What does the Preamble promise to do for the people of this country? How has it succeeded, and how has it failed?
Advocard [28]

Answer:

The Preamble of the U.S. Constitution—the document’s famous first fifty-two words— introduces everything that is to follow in the Constitution’s seven articles and twenty-seven amendments. It proclaims who is adopting this Constitution: “We the People of the United States.” It describes why it is being adopted—the purposes behind the enactment of America’s charter of government. And it describes what is being adopted: “this Constitution”—a single authoritative written text to serve as fundamental law of the land. Written constitutionalism was a distinctively American innovation, and one that the framing generation considered the new nation’s greatest contribution to the science of government.

The word “preamble,” while accurate, does not quite capture the full importance of this provision. “Preamble” might be taken—we think wrongly—to imply that these words are merely an opening rhetorical flourish or frill without meaningful effect. To be sure, “preamble” usefully conveys the idea that this provision does not itself confer or delineate powers of government or rights of citizens. Those are set forth in the substantive articles and amendments that follow in the main body of the Constitution’s text. It was well understood at the time of enactment that preambles in legal documents were not themselves substantive provisions and thus should not be read to contradict, expand, or contract the document’s substantive terms.  

But that does not mean the Constitution’s Preamble lacks its own legal force. Quite the contrary, it is the provision of the document that declares the enactment of the provisions that follow. Indeed, the Preamble has sometimes been termed the “Enacting Clause” of the Constitution, in that it declares the fact of adoption of the Constitution (once sufficient states had ratified it): “We the People of the United States . . . do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”

Importantly, the Preamble declares who is enacting this Constitution—the people of “the United States.” The document is the collective enactment of all U.S. citizens. The Constitution is “owned” (so to speak) by the people, not by the government or any branch thereof. We the People are the stewards of the U.S. Constitution and remain ultimately responsible for its continued existence and its faithful interpretation.

It is sometimes observed that the language “We the People of the United States” was inserted at the Constitutional Convention by the “Committee of Style,” which chose those words—rather than “We the People of the States of . . .”, followed by a listing of the thirteen states, for a simple practical reason: it was unclear how many states would actually ratify the proposed new constitution. (Article VII declared that the Constitution would come into effect once nine of thirteen states had ratified it; and as it happened two states, North Carolina and Rhode Island, did not ratify until after George Washington had been inaugurated as the first President under the Constitution.) The Committee of Style thus could not safely choose to list all of the states in the Preamble. So they settled on the language of both “We the People of the United States.”

Nonetheless, the language was consciously chosen. Regardless of its origins in practical considerations or as a matter of “style,” the language actually chosen has important substantive consequences. “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.) The idea of nationhood is then confirmed by the first reason recited in the Preamble for adopting the new Constitution—“to form a more perfect Union.” On the eve of the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln invoked these words in support of the permanence of the Union under the Constitution and the unlawfulness of states attempting to secede from that union.

The other purposes for adopting the Constitution, recited by the Preamble— to “establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity”—embody the aspirations that We the People have for our Constitution, and that were expected to flow from the substantive provisions that follow. The stated goal is to create a government that will meet the needs of the people.

The television has undergone a large number of changes since its introduction. For example, Sony now produces not only color tel
wolverine [178]

Answer:

- Extension.

Explanation:

'Product extension' is illustrated as the company's strategy that involves the use of a presently existing established brand name to introduce a new product with slight variations in the similar product category. Such strategies assist the companies to increase their profit margins by offering a wide variety of products as the familiar brand's goodwill works for it to increases the sales effectively.

In the given question, the introduction of 'innovative products as televisions' by Sony that offers a variation in the established brand name of Sony in 'color television' would surely promote the increased sales and profits for the company. Such a strategy is categorized as 'product extension' that involves the extension of the similar product range.

Believing that others are right is to ________ as conforming without believing is to ________. public compliance; private accept
bija089 [108]

Believing that others are right is to private acceptance and as conforming without believing is to public compliance. Public compliance involves a change in behavior including the public expression of opinions that is not accompanied by an actual change in one’s private opinion. Thus, compliance represents what people do or say in public, even though they believe something different in private. A driver might follow the speed limit or wear a tie which is a behavior to conform to social norms even though we may not necessarily believe that it is appropriate to do so which is opinion. However, behaviors that are formerly executed out of a desire to be accepted which is normative conformity may frequently produce changes in beliefs to match them and the result becomes private acceptance which is for instance a child who begins smoking to please his friends but soon convinces himself that it is the right thing to do or a prisoner of war who eventually accepts the political beliefs of his captor.
