The part of the preamble that says "form a more perfect Union" means that we should perfect the United States. What they are reffering to is the United States which came from the term Union.

The United States was being run by the british or europeans i donte remember but they were taxin the hell out the those who lived in the U.S. and forcing what they considered at the time as unjust laws and regulations. They were not giving the country a chance to florish on it is own rather they were looking to "milk it" so in this case the union between them was Bogus and by the preambles terms not perfect. So when he says a more perfect union it is meant that they want more freedom and more of a say on how their country was to be run, and since there is not a perfect union they attempted to aim for a more perfect one than the current one. Basically in a nut shell.........they wanted the indepedence to govern themselves.

Union betwen the states, one nation, pull together better. It was suppose to work but Maine, Vermont, and New Hampshire, broke off Massachusetts and became better. West Virginia tore off Virgina. Some idiot let North Dakota join the Union too, and they are prejudicial against white folk as three whites walking down the street in North Dakota constitutes a war party! Californians are still trying to relate. Hawaii is still scared of us, but Rhode Island isn't realy an Island. Alabamians can count faster than Floridians to this day. Nobody cares anymore as they were once suppose to. We got rid of a king for another tyrant.

"We the People in order to form a more perfect Union"
Me thinks that they--meaning those who wrote the Constitution--are referring to their new country. All the states that they brought together...to form a union.

"Union" refers to a joining together, in this case, of the separate States. Prior to the adoption of the Constitution, the operative document in the U.S. was the Articles of Confederation.
They were inadequate for a variety of reasons, but basically they all boiled down to there being no cohesive Central government to adjust conflicting claims of the various States. Remember that at this time, 1783-1789, the States of the U.S. were united in name only, and each one truly considered itself sovereign.

The preamble was really just a message to the world that America was a different kind of county, One where the individual is valued.

Tranquility means peaceful Insure domestic tranquility means to insure that people can live together in peace. However, the founders of this country said that they had given us a free nation if we can keep it. They also said that the consitution was only good for a nation of self-controlled individuals. But now it appears that much of our population is anything but self-controlled.
