"Thus, the particular phraseology of the Constitution of the United States confirms and strengthens the principle, supposed to be essential to all written Constitutions, that a law repugnant to the Constitution is void, and that courts, as well as other departments, are bound by that instrument."--John Marshall, Marbury vs. Madison, 1803
It has not proven to be a big step? Then what is the authority for judicial review of acts of Congress? It is distressing that for the past 200 years courts have misapplied this case.
BHO will be most pleased, as the reviewer lacks authority to review.
