Default The Constitution is a building code, not a blueprint

The Constitution allows the government to exist. A better way to make
your point is to say the Constitution acknowledges that government
powers come from the people, and that the Constitution protects the
rights of the people from usurpation of this power.

Write it anyway you wish, or repeat what others have already written ...
that is the way it is ... guns, gold, God, food, shelter, medicine, etc.
and an insistence to be free! It all comes down to, "Are you a man or
are you a mouse?"
