>That literature has been interpreted by the courts as the Constitution only applying to United States citizens "For some reason" seems like a fair description of that. It's not explicitly said, the closest is "secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity." And "We the people" is talking about who wrote it, I don't get how one can claim that bit is who it applies to. I get the arguments made to do this, to me they seem clearly against the spirit of the Bill of Rights/Founding Fathers, something we generally hold to be sacrosanct.
