John Marshall severely outstepped his boundaries in Marbury v. Madison with establishing the principle of judicial review. How can the American people accept this extreme judicial activism — creating new powers for the judiciary not defined in the Constitution? Marshall essentially gives the judiciary the power to overturn laws made by Congress. These are not powers that should be granted to the judiciary. The people did not vote for these judges. Redefinition of a law’s terms is for the legislature to do, not for a judge. Marshall has no right to legislate from the bench.

I hope you will join me in my quest to discredit the process of judicial review.
