A Correct answer
Explanation

The Preamble begins with "We the People," establishing the principle of popular sovereignty - that the authority of government comes from the people themselves. This contrasts with systems where states hold ultimate authority (anti-federalist position) or where power is concentrated in unelected bodies. The option contains a minor typo (soverign instead of sovereign).
