Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Supreme Court and the Constitution This little volume is based upon an article which I published in the Political Science Quarterly for March, 1912. The original text has been considerably expanded by the addition of new illustrative materials. It seems hardly necessary to apologize for including such copious quotations from the writings of "the Fathers" on the point at issue. The best paraphrases are never so eloquent or convincing as the documents themselves. Mr. B. E. Shultz assisted me in collecting the materials for the essay, and I wish to acknowledge my debt to him for this service.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Supreme Court in United States History, Vol. 2 of 3: 1821-1855 Three statesmen of Virginia led the attempt to awaken the people to the crisis which impended. In 1820, John Taylor Of Virginia issued his famous Construction Construed and Constitution Vindicated, which with his New Vistas of the Constitution published in 1823, con stituted for many years the political Bible of the extreme state-rights school. The Missouri question is prob ably not yet closed; the principle on which it turns is certainly not settled. Further attempts are to be made to wrest from the new States about to enter into the American Confederacy the power of regulating their own concerns. The tariff question is again to be agi tated. The usurpation of a Federal power over roads and canals is again to be attempted and again to be reprobated. That charter (of the Bank) has been justified by the Supreme Court, on principles so bold and alarming, that no man who loves the Con stitution can fold his arms in apathy principles calculated to give the tone to an acquiescent people, to change the Whole face of our Government, and to gen erate a thousand measures which the framers Of the Constitution never anticipated. The period bor rows new gloom from the apathy which seems to reign over SO many of our sister States. The very sound of state-rights is scarcely ever heard among them. In his Tyranny Unmasked, in 1822, Taylor denounced the judicial power, and set forth the doctrine that whenever the Constitution Operates upon collisions between individuals, it is to be construed by the Court; but when it operates upon collision between political departments, it is not to be construed by the Court.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Methods of Changing the Constitutions of the States: Especially That of Rhode Island The Court say in their charge: This evidence we have ruled out. Courts and juries, gentlemen, do not count votes to determine whether a constitution has been adopted or a gov erner elected or not. Courts take notice, without proof offered from the bar, what the constitution is or was, and who is or was the governor of their own State. It belongs to the Legislature to exercise this high duty. It is the Legislature which, in the exercise of its delegated sovereignty, counts the votes and de clares whether a constitution be adopted or a governor elected or not, and we cannot revive or reverse their acts in this par ticular, without usurping their power. And why not? Be cause if we did so we should cease to be a mere judicial, and become a political, tribunal, with the whole sovereignty in our hand; neither the people nor the Legislature would be sover eign we should be sovereign, or you would be sovereign. Sovereignty is above courts and juries, and the creature can not sit in judgment upon its creator. The admirable statement of the principle that on this subject in this particular, if the Legislature pronounces a government to be constitutional and valid, it is not in the power of its courts to pronounce such government unconstitutional and void, was quoted in full by Mr. Webster, in his argument of the Rhode Island ease, Luther v. Borden, before the Supreme Court. That Court gave upon this point a unanimous judgment, and refer to the clear and forcible opinion of the Supreme Court of Rhode Island, in the trial of Dorr.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a set of cases decided at the end of the nineteenth century, the Supreme Court declared that Congress had "plenary power" to regulate immigration, Indian tribes, and newly acquired territories. Not coincidentally, the groups subject to Congress' plenary power were primarily nonwhite and generally perceived as "uncivilized." The Court left Congress free to craft policies of assimilation, exclusion, paternalism, and domination. Despite dramatic shifts in constitutional law in the twentieth century, the plenary power case decisions remain largely the controlling law. The Warren Court, widely recognized for its dedication to individual rights, focused on ensuring "full and equal citizenship"--an agenda that utterly neglected immigrants, tribes, and residents of the territories. The Rehnquist Court has appropriated the Warren Court's rhetoric of citizenship, but has used it to strike down policies that support diversity and the sovereignty of Indian tribes. Attuned to the demands of a new century, the author argues for abandonment of the plenary power cases, and for more flexible conceptions of sovereignty and citizenship. The federal government ought to negotiate compacts with Indian tribes and the territories that affirm more durable forms of self-government. Citizenship should be "decentered," understood as a commitment to an intergenerational national project, not a basis for denying rights to immigrants.

