it is a sad state of Affairs when a law student doesn’t know the constitution!
Mark Levin would tear these students a new one, I bet!
Very true! Interesting how liberals who laugh like hyenas usually have the knowledge of one.
Proof positive that the high point of their “education” is the ability to memorize obscure cases that support the LIB agenda, while ignoring the rest.
I doubt if these “students” have ever read “The Federalist Papers” or the works of John Locke, or even know who the Founding Fathers were.
BTW, I loved Christine’s question to Coons -”How does being corporate council qualify as working in business?” IMHO, it doesn’t. Wirking in business means keeping the books, knowing how to operate the equipment and dealing with customers.
Even more so when a Law School produces a President who takes solemn oath to defend our US constitution —but who holds it in such contempt he flaunts his status as President of an Office he is not eligible to hold.AND Far too many Americans believe the LIE of a “living constitution— whose meaning can be changed by any Judge reading it, or rather case law
preceeding their own reading.
To be fair, the words of the constitution are of passing interest in the practice of law. In any dispute, the arguments are framed in the words of the Supreme Court's interpretation of the constitution. The plain words of the constitution may or may not have play in an actual case, where actual judges, with actual power to call up force of violence to obtain submission, dictate what the rule of law will be.
Blame the Darwininian theology that was introduced into Harvard Law. Previously they used Blackstone’s commentaries as their basis.
“Law Students” these days only study “case law” instead of Constitutional Law.
Case law is evolved through the intellect of elite interpreters of the law.
Constitutional law is originalism, akin to divinely created/inspired law.
