MUST USE ATTACHED DOCUMENT TO WRITE THIS PAPER!!!!!
Describe the history behind the decision (you can find it in the lecture summary). You may use Jefferson’s reaction to it in your paper.
Next, read Federalist #78 and pick one or more quotes (you may select the ones I highlighted) to analyze.
Answer one of the following:
Should justices have lifetime appointments?
How afraid are you that one’s blind belief affects their opinion?
Should the Supreme Court have the power to overturn laws?
Is the Supreme Court perfect the way it is? If not, what changes would you suggest?
Anything else I might have missed.
Finally, examine and explain a current case (the 1950s to the present) and/or current events that support your position.
