Detailed explanation-1: -Insure Domestic Tranquility: referred to the new government’s commitment to keep peace within America’s borders. Provide For The Common Defense: to keep the states safe from the threat of foreign nations (other countries) by ensuring there was a national military (army, navy, etc).
Detailed explanation-2: -The preamble to the United States Constitution proclaims that a foundational purpose of our government is to “insure domestic Tranquility.” It is without dispute that our government has dismally failed in this regard.
Detailed explanation-3: -The preamble is not actually a law or a legal document, but it is used to make it clear what to expect in the Constitution. Namely, the preamble says that the Constitution aims to create laws around justice, peace, defense, welfare, liberty, and prosperity for a “more perfect” country for Americans.
