MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

What do the following lines mainly reveal about the Constitution (paragraph 2)?

But who are "We the People"? This question troubled the nation for centuries. As Lucy Stone, one of America’s first advocates for women’s rights, asked in 1853: "‘We the People’? Which ‘We the People’? The women were not included." Neither were white males who did not own property, American Indians, or African Americans—slave or free.

The writers of the Constitution were not aware that other people living in America wanted rights.

The Constitution eventually included everyone it originally left out by 1853.
