Wrong about Marbury vs Madison
Just learned this in Pol sci class this week, but Marbury vs Madison was significantly less important than people often claim. Judicial review existed before that case and had been used three times, in one case to strike down a law. The founders all had some idea of the concept as well. The importance of judicial review didn't change that much after the case either; in fact, Andrew Jackson once actually ignored a Supreme Court ruling related to an Indian reservation.

 * Just caught this, I'll look into it. Actually, I should probably remove that section, as its less about US politics and more about US government.-- 22:21, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I won't directly challenge you, Anon, since maybe things have changed, but most law schools taught that it was the single biggest event in Judicial history, adn without it, law would be... well, boring. ;-)  I'd be really curious why the views are so different.  maybe cause it's law school and they have to tell you why it's a good thing?  ;-)[[Image:green mowse.png|25px]]Godot Fire!
