Obama's Regulatory Czar Sunstein: President, not courts, should interpret law
Topics: Political News and commentaries"Beliefs and commitments' of nation's leader should supersede judges" - Cass Sunstein, 2006 Yale Law School paper.Clearly, the views of Cass Sunstein fit like OJ's glove with Barack Obama's agenda and his ruthless quest for power. Sunstein has been a main participant in a movement that openly seeks to create a "progressive" consensus as to what the U.S. Constitution should provide for by the year 2020. It also suggests strategy for how liberal lawyers and judges might bring such a constitutional regime into being.
As Aaron Klein writes:
The interpretation of federal law should be made not by judges but by the beliefs and commitments of the U.S. president and those around him, according to President Obama's newly confirmed regulatory czar, Cass Sunstein.Read it all ..."There is no reason to believe that in the face of statutory ambiguity, the meaning of federal law should be settled by the inclinations and predispositions of federal judges. The outcome should instead depend on the commitments and beliefs of the President and those who operate under him," argued Sunstein.
This statement was the central thesis of Sunstein's 2006 Yale Law School paper, "Beyond Marbury: The Executive's Power to Say What the Law Is." The paper, in which he argues the president and his advisers should be the ones to interpret federal laws, was obtained and reviewed by WND.
