How did the framers of the constitution guard against tyranny?

Individual Rights - Every citizen of the US has certain rights--freedom of speech and religion, freedom of assembly, to petition the government, the right to How_did_the_constitution_guard_against_tyranny, to move freely within the US, etc. These are rights of citizenship and the government can't take them away.Popular Sovereignty - The people rule, the government serves the people.Republicanism - The government supports liberty and the rule of law (actually 'republicanism' in this sense is not capitalized. When capitalized it means the Republican Party).Federalism - All the states join together to form a federal government which has certain powers over the states. The states are not -sovereign-.Separation of Powers - The federal government is separated into three branches, Administrative, Legislative and Judicial. Each branch has its own powers. No one branch can run the government by itself.Checks and Balances - Each of the branches has the ability to check another branch, so big decisions, like passing a law, require cooperation of more than one branch.Limited Government - Government is limited to just what powers it's given in the Constitution. it isn't allowed to intrude into our lives more than necessary.


Is Habeas Corpus a guarantee of fair treatment named in both the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments?

While the term "Habeas Corpus" appears in the body of the Constitution (Article I, Section 9 ... "The privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it."), it does not appear in either the Fifth or the Fourteenth Amendments, although the broad concept is echoed in them: The term Habeas Corpus does not appear in the US Constitution.

No State shall . . . nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;

Why was the constitution ratified so important to history?

The primary function of a constitution is to lay out the basic structure of the government according to which the people are to be governed. It is the constitution of a country, which establishes the three main organs of the government, namely, the legislature, executive and judiciary.The constitution of a country not only defines the powers allotted to each of the three main organs, but it also significantly makes a clear demarcation of the responsibilities assigned to each of them. It effectively regulates the relationship between these organs as well as the relationship between the government and its people.Since the country’s constitution stands superior to all the laws framed within the territorial precincts of the country, any law enacted by the ruling government has to be in conformity with the concerned constitution. As such, the citizens would, in turn, be abiding by not just the law, but also working in sync with the demarcations of the constitution laid by the country.The constitution does not simply provide a recipe for an efficient government, but also deals with limitations on power. Since power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely, a constitution is established to restrict the abuse of power by those who conduct governmental functions.The constitution of a particular country lays down the national goals which form the basic edifice on which the nation rests upon. For instance, the constitution of India has inscribed in it the primary facets of the nation which are democracy, socialism, secularism and national integration.A constitution, besides thrusting on the rights of the citizens of the concerned nation, also has embedded in it the duties that the citizens require to adhere to as well.
