Let's put this into perspective: Look at the 18th amendment. Obama doesn't want Prohibition to happen again.
Obama is just a figurehead, yet gets all the flak.
The Judicial Branch has much more power than BOTH Legislative and Executive branches put together. If the Judicial branch thinks something is unconstitutional, they'll call it out. So far, they haven't called anything out, so it must be constitutional, right?

The judicial branch can't exactly do something until someone brings a case to them.

[quote] The Judicial Branch has much more power than BOTH Legislative and Executive branches put together. [/quote] This statement couldn't possibly be any more false.
-
How? The judicial branch can strike down any law deemed unconstitutional, and they don't have a definitive role in the Constitution. The Founding Fathers didn't even really consider the Judicial branch as a branch of government until Marbury vs. Madison when the Judicial Branch established Judicial Review for themselves. Basically, the Judicial Branch's opinion = More powerful than Congress and Executive since they interpret the Constitution in many ways.
-
The Judicial branch has the least amount of power, and you would know this if you read the federalist papers. The Judicial branch only has the power to make judgments. They cannot enforce their judgments and they do not control the purse or the sword. They merely make decisions. It's pretty simple. Even if they declare a law unconstitutional it is up to the executive branch to enforce their ruling.

>federalist papers >created before Marbury v Madison >lel Oh right, that's why landmark cases don't make amendments like Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas or Roe v. Wade. You know, I would think that opinions would never hold as facts or become law, then I saw the Supreme Court.
