Professor Rotunda Quoted on Supremacy of Judicial Review
December 18, 2011
On December 18th, Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich appeared on CBS’ “Face the Nation” and discussed, at length, his views on how the judiciary relates to the other branches of government. After reviewing the interview, PolitiFact.com decided to analyze the legitimacy of Gringrich’s statement that “The Warren court asserted by itself that the Supreme Court was supreme over the president and Congress.” Professor Ronald Rotunda was among the few asked to contribute to the analysis, and he was quoted as saying, “The supremacy of judicial review has served to protect our constitutional rights for over two centuries.” Read more about Gingrich’s arguments and PolitiFact.com’s conclusion by following this link.
