- waps 12y agoI prefer the term "pro-democracy" and pro "having a law". Both parties have mastered using presidential appointments to the supreme court to "change" the law. This is very bad, as they're not supposed to be in control of that. The judiciary's "check and balances" check is mostly to prevent congress from going against the constitution (ridiculous example: voting slavery back in with 51% of votes). That is their function.
