Now let's look at your "for the" vie "of the" BS
Quote:
(Preamble)
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
In the actual constitution it quotes in green here that THIS Constitution is FOR the United States.

However when people refer to the Constitution, they explain the reference to the country they are talking about:
The Constitution OF the United States
The Constitution OF Argentina
The Constitution OF Brazil

Not a conspiracy to say the Constitution of the United States of America

It just happens that one was written "for" the United States.
