i don't think the founding fathers had any idea how powerful there idea was... i think they underestimated its effect on peoples lives. but they can not have all the credit as the governments ways has been ajusted many times but yes i think they created it as fair and just as they intended and it only changed when ajjusted
to alter or to abolish it, and to institute a new government ------ It is the Rights of the people to take action and either alter it or abolish it. If abolished they are to institute, another word for institute is 'to start' for all those who are just copying and pasting, a new government. For all those in American History with Rux -FrickeFresh
They belived that the closer government was to the people, the easier it was for the people to keep it in check and thus the harder it was for the government to become tyrannical. Thus they felt that most governing power should be retained by the individual states and the central government should be given as little power as possible. They felt that the government created by the constitution could eventualy overwhelm the states and take away the ability of their people to govern themselves. Hence it would threaten their rights.

The national government was unable to solve its financial problems, because under the Articles of Confederation, the government had no power to collect taxes. This was one reason why many favored a stronger national government.
The Declaration of Independence was the first document to justify a revolution against an established government. The Declaration has three parts. It starts with a statement of basic human rights that all people enjoy--"rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" It then goes on to proclaim that a just government is one that has the consent of the people being governed. This is the revolutionary action -- when a government fails to protect the rights of the people or is destructive of the rights of the people, then the people have the right to alter or abolish the government and form a new government that will be protective of the people's rights. The second part of the Declaration is listing of specific complaints the colonists had against King George III. The third part of the Declaration contains the actual statement of independence from Great Britain. MrV

No government is all powerful; a government can only do what the people give it the power to do -just learned about the 6 principles of our constitution in government! hope that helps
yes, both
I think they wanted a more powerful government Maybe they also wanted a more powerful economy As far as I know Shays Rebellion just showed that the government under the articles of confederation was powerless because it gave states the power not the over all government. As a result of a powerless government, federal troops had trouble controlling the rebellion. Today we have the constitution which the federal government for power then the state government.
To form a new government that wasn't strong because they just got rid of a to powerful government.
They made a rule about it. If you know someone is becoming to powerful you just read the rule.
Religion and government were more closely linked in the Byzantine Empire than in the west. The Byzantines viewed the emperor not just as the head of the government but as a living representative of God and Jesus Christ. This meant that the church and the state were combined into one all powerful body. Best government! Haha, no cheating people!!!!!!
The framers wanted this because they didn't want the national government to get too strong and become a monarchy, like the one they just worked so hard to get out of. The constitution created a federal system as a compromise so that power of government would be shared between the states and federal government, and the federal government would not become too powerful. It was the only choice the founders thought they had in order to achieve this.
1. The second amendment guarantees the right of every citizens to own and carry weapons. 2.The second amendment talks about the fact that the government should not interfere with the population owning guns in case the government gets too powerful, and the people need to create a militia. The framers of the constitution had just came out of a world where a king ruled, and they wanted to prevent the government that they created from getting like that. They purposely created a weaker government, i.e. the two houses of congress to prevent a president from becoming a king.
In a Dictatorship government, there is just one ruler who takes over that country and its people. The people do not have any rights. Their beliefs are "dictated" by the government.
Voters elect people to represent them in government. Just like what you saw in the recent election.
