Background to the Constitution
For about 1000 years a class system had developed in Europe
In most cases you were born with the right to rule (blueblood)
The commons( None noble) were simply born common and had to be TOLD.It was that simple old chap.More than that God decided what family you were born into and thus what your status would be.( of course there were revolt and usurpation from time to time but this was the general mind set. So when our Constitution said that WE THE PEOPLE had the ability and more the right to set up a government it shook the social order of the world.
Tomorrow: How was it to be done?
