The exact line of the preamble of The United States Constitution is “We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union,…”
It’s a direct allusion to the United States’ foundational document, and rephrasing that allusion does not make it less nationalist.
It’s also a document which many US citizens strongly identify with, and they are invoking that phrase explicitly to gain rapoire and support from those US citizens. Rephrasing “We the People” would only dilute that virtue signal and lower its efficacy.
