the words "promote" and "provide" mean different things. from the writing of those who formed the document we have come to accept this as creating the atmosphere or encouragement, but non-interference. the word provide, has a very differing meaning, which is government and protection.

Americans in need. who is it to determine this fallacy. if Bill Gates needs a new house, i am sorry its up to him to buy it. if you need a new liver, this should be up to you. if a person is a citizen and has not achieved whatever i have, its not up to me to provide him/her what ever they consider needs.

by the way your quoting the pre-amble of, not the constitution. that is the reason for not the mechanism...

I did not say the above about the US Constitution.

Whether the Preamble is the reason for is not the point. The point is the Preamble is just as much a part of the US Constitution as any of the 7 Articles or the 27 Amendments.
