I'm in 9th grade and studying Marbury currently. The teacher prizes herself on being a "moderate" I'm writing the class paper on the unconsitutionality of Roe v. Wade. :)
She openly admits to loving Judicial activism. I can't understand why leftists who love the "will of the people" (gore) won't restore power to them
The whole concept of Judicial review seems inherently flawed, because of the power that it allows the court to have. UNBRIDLED power! Strike down a law if ya don't like it.... use the due process clause and case law as your reasons. Nice to hear I'm the only one who opposes Marbury.
Give 'er heck! The leftists are convinced that every 'advance' in civil rights was brought about by judicial activism and/or government coercion against the retrograde rednecks fighting for the status quo. Upholding strict constitutionality against that sort of mindset is a challenge. Good luck.