Download or read book Restoring the Lost Constitution written by Randy E. Barnett and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-24 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Constitution found in school textbooks and under glass in Washington is not the one enforced today by the Supreme Court. In Restoring the Lost Constitution, Randy Barnett argues that since the nation's founding, but especially since the 1930s, the courts have been cutting holes in the original Constitution and its amendments to eliminate the parts that protect liberty from the power of government. From the Commerce Clause, to the Necessary and Proper Clause, to the Ninth and Tenth Amendments, to the Privileges or Immunities Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, the Supreme Court has rendered each of these provisions toothless. In the process, the written Constitution has been lost. Barnett establishes the original meaning of these lost clauses and offers a practical way to restore them to their central role in constraining government: adopting a "presumption of liberty" to give the benefit of the doubt to citizens when laws restrict their rightful exercises of liberty. He also provides a new, realistic and philosophically rigorous theory of constitutional legitimacy that justifies both interpreting the Constitution according to its original meaning and, where that meaning is vague or open-ended, construing it so as to better protect the rights retained by the people. As clearly argued as it is insightful and provocative, Restoring the Lost Constitution forcefully disputes the conventional wisdom, posing a powerful challenge to which others must now respond. This updated edition features an afterword with further reflections on individual popular sovereignty, originalist interpretation, judicial engagement, and the gravitational force that original meaning has exerted on the Supreme Court in several recent cases.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Highly illuminating ... for anyone interested in the Constitution, the Supreme Court, and the American democracy, lawyer and layperson alike." —The Los Angeles Review of Books In his major work, acclaimed historian and judicial authority Melvin Urofsky examines the great dissents throughout the Court’s long history. Constitutional dialogue is one of the ways in which we as a people reinvent and reinvigorate our democratic society. The Supreme Court has interpreted the meaning of the Constitution, acknowledged that the Court’s majority opinions have not always been right, and initiated a critical discourse about what a particular decision should mean before fashioning subsequent decisions—largely through the power of dissent. Urofsky shows how the practice grew slowly but steadily, beginning with the infamous and now overturned case of Dred Scott v. Sandford (1857) during which Chief Justice Roger Taney’s opinion upheld slavery and ending with the present age of incivility, in which reasoned dialogue seems less and less possible. Dissent on the court and off, Urofsky argues in this major work, has been a crucial ingredient in keeping the Constitution alive and must continue to be so.

Book excerpt: ** WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER **USA TODAY BESTSELLER ** PUBLISHER'S WEEKLY BESTSELLER ** NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER ** With a simple majority on the Supreme Court, the left would have the power to curtail or even abolish the freedoms that have made America a beacon to the world. We are one vote away from losing our most precious constitutional rights. As a Supreme Court clerk, solicitor general of Texas, and private litigator, Ted Cruz played a key role in some of the most important legal cases of the past two decades. In One Vote Away, you will discover how often the high court decisions that affect your life have been decided by the narrowest of margins. One vote preserves your right to speak freely, to bear arms, and to exercise your faith. One vote will determine whether your children enjoy their full inheritance as American citizens. God may endow us with "certain unalienable rights," but whether we enjoy them depends on nine judges—the "high priests" who have the last say in our system of government. Drawing back the curtain of their temple, Senator Cruz reveals the struggles, arguments, and strife that have shaped the fate of those rights. No one who reads One Vote Away can ever again take a single seat on the Supreme Court for granted.

Book excerpt: "A stunning work of history."—Doris Kearns Goodwin, author of No Ordinary Time and Team of Rivals Beginning in 1935, the Supreme Court's conservative majority left much of FDR's agenda in ruins. The pillars of the New Deal fell in short succession. It was not just the New Deal but democracy itself that stood on trial. In February 1937, Roosevelt struck back with an audacious plan to expand the Court to fifteen justices—and to "pack" the new seats with liberals who shared his belief in a "living" Constitution.
