There are 8 comments on 特朗普的最高法院提名人应该得到确认吗?

  1. 我完全同意法律应该在今天的社会中占上风的观点。 Originalism is a failed concept when we try to apply law of the 1700s to the world today. I appreciate Professor Beermann’s insights and opinions here.

  2. How about asking him his opinion as to the Senate’s consitutional duty to have acted on Obama’s Supreme Court nomination? 原旨主义者对此怎么说?

  3. 如果宪法中有任何关于拥有财产的白人男性的内容,那么反对原旨主义的论点可能会有一些道理。 However, it’s really not there. Moreover the framers were obviously not myopically bound to the 18th century – they used all the history they had available, particularly classical Greece and Rome. 他们为人性写了宪法,直到马克思和尼采说服许多人他们有更好的选择,这被认为是不可改变的。 制宪者将宪法写入永恒,你可以从它是如何被设计和书写中看到这一点。 任何在新濠影汇赌场党人的论文中看到分散的,半荒野的殖民地美国的人都需要一个新的眼镜处方。 Pennsylvania as a whole, including the largest colonial city of Philadelphia, didn’t even have 500,000 people in 1789, whereas just the city of Rome in the first century may have had 800,000 or more. 阅读《新濠影汇赌场党人文集》,人们可以清楚地认识到罗马时代的暴民、富有的阴谋集团和狡猾的暴君、克伦威尔的残暴、雅典的沧桑和斯巴达的极权主义。 The Federalist papers were constantly balancing the mob against the elites – that ought to sound pretty current, right?

    1. That said, I don’t agree with originalism as the one right way to interpret the constitution. I think it’s a guide post, but with the Second Amendment, for example, the Framers had no idea what modern weaponry would look like and how it would be used against innocent civilians. In that case, I would argue that Framers’ intent alone is not adequate and for an intelligent result, we need to take into account present day context and allow some regulation of gun ownership in the U.S. This is but one example, and I believen there are many others that require a hybrid approach to analyzing the constitutionality of the given legislation. That said, given only what I know of Judge Gorsuch from media sources, I would vote to confirm because given his other qualifications I don’t believe his reliance on originalism is enough to vote against his appointment.

  4. 这篇文章很有见地,我很欣赏他的观点。 然而,关于这个问题:如果你是参议员,你会投票支持戈萨奇法官吗? Dr. Beermann like most lawyers doesn’t answer the question so the reader can logic his answer.

  5. 我认为这是一个很好的和令人信服的讨论提名人和什么可能是参议院的好角色。

    我对这一分析以及对这一提名的许多分析的担忧是,戈萨奇取代了斯卡利亚,一个非常保守的原旨主义者取代了另一个,因此没什么大不了的。 Implicit in that notion is the idea that the Court’s ideological make-up is cast in stone when it should not be that way.

    我很感兴趣的是,我们如何看待基于原意主义的戈萨奇(顺便说一下,我也认为这是解释宪法的一种不充分的方式),会对过去一些最重要的案件进行投票,比如布朗诉教育局案和贝克诉卡尔案。 如果我们认为他是一个持不同政见者,那么参议院应该拒绝他。

  6. ‘Right to bear arms’ is mentioned in the Constitution but ‘Right to an abortion’ must be in invisible ink on the back of the document. It, abortion, gay marriage,… does fit under the Tenth Amendment of the Constitution.
