated citizen ensures that a democracy would work correctly because they would understand HOW it should work. Thus, protecting the concept of a free society. When you think about these concepts it is easy to see they had a handle on how the government and the citizenship should work together. In, my opinion, the lack of history and government education is proving Washington correct. When people don't understand how government works they come up with theories that are not logical and in the process end up loosing freedoms.

Yes. One of the few responsibilities that a limited federal government has - and one of the few it should have - is to protect the union (of states) from foreign enemies. That is the purpose of the Patriot Act.

It was to rally the people and to focus their attention on the need to win the war so that the ideals of the founding fathers would be upheld. As Lincoln stated "...That government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."

While the intentions of the founding fathers are discussed even today in modern history, it is certain their intentions were far from creating the government enjoyed by Americans today. Finally escaping the tyranny of England's monarchy, the founding fathers were not receptive of a strong central government. States expressed their own interests at the Constitutional Convention of 1787. The original intent of America before this was a loose confederation of states. However, this system lacked a method of taxation, effective interstate commerce, or a standing army. In the Federalist era, thinkers like Alexander Hamilton sought a more federalist style of government in which a strong central government united the states and oversaw the nation's operation.
According to John Adams the role of government is to help the common good of the people. He states, " the happiness of the people is the purpose of government and should serve the largest number and the true idea of a republic is an empire of laws and not men." Washington stated that the " virtue or morality is necessary Spring of popular government and human rights can only be assured among virtuous people." Franklin added to this idea by saying that " only virtuous people are capable of freedom."
