The states had power over almost everything in those days and that's the way they wanted it. The Federal government was needed for national defense, matters related to interstate commerce, and protection of constitutional rights. Unfortunately in Marbury v Madison the SCOTUS gave itself the power to legislate from the bench so 535 congressmen, 50 state legislatures and the White House can be trumped by 5 old farts in robes. There is nobody who can over rule them. Jackson may have been the only president to challenge them but in Worcester, there was really nothing to enforce. |
