if they follow this path they could very well become a banana republic, which changes the constitution with each new government.They’re already arguing over how to interpret the constitution? It’s barely 30 years old. They can still ask several of the people who drafted it what they wanted out of it.

Oh yeah. The debate about strict constructionism dates to the drafting of the Constitution itself. Which is not surprising, since the drafters disagreed about a fair deal and the document was a grab-bag of compromises (the 3/5ths rule a particularly notorious one)They’re already arguing over how to interpret the constitution?

Well, not so much solo on their own as being part of a State of West Florida that basically covers that area, southern MS/AL and the central time zone FL panhandleInteresting idea having the Florida Parishes potentially constituting a state in their on right. I doubt though that the Federalist Party would put up John Marshall in 1812 as it would be controversial to have the sitting chief justice run for president without first quitting the court.
a weak usa is a stronger mexico, and it gives space for other powers on the continent america to rise more easilyThat wouldn't be good now would it?
Agreed. If I want to read about a strong USA I'll just open a history book.a weak usa is a stronger mexico, and it gives space for other powers on the continent america to rise more easily
I meant for the U.S., an unstable and dysfunctional U.S. obviously benefits its neighbors, at least territorially speaking.a weak usa is a stronger mexico, and it gives space for other powers on the continent america to rise more easily
The only supreme court justice to be nominated by a party for the presidency did resign though. Likewise for the only other candidate nominated from the judiciary.Oh yeah.

And while this is certainly true, candidates dint really resign OR campaign at this point in history, so it’s probably redundant
Do you think they actually agreed on that?They’re already arguing over how to interpret the constitution? It’s barely 30 years old. They can still ask several of the people who drafted it what they wanted out of it.
I’m not sure that precedent would have been established so early though. The Supreme Court was not always in session and only heard one constitutional case in 1832 which was decided much earlier. Marshall could’ve stayed Chief Justice and campaigned without ruling in any cases.The only supreme court justice to be nominated by a party for the presidency did resign though.

At the very least it’s unlikely to be repeated anytime soon. His nomination spoke more to the paucity of Federalist optionsHe still seems like an odd choice to be nominated for president.
