context under which john marshall became chief justice of the united states. the myth surrounding the chief justice is that john j sent his letter to president adams after he had been nominated and confirmed within which he depicted the court as follows. i left the bench convinced under a system so defective the court would not obtain the energy, weight and dignity which are national to a -- government nor require public confidence and respect which as a last resort it should possess. he declined. this set in motion the last sequence of events in which john marshall was not the inevitable nominee. president adams was determined to elevate a sitting member. he hoped questioning would be the one. would be the one. he had his son working to convince jared ingersoll to accept the seat that would be vacated if one of the sitting was elevated. so he is the accidental chief justice. bit said he took the between his teeth and had two missions. the first was to gainsay john jay and get the court the asition it deserved to have a coequal branch of government. he announce

and in particular, who was not john marshall, his distant cousin who he, quite frankly, despised. was amity between the two leitmotif from the 1790's on. indeed, in a strangely prophetic letter to james madison in 1790, he complained about marshall and said we need to find something better to do with him to get him out of the way. "nothing could be better done than to make him a judge." well, that which became true, much to jefferson's chagrin. the theory would be that william johnson would be an ardent supporter of the jeffersonian approach to things. one small problem -- they selected him on the recommendation of the secretary of the treasury, his name sent to the senate, confirmed, james madison sent him a letter saying congratulations, would you accept? a rather strange pattern in those days. no due diligence was overtaken and they were unaware of the fact that johnson, while on the south carolina court, authored an opinion which if it had come to light have given at least distress if not downright apoplexy to thomas jefferson. why? because in that opinion he did two things tha

it's funny that john marshall was our fourth chief justice. people would think of him as the first because of this ruling. was it immediately known how significant it was or did it play out over time? elizabeth: the significance played out over time. the chief justice, john marshall certainly knew the import of , what he was doing. again, who's doing it in a way where he wouldn't cause rancor and we can talk about how one of the key roles of a chief justice is exactly that, to preserve the court's role but do it in a way -- definitely deftly preserves the structure and doesn't provoke. he mentioned chief justice hughes and fdr's court packing scheme. this was the point when we saw the import of marbury versus madison coming into play. it's another great story in history. host: let me work my way through history a bit more. one thing before we leave this case. i understand that the court under marshall also established the tradition of speaking with one voice on opinions. before that there had been many chief justices with many opinions. what i

written, among his books, john marshall, definer of a nation, which was a new york times notable book, and in american life, also a notable book for the new york times. he is a graduate of stan and columbia university and taught at the university of toronto for 35 years before joining the faculty of marshall university in huntington, west virginia, where he is the john marshall professor of political science. it is with great pleasure, jean edward smith. jean: thank you very much. it is a pleasure to speak at the franklin d roosevelt library. this is i think my 25th visit back to the library. but my first time here as the speaker, and i am honored. my remarks today might be entitled franklin d roosevelt, liberalism without apology. if there is a subtitle, it would fdr, 60anced look at years afterwards. i intend to be provocative. for more than a generation, americans have been told that government is the problem. not the solution. college campuses think tanks across the country, libertarians felt the urge to remove government from our lives lives, . this thinking has led to privatizat

john marshall harland, the only one who ever owned a slave becomes a great dissenter on these things. most of them, you know, these are not issues of great importance to them. they're much more interested in the rights of corporations. using the 14th amendment. they're much more interested in the balance of the states and the federal system. i just think they are going down the wrong path. another point, very important, there was other jurisprudence being proposed at that very time. it is not like the supreme court chose the only available path. black and white. putting forward very strong critiques of supreme court jurisprudence. those ideas are still out there. if we get a better supreme court one of these days, what i would like to see them do, what i would like to see them do is have the, you know, gumption to say we have been pretty much wrong for the last 75 years. let's start again. they don't tend to do that. >> right. [laughter] >> this whole question of legal precedents in jurisprudence. a formal parameter of. >> they adhere to president until they don't like president and t

john marshall is an assistant professor at northwestern university and author of watergate's legacy and the press the investigative impulse he says the public inquiry is mark a significant new phase in the investigation what i think we're going to see happen is the inquiry turned from an investigation stage primarily to more of a performance stage now that we have some of the transcripts coming out people are so seeing it with with their eyes the words that the witnesses have been saying and then what next week when the live hearings start which will be televised and i'm sure streamed all over social media people are going to see for themselves the witnesses and hear for themselves the words and whether the chairman shift and chairman navl or i can run hearings that are persuasive to the public and perform in a way that makes the impeachment inquiry seem like it's a fair and thorough process that could really sway public opinion in contrast if the house republicans are able to perform in a way to try to make the impeachment process seem like it's chaotic and unfair and i'm sure they're

that means ultimately you don't care about what chief justice john marshall said in the iconic case. it's our job. it is emphatically the province of the judicial department to say what the law is and that's what the courts are for. they should litigate these issues. if they want important testimony than it clearly is, they should be willing to take the step to use the court system but they are not willing to do it. they are in a rush to achieve this foreordained conclusion. >> laura: andy. >> laura, can i say one thing? aside from what ken said which i emphatically agree with, how crazy is this. what they are saying is we have a crisis in the regime. somebody who's unfit to be president who is in the office. every second he's in the office he's endangering the country and we are going to take care of it right after we get back from our ten day vacation. [laughter] for thanksgiving. by the way, we can't go to court because we don't have time for that. >> laura: we've got to get to christmas. skip to the next holiday. it's not just about thanksgiving. it's about christmas and new year

. >> of course john marshall said we are a government of laws not men go today he would say men and womennd the rule of law has been undermined the courts have said it that trump has conducted himself as though the law is to be sidestepped and is meaningless and is able to control events without regard to the rule of law. in the book i call him the anti- legal president because he doesn't like judges who rule against him with a judge rules against him, he is the mexican judge or the obama judge. there is no respect for a judge to interpret the law and apply the law as written. and that undermines the whole society and mentioning justice scalia someone i did not admire in many ways but i do admire that he said what really protects our liberties is not the bill of rights anybody can have a bill of rights what protects our liberties is the separation of powers that coequal branches of government with checks and balances on the excesses of each department and in particular the executive. hamilton and madison did not want a man on horseback that was a king but someone subject to the rule of la
