"The Supreme Court determines what is and isn't constitutional (see Marbury v. Madison). Congress writes the laws, the SCOTUS interprets them, the Pres. enforces them.

You are putting an awful lot of (excuse the word) faith in an institution that has reversed itself 127 times beginning with the Warren court.

"The law must be stable, but it must not stand still."

Justice Roscoe Pound (1870 - 1964)

A Supreme Court that never reversed itself would be a meaningless institution.
