You are not John Jay. And yes Andy not every founders words are sacrosanct. Read The Virginia and Kentucky resolutions by Madison and Jefferson.

Are you involved in the judicial system in any capacity? If so, in what capacity?

He isn’t John Jay.
But he is far closer to him than you are.

Black robed justices aren’t our high priests.
They do not supercede the constitution to us.
When we see a conflict, the constitution wins with us.

You are (by your own words) an entirely different sort of animal.

Ad Hominem. Neither are you.

So Lucius I assume you set no store by the legal principle of" Settled Law". The resolutions were political statements not matters of judicial precedent.
