"We the People" are the opening words in the Preamble to the Constitution. However, it can be confusing to try to interpret the meaning of this phrase. The words are considered to represent the citizens of the United States. By beginning the Preamble in this way, the authors want to convey the idea of the people being the ones who support the words stated in the Preamble. It also indicates that the ultimate political power of the nation comes from its citizens.

What is the Ruling in the Supreme Court Case of West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette, and how does it defend your
Assoli18 [71]

The resolution of the Supreme Court Case of West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette was a landmark decision reached by the court, which stated that the right of freedom of speech provided by the First Amendment legimated students to refuse to salute the US flag or to spout the  The Pledge of Allegiance of the flag if they attended a public school. It is therefore not mandatory, and more important, not considered a criminal offence to refuse to perform publicly patriotic demonstration acts.

The court victory was achieved by the Jehovah's Witnesses who, due to the prescriptions of their religion, could not salute or pledge to symbols. The Supreme Court ruling decided that the state should not have the power to oblige citizens to express themselves in a certain manner. Therefore, it is a clear defense to the right of speech, and it proves how the legal and judicial instruments guarantee it for citizens.

Read the statement from Philip Schaff.
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:  Because it showed that change is possible

Explanation/context:

The medieval era had been one in which the Roman Catholic Church dominated the culture of Europe, and it was thought that no one could successfully challenge such a deeply ingrained institution.  However, the Reformation movement by Martin Luther and other Protestant figures showed that even something as entrenched and enduring at the Catholic Church could be challenged, and changes could be accomplished.  Even during Martin Luther's lifetime, this idea that change was possible motivated people to launch efforts toward other major changes to powerful systems.  The Peasants Revolt that occurred in Germany in 1524-1525 took  Luther's push for reform in the church and applied it to make a push for change in feudal society.  Martin Luther himself didn't agree with that and opposed the Peasants Revolt, but as Schaff points out, the momentum of the Reformation was a "propelling force" inspiring other "forward movements" to make changes in society.
