Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The phrase ‘We the People’ has been a huge part of American law’s development. It makes clear that the Constitution is created and ratified by the people and will protect the rights of individual citizens. It continues to be quoted in legal cases to protect individual rights.
Detailed explanation-2: -“We the People of the United States” strongly supports the idea that the Constitution is one for a unified nation, rather than a treaty of separate sovereign states. (This, of course, had been the arrangement under the Articles of Confederation, the document the Constitution was designed to replace.)
