The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Constitution Audiobook (Free)
Summary:
As the government claims to be always a representative republic, somehow hot-button topics from gay relationship to the allocation of Florida’s presidential electors always seem to be decided by unelected judges. What provides them the proper to decide such issues? The judges say it’s the Constitution.
Author and regulation teacher Kevin Gutzman demonstrates there is very little relationship between the Constitution ratified by the thirteen areas a lot more than two centuries ago as well as the “constitutional laws” imposed about The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Constitution upon us since that time. Instead of the intended system of state-level decision makers and elected officials, judges have given us a centralized system where bureaucrats and appointed officials make a lot of the important policies.
The Constitution guarantees our rights and freedoms, but activist judges are threatening those extremely rights because of the Supreme Court’s willingness to replacement its own opinions for the perfectly constitutional laws enacted by “we, the people” through our elected representatives.
As Professor Gutzman displays, constitutional rules is supposed to use the Constitution’s basic meaning to avoid judges, presidents, and congresses from overstepping their power. If we want to return to the Founding Fathers’ vision from the Republic, if we want the Constitution enforced in the manner it was told the people during its ratification, after that we must overcome the “received intelligence” about what constitutional rules is certainly. The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Constitution is an important step in that direction.
