3 0

The first true victims of American Imperialism were the Native Americans. As settlers slowly pushed West, native peoples were killed, forced out, or forced to assimilate into White American culture. Land would be set aside to "house" these many peoples, but even that would soon be settled. Native lands were slowly chipped away until they look as we see them. Many groups went from hundreds of thousands of miles of territory to a few hundred acres. Sometimes the land they were "given" wasn't even in their ancestral homeland, but thousands of miles away. Around the same time Americans would rob many Mexicans of the lands that they had settled and farmed for generations.

What is the purpose of the phrase "We the People of the United States" in the Constitution's preamble?

Dima020 [189]

Answer: The purpose of the phrase "We the People of the United States" means that the PEOPLE rule the government (a democracy) and not royalty (monarchy). They wanted this type of government because our founding fathers didn't want to have one person ruling the government. That is why we have three branches of government to separate political power.
