OK the Constitution didn’t invent the name the United States of America, but it created a completely different USofA than existed before - the Free Constitutional Republics that did not exist before.

The Constitution created a completely new government than that the weak Articles of Confederation.

It don’t want to argue with you about how many angels can dance on the head of a pin.

This is a stupid argument. The Constitution created the Free Republic form of our government. Period. I don’t know what you are opposing here.

Not only did the Constitution not invent the name United States of America, it did not create the nation called the United States of America.

The USA before and after the Constitution was the same country. The type of government was greatly changed and the membership was temporarily reduced to eleven states when Washington was inaugurated.

You stated the Constitution created the United States. It did not. That claim is simply wrong. Martin Van Buren became the first natural born citizen President in 1837. All before that were citizens of the United States at the time the Constitution was adopted. That fact eliminates any possibility whatever that the Constitution created the United States.

I don’t know what you are opposing here.

[Jim W N #21] But what Trump doesn’t seem to understand is THE CONSTITUTION CREATED AMERICA!

[Jim W N #55] Well, the Constitution created the United States of America.

I am opposing your repeated fallacious claim that the Constitution created the United States. The people of the United States created the Constitution. Making believe you do not know what you said is neither helpful nor persuasive.
