The answer is: "It was known to the public as Common Sense."

Explanation:

The American Constitution is known as the oldest functioning constitution in the world. It was written in 1787 and was used in 1789.

It also proclaims that "We the People" are the source of the basic laws of the land. These are the three words that can be found on the first part of the Constitution. This means that the people (citizens) are the sources of power for the Constitution.

The American Constitution also divided the power of the government among three branches: the legislative, the executive and the judicial branch.

The Constitution was not known to the public as a Common Sense. It provided rules on the basis of what should be followed in order to have a peaceful society. Common Sense is based on sound judgment of what everyone feels is good or bad for a situation, however, the Constitution has a set of rules that people have to follow, by not basing it on sound judgement alone.

Thus, this explains the answer.
