The phrases “We the People of the United States,” “House of Representatives …chosen… by the People of the several States,” “right of the people peaceably to assemble,” “right of the people to be secure in their homes,” “enumerations herein of certain rights shall not be construed to disparage others retained by the people,” “elected by the people thereof, for six years” and “The powers not delegated herein are reserved to the states respectively, and to the people” all refer to individuals, but some argue that “the right of the people to keep and bear arms” refers to the state.
