Homework Help: U.S. Government

Posted by Susie on Saturday, October 16, 2010 at 4:11pm.

I'm struggling with answering this question and I would appreciate any help one could offer. I'm needing to answer the following question in paragraph form:
Which one of these two philosophies do you think the Supreme Court should follow: judicial activism or judicial restraint?

The question is WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Read Section 2 carefully. Make sure you understand what the Supreme Court of the US was created to do.

Then read about judicial activism and judicial restraint and see what you think.

I support judicial activism because the Constitution was never meant to cover all situations, especially those 200 years later. Think of Roe v. Wade and Brown v. Board of Education. Here are other landmark decisions.

Thank you for your help. I just wasn't sure which direction I really wanted to go. I needed some opinions to just need me in a direction.

1st Amendment help.

How can one argue persuasively that the status quo of Defamation (i.e., New York V. Sullivan) should be changed.

Any help or direction one could give, would be appreciated.
