Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1958, Chief Justice Earl Warren claimed the Supreme Court had the exclusive power to interpret the Constitution and said its authority had been respected by the nation for 200 year. Even for Warren, it was a remarkable misstatement. Just how remarkable is the subject of The Last Democrats, the story of how four presidents, Jefferson, Madison, Jackson, and Lincoln - defeated claims of judicial supremacy, and how a fifth president, Franklin Roosevelt, lost everything they had gained. Drawing on letters, diaries, debates, and speeches, and filled with anecdotes that add color and drama, such as Lincoln's decision to issue an arrest warrent for Chief Justice Taney, the book recounts a largely forgotten history. The story begins in 1787 when a group of delegates to the Federal Convention gathered at Benjamin Franklin's home in Philadelphia to enjoy a csak of London stout and ale. In four months, this assembly of demi-gods, as Jefferson called them, created the first modern government run by the poeple. Popular sovereignty did not extend to the Court, but this book describes how the Framers made sure its power were limited. The story proceeds to the struggle between Jefferson and Chief Justice Marshall, including the decision in Marbury v. Madison that future courts used as a springboard in their rise to power. Jefferson said the Court twisted the Constitution like a piece of wax, and this book tells how he used impeachment proceedings to curb its power. The story continues with Jackson's refusal to enforce two Marshall rulings, followed by Taney's inflammatory ruling in Dred Scott v. Sanford that called blacks "an inferior class of beings." Lincoln openly defied Taney, but the practice of overriding election officials returned 30 years later as conservative judges blocked liberal efforts to institute social and economic reofrms. Progressives such as Teddy Roosevelt and Robert LaFollette attacked the rulings and paid dearly: Roosevelt was charged with "legalized terrorism" for opposing the courts, while LaFollette was called a Bolshevik, accused of flying the red flag. The Franklin Roosevelt chapter describes his court-packing plan and explains how one of his supporters, "Bolshevik Burt" Wheeler, led a mutiny against the plan in the Senate, where FDR was compared to Stalin, Mussolini, and Hitler. The Court claimed victory in the battle for supremacy in 1958, as presidents from Eisenhower to Bush stood by while the courts rewrote the Constitution on everything from school prayer to abortion, racial quotas, gay marriage, and the War on Terror. The book concludes with a discussion of the ideas that have been suggested to return the Court to the limited role envisioned by the Framers. -- from dust jacket.

Download or read book President by Massacre written by Barbara Alice Mann and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2019-08-27 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: President by Massacre pulls back the curtain of "expansionism," revealing how Andrew Jackson, William Henry Harrison, and Zachary Taylor massacred Indians to "open" land to slavery and oligarchic fortunes. President by Massacre examines the way in which presidential hopefuls through the first half of the nineteenth century parlayed militarily mounted land grabs into "Indian-hating" political capital to attain the highest office in the United States. The text zeroes in on three eras of U.S. "expansionism" as it led to the massacre of Indians to "open" land to African slavery while luring lower European classes into racism's promise to raise "white" above "red" and "black." This book inquires deeply into the existence of the affected Muskogee ("Creek"), Shawnee, Sauk, Meskwaki ("Fox"), and Seminole, before and after invasion, showing what it meant to them to have been so displaced and to have lost a large percentage of their members in the process. It additionally addresses land seizures from these and the Tecumseh, Tenskwatawa, Black Hawk, and Osceola tribes. President by Massacre is written for undergraduate and graduate readers who are interested in the Native Americans of the Eastern Woodlands, U.S. slavery, and the settler politics of U.S. expansionism.
