The Founding Fathers were heavily influenced by British philosopher john Locke, whose social contract theory stated that a government forms a contract with its citizens. Governments are obligated to defend the citizens' life, liberty, and property in exchange for their loyalty.
Examples in the Constitution are found in the Preamble (insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty...), Article Two (giving the President the power of Commander-in-Chief of the U.S. military), and the Thirteenth Amendment (abolishing slavery).
