What is the sole function of the United States Supreme Court? It is to decide what is and is not constitutional.
Excerpted from an article at truthrevolt.com:
OnMonday, Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor stated that shebelieved that women and minorities had to crash the halls of power inorder to “change the dialogue in this country.” She saidthat “money” was the obstacle to women and minorities having asay in government, adding, “we\’re going to have to work thepolitical system at the highest level.”
Sotomayorwas speaking at the University of Washington, pushing her book, MyBeloved Life. Astudent questioned if she was optimistic about the future of thecountry. She stated, “I\’m very optimistic about the power ofminorities to change the dialogue in this country.”
Is Sonia Sotomayor\’s understanding of her role – to “work the political system” and to push “the power of minorities” over ruling on constitutionality – consonant with what a Supreme Court justice\’s role actually is?
Why is she on the Supreme Court?
