They did not speak on behalf of women, African Americans, or the Native Americans that were here long before them. They did not treat women equally, and did not give them many of the rights that men had, such as voting. The Constitution also supported slavery, and did not treat black people equally. The United States did not give Native American tribes anything for free in their treaties, and the negotiations only regarded sales of land and property rights that the tribes owned and that the United States wanted to buy. The Framers of the Constitution represented the ideas for America’s government, not for the people themselves. The Founding Fathers had goals for America, and had visions of what they wanted for the government and citizens. Some of these objectives included: establishing justice, form a more perfect union, provide for the common defense, and making a more perfect society. All of these ideas represented the ideas for the government, but not necessarily America’s people
