They don\u2019t teach the Constitution from the founders\u2019 point of view. They don\u2019t refer to the Federalist Papers and other founder era sources. And they rarely even refer to decisions as \u201cjudicial activism.\u201d They teach the Constitution not according to its intended meaning, but rather according to the many landmark Supreme Court decisions that have interpreted it, defined it, and in almost all cases, broadened it.<\/p>\n<p>As one law student put it:  \u201cI don\u2019t know about the experience of other people who have attended law school, but I\u2019d estimate that we spent perhaps only 0.5 percent of the time between two semesters of Constitutional Law learning about what the Constitution says and what the founding fathers intended. We spent no time on the Federalist Papers, and the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia was only mentioned as a historical fact. No more was discussed on the matter. The intent of the Founders can\u2019t be found anywhere in my Con Law book or any other books we read. In fact, the only time I recall reading about the founder\u2019s intent was when Justice Scalia wrote the opinion, the concurring opinion, or the dissent in cases.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/tenthamendmentcenter.com\/2013\/07\/11\/nullification-and-a-few-good-men\/#more-22271\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n<p>      &lt;!&#8211; <\/p>\n<div class=\"nextpage\">\n              <\/div>\n<p> &#8211;&gt;<\/p>\n<p>This article was posted: Friday, July 12, 2013  at  3:12 pm<\/p>\n<hr class=\"dotted_line\" \/>\n<hr class=\"dotted_line\" \/><!-- share and follow --><br \/>\n      <!-- end of share and follow --><\/p>\n<hr class=\"dotted_line\" \/>\n<hr class=\"dotted_line\" \/>&lt;!&#8211; this is where we need to show the related articles  <\/p>\n<div class=\"related_articles_container\">\n<h3 class=\"sub_titles\">Related Articles<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&#8211;&gt;<br \/>\n        <!--\n       \n    (function() {\n        var params =\n        {\n            id: \"a3dc814a-f2d1-4910-a7b2-ef525a4928a7\",\n            d:  \"aW5mb3dhcnMuY29t\",\n            wid: \"7496\"\n        };\n\n        var qs=\"\";for(var key in params){qs+=key+\"=\"+params[key]+\"&amp;\"}qs=qs.substring(0,qs.length-1);\n        document.write('');\n    })();\n\n\t\t--> <\/p>\n<p>Republished with permission from: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.infowars.com\/nullification-and-a-few-good-men\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Nullification and \u201cA Few Good Men\u201d\">Infowars<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Diane Rufinotenthamendmentcenter.com July 12, 2013 I am an attorney.
