Florida Constitution

SECTION 2. Basic rights.--All natural persons, female and male alike, are equal before the law and have inalienable rights, among which are the right to enjoy and defend life and liberty, to pursue happiness, to be rewarded for industry, and to acquire, possess and protect property; except that the ownership, inheritance, disposition and possession of real property by aliens ineligible for citizenship may be regulated or prohibited by law. No person shall be deprived of any right because of race, religion, national origin, or physical disability.

Does the Executive, or any citizen with basic reading comprehension skills, need a judge or even a lawyer to tell them what those words mean?

Are there any bounds to the Judiciary's Powers to change the meaning of words and of the Law, in your universe?

If your answer is yes, that they, like all the three branches, are limited in our form of limited government, pray tell where you think those boundaries lie...and if they exceed them, whose responsibility is it to rein them in??

Bump. The answer is obvious and glaring. But Jeb says he gets his power from the judiciary.
