On February 27, this writer's article, titled "America's Supremes: Court Over Constitution" said the following:
In all three branches of government, "America was always ruled by men, not laws, who lie, connive, misinterpret, and pretty much do what they want for their own self-interest and powerful constituents. (Like today), In 1787, "the people" who mattered most were elitists. The American revolution substituted new management for old. Everything changed but stayed the same under:"
-- an illusory democracy;
-- a powerful president; a virtual dictator in times of war;
-- a corrupted Congress representing privilege, not people; and
-- a separate judiciary able (through "judicial review") to overrule Congress and the Executive, but most often goes along; power supports power, the kind today heading America toward tyranny, already well advanced with obliging High Court help.
