Ivy, please give examples and not talking points. Your idea of judicial review was nixed in Marbury v. Madison in the 1800's.
Good advice DT. It might assist some Board members' understanding of the Constitution's interpretation if they would read any number of tomes about that subject. Some Board members almost rapaciously adhere to a "strict construction" constitutional position which is a dead end. There is nothing in the Constitution or its formulation that supports strict construction. The Founding Fathers included "equity" in the Constitution's Article III in order to provide the Supreme Court and inferior courts with interpretive latitude.
By the way, Amendments IX and X add nothing to the Constitution unless one ignores the Article I, Section 8 bookends: general welfare and Necessary and Proper.
