but state constitutions are not hard to change. bethe federal military would withdrawn from the south, republican-controlled state governments might fall pretty quickly and unreconstructed whites would simply write new state constitutions disenfranchising blacks. the raw also promises from the southern states when they were readmitted to congressional representation that they would never disfranchised anyone who had already been enfranchised. the problem with those conditions is many people thought they were unconstitutional. not obvious that congress can require states in exchange for the congressional representation to make undertakings that other states are not required to make. finally, once the 14th amendment was ratified in 1868, section two would impose pressure on southern states not to disenfranchise blacks by requiring that their congressional representation be diminished if they did so, but it is not inconceivable that southern states would have been willing to pay that price in the late 19th century. congress didn't do that much that

connected with that, decisions that move toward a vision of the constitution that gives the federal government more power. it is a reading of the constitution to do genuinely national things. this is the flashpoint between jefferson and marshall. it is important to think about john marshall's legacy of building up the legitimacy of the supreme court. john j was offered this appointment and he turned down because he did not think it was a good job. marshall sits on the court for 34 years. during this time, he is nominated by john adams. john adams is seceded by a series of democratic republicans. they are all looking to lay claim to the constitution. they'll put supreme justices on the court to limit the position of the federal government. but marshall, through his openness to compromise, helped forge the court together. one of the great innovations was to move beyond the practice were each justice would write his own opinions, to instead issuing opinions of the court. marshall writes the vast majority of the courts decisions. unlike today, they tend to be unanimous even on divisive issues. the

federal court. even in this arcane area, justice thomas's vision was clear. the constitutionests the judicial power in the judiciary not executive branch agencies. regarding both justice scalia and thomas, the interpretive processes are the very bedrock of due process, fair notice, and the rule of law. and thomasâs opinion demonstrates those principles are missing in our current administrative state. in my view, the two issues are one and the same. just as regulatory agencies should constrain their actions to the forecorners of their statutory authority, judges must enforce those statutory limits. just as agencies must provide due process to parties like the sacketts, judges must faithfully enforce the constitutionâs structural proprotections which exests to preserve individual liberty and personal property rights. and justice agencies owe the public fair notice of the rules, courts must interpret statutes and the constitution as the public would understand them according to the plain meaning of the text. due process, fair notice, originalism, and texturallism. that's what th
