The Judiciary Continued
From McLEAN's Edition, New York.
HAMILTON
Federalist Paper #82
"The principles established in a former paper1 teach us that the States will retain all PRE-EXISTING authorities which may not be exclusively delegated to the federal head"
I cannot help but remember those authorities he spoke of in the last couple papers. Not once did he mention a citizen vs their own state. Yet another way of saying that these moral issues should not be brought to the supreme courts.
"Those of Japan, not less than of New York, may furnish the objects of legal discussion to our courts."
My how the opinions of our leaders have changed. Back then it was our law being supreme. If a foreigner uses our court system, the case will be tried according to OUR laws. Now we have judges who want to use their laws for our local cases! Two neighbors suing each other could be swayed by Italian law by their standards. Does that make much sense? It bypasses our Constitution and I think they are pushing for this because it is getting ever harder for these liberals to defend their ideas against the Constitution. So they are trying to use this as an excuse to work around the Constitution. How anyone in their right mind can support this kind of thinking in beyond me.
Sorry it was a short one today. Short paper and lots of stuff reiterated throughout the paper anyways. Tomorrow should be a nice long one.
