School House Rock -The Preamble

When I was in elementary school I watched this and loved it. It would be played between cartoons on Saturday mornings. I learned the song and can still sing it to this day. It's cute but it reminds me of how much our country has swayed from it's origins. I can state the Preamble word for word to this day because of this production.

"We the people, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility. Provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare and,ensure the blessings of liberty, to ourselves and our posterity. Do ordain and establish this constitution of the United States of America."
