The term "limited government" may not be found in the Constitution, but the concept of limited government is established in the Constitution by means of the definitions of the powers of the branches of the Government. Each branch has specified responsibilities and powers, and may not exceed those responsibilities and powers under the terms of the Constitution. In other words, the Constitution says what the Government should do, and that's all it can do. That's limited government.

The US Constitution provided a limited amount of power to the government and explicitly stated that any power not given by the constitution to the national government is automatically power of the state governors.
