(42,662 posts)Leaving aside the issue of whether Judicial review is "allowed" by the Constitution, how do you propose to take away the judiciary's role in that regard: do you think Congress can pass a law that strips the court of that authority (without the court holding that such law is itself unconstitutional)? Do you think there is any chance of a constitutional amendment to strip the court of judicial review authority? And if the court was stripped of judicial review authority, how would the constitutionality of laws passed by Congress be deteremined? For example, if your proposal became a reality and a future Congress, not withstanding the 13th Amendment to the Constitution passed a law allowing people to own slaves again, would there be any recourse?
