So what?  "People of the US" seems pretty nebulous to me.

Ok, so what that says is:
"We the People of the United States [...] do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."

It was created by people of the United States.  ... so?

Are you trying to objectify something you so zealously claimed vague and subjective?

I believe we were talkin about the liberties in the constitution earlier, some liberties are pretty clear...others not so much.

this is just the openning of the doc., and im not totally sure, thats why I'm asking.

It just says we created it...what's the deal?
One must ask oneself: "do I will trolling to become a universal law?" And then when one realizes "yes, I do will it to be such," one feels completely justified.

I personally think it should apply only to US Citizens but I don't know what the rules are.
