Just want to post an interesting article by Thomas DiLorenzo with regard to this.

Here are just a couple of small excerpts:

“TThe words “judicial review” do not appear in the U.S. Constitution. This was an invention of the Hamiltonian lawyer John Marshall when he was the chief justice of the U.S. Judicial review existed, but it was not considered to be any more important than executive branch review, congressional review, or the review of the constitutionality of federal laws by the people of the free and independent states. Perhaps the most famous example of this truth is how President Andrew Jackson responded to Marshall’s personal opinion that a bank run by politicians out of the nation’s capital, primarily for the benefit of politically-connected private stockholders in the government-subsidized bank, was constitutional.”

and the final paragraph:

“If President Trump were to begin defying the left-wing lawereaucracy, beginning with the absurd and ridiculously –worded ruling by Obama’s Hawaiian pal, he would be in sync with the man he looks up to as his presidential role model, Andrew Jackson.”
