Ann Coulter appeared on one of the talking-head shows last night opposite a pin-head who kept saying the Michigan admissions case "has nothing to do with the Constitution".

If it has nothing to do with the Constitution why is the case before the US Supreme Court?

"If it has nothing to do with the Constitution why is the case before the US Supreme Court?"

*This* case is about the constitution, specifically the equal protection clause of the 14th amendment.

However, most other cases before the court are not about the constitution, but rather about the interpretation of federal laws and the validity of administrative actions.
